Custom Swing Tags & Hang Tags: Printed Locally in New Zealand
Custom Swing Tags & Hang Tags for Apparel, Gifts, Breweries and More
If your product sits on a shelf, hangs on a rack, or needs that final branded touch, custom swing tags are a smart, high-impact way to elevate your presentation. Ideal for apparel, gifts, cosmetics, breweries and other consumer products, our locally produced tags help communicate your brand’s personality and quality at a glance. We’re based in Wellington and deliver New Zealand–wide, with fast turnaround and flexible order sizes to suit both short runs and large-scale production.
Premium Printing, Precise Cutting, Endless Possibilities
Our swing tags combine premium print quality with versatile finishing options. We print on a wide range of materials including satin, matte, packaging boards and craft stocks, with options like pearlescent papers for a subtle metallic sheen. One of our biggest advantages is our computer-controlled die cutting, which lets us cut to almost any shape without the cost of traditional cutting dies. It’s perfect for short runs, unique shapes, or brands wanting to stand out without a big upfront investment.
We’ve produced custom hang tags for a wide range of New Zealand businesses, each with their own unique branding goals. For example, Seventhwave Wetsuits needed premium swing tags to reflect the craftsmanship of their locally made wetsuits, so we created elegant, durable tags that elevated their in-store presentation. Salt District Brewing came to us for growler tags that would look great behind the bar and hold up in busy hospitality settings—we delivered precisely cut kraft tags with a tactile, handcrafted feel. And when Ground Up Brewing launched a new series, we produced custom-shaped tags that reinforced their brand identity and gave their bottles a polished, professional finish.

Thoughtfully Coordinated: Wedding Day Printed Items for Leith & Piri
When Leith & Piri came to us ahead of their February 2025 wedding, they needed a full suite of printed items, with travel plans beginning shortly before the event and a public holiday cutting into production time, the brief required careful planning and calm execution.
Piri has trusted us with print projects for over a decade, so she knew we’d sweat the details. This project brought together multiple wedding elements, personalised menus doubling as place cards, a seating chart, custom-shaped table numbers, guest book signage, Save the Date cards and a large removable vinyl decal for the marquee backdrop.
We printed the personalised menus, table numbers, guest book signs and save the date cards digitally on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, using 298gsm Mohawk Bright White I-Tone Felt for a tactile, elegant finish. The AccurioPress’s real-time colour control ensured every piece remained consistent, even across many one-off items. Table numbers were precision cut on our JWEI digital cutter for clean, custom shapes.
For the larger pieces, we printed the seating chart on Avery Dennison MPI 2904 vinyl using our Roland XR-640, then mounted it to 3mm Paylite for a refined, lightweight result suitable for the venue. The removable black vinyl decal was computer-cut from removable vinyl to meet venue requirements without compromising impact.

Emporio Coffee, Branded Beautifully: Everyday Materials That Deliver
Emporio Coffee has been a cornerstone of Wellington’s café scene since 2000—roasting premium beans, supporting ethical supply chains, and delivering exceptional coffee to over 50 cafes nationwide. When they rebranded in 2016, Emporio needed a local print partner who could keep pace with their day-to-day needs and match the quality of their product. With their HQ just across the street from our Walter Street shop, it didn’t take long for us to connect—and earn their trust.
Working alongside designer Gary Stewart from The Gas Project, we took Emporio’s refreshed brand and brought it to life across a wide range of printed collateral. From barista handbooks and branded order pads to stickers, notebooks and custom decals, we produced high-quality, durable materials that worked in busy hospitality environments. Most jobs were small to mid-sized runs—perfect for our digital print setup—and needed a quick turnaround without cutting corners.
One standout was their barista handbook: a wiro-bound reference tool designed for heavy use in training settings. Clear print, rugged build, on-brand to the last detail.
Ben and the team have always been incredibly helpful, friendly and professional… always makes time to discuss our projects, create solutions and produce very high quality products. – Simon Maguire, Emporio Coffee
Nearly a decade on, Emporio is still a loyal client—and we’re proud to support a fellow Wellington original.

Subtle Branding, Full Impact: Premium Coasters for Regent
Just before their grand opening, the team behind Regent Wellington’s elevated cocktail pub—came to us with a simple but smart request: branded coasters. Not just to protect their beautiful hardwood bar tops, but to make sure every photo of a perfectly poured pint or ice-cold martini shared online subtly featured their brand.
They started with 1,000 units to trial the concept. Six months later, we’ve produced over 10,000 coasters for them—each one pulling double duty as drink protector and brand ambassador. Scroll through their Instagram and you’ll spot them everywhere. Branded, consistent, and quietly powerful.
To bring this to life, we used our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, equipped with AIT and IQ-501 for real-time quality control and flawless colour consistency. Every coaster was printed on 275gsm Drink Coaster Board—a stiff, absorbent stock made specifically for the demands of bars and busy service. It prints beautifully, holds up under moisture, and maintains its shape through heavy use. Printed single-sided, in full-colour, sharp details and no colour drift—ideal for high-traffic hospitality environments where quality gets noticed.

Premium Training Tool: Custom Card Pack + Wallet-Style Carton for ComplyWith
ComplyWith is a Wellington-based legal compliance platform helping organisations across New Zealand get their compliance right, without the guesswork. For their “Building Blocks of Good Compliance” initiative, they needed a premium, tactile training tool: 300 sets of custom double-sided playing cards, neatly packaged in branded cartons.
Each set included 28 custom-sized cards (76mm x 110mm, rounded corners), printed in full colour both sides. The goal was to turn complex compliance ideas into something accessible, hands-on and memorable, using the power of a well-designed physical tool to reinforce learning. The impact was clear: just two months after the initial run, ComplyWith returned for a second order of another 300 units.
The project involved tight deadlines, late-stage design changes and multiple decision-makers, so speed, precision and proactive support were non-negotiable. We produced structural carton prototypes early, advised on format options (wallet vs tuck-in vs two-piece), and supported Salted Herring’s design team with precise, production-ready dielines.
The final packs were printed on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, delivering flawless colour consistency across all sets. Cards were printed on 300gsm Pro-Digital Silk stock and matte laminated both sides for durability and smooth handling. The cartons were printed on 260gsm Tiger FBB board, matte laminated one side for protection and a refined, soft-touch feel. Internal messaging beneath the flap completed the unboxing experience.
"We always receive the best service and quality products from Colourcraft. They have a super speedy turnaround and their team is very professional." — Kathryn McCormack, ComplyWith
