Precision Under Pressure: Custom Card Decks & Presentation Cartons for Datacom’s Datapay Event
When Datacom came to us ahead of a high-profile Datapay event, they needed something more memorable than a brochure, something tactile, premium and engaging. The ask: 50 full sets of custom-designed signal cards (35 per set), plus sleek, branded cartons to house each deck. Oh, and they needed it all in just over a week.
Tight timelines and complex finishing? We were in our element.
We prepped the card artwork for digital print on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, chosen for its outstanding colour fidelity and precise registration. Each card was printed double-sided in CMYK on 300gsm satin stock, finished with a matt laminate for durability and a refined, scuff-resistant texture. We digitally die-cut each one to 63 x 89mm with 4mm rounded corners — spot on, every time.
For the cartons, we used 320gsm Burano Nero Black — an uncoated, deep-black board known for its rich tone and consistency. The lids were screen printed in spot UV gloss varnish to highlight the Datapay brand with impact and precision. Each carton was assembled, packed with its custom card set, and delivered in full by the client’s deadline.
Once again, we delivered premium results under pressure, with no compromises.
Serious about quality? So are we. Every detail matters—and we don’t miss.

Gold Standard Finish: Graduation Certificates for Workhub Services
Workhub Services delivers real-world transformation through their Whakamana Programme—a no-cost, eight-week course helping New Zealanders gain purpose, confidence and a pathway to employment. To celebrate each graduate’s journey, they came to us for something that felt meaningful: a Certificate of Graduation with a premium finish. Their designer had worked with us before, so even from outside Wellington, they trusted us to get the details right.
These A4 certificates were printed full colour on 300gsm Munken Pure Cream, an uncoated, tactile stock that feels every bit as refined as it looks. The highlight? A hot stamped gold foil seal applied with precision at the base of each certificate. It’s a subtle feature, but one that lifts the design and gives it a sense of formality and care.
Printed on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, we ensured crisp alignment and sharp colour throughout. The end result was clean, considered and built to reflect the professionalism of the programme and its graduates.

Made to Last: Durable Directional Signage for Fix & Fogg’s Wellington Site
When Fix & Fogg makers of some of the best nut butter on the planet—needed clear, functional signage for their Wellington production site, they came to us. The brief? Durable, easy-to-read signs that could withstand the elements while guiding delivery drivers, customers and visitors around their busy factory space.
We printed two outdoor panels showing delivery/pickup locations and warehouse opening hours. These weren’t about flashy branding—they were about clear communication, hard-wearing materials, and signage that stays legible and professional, no matter the weather.
We printed on our Roland XR-640, using eco-solvent inks known for their resistance to fading, scratches, and moisture. For the vinyl, we went with Avery Dennison MPI 2904, paired with DOL 2100 matt laminate to lock in colour and protect from UV and abrasion. The graphics were then mounted to 4mm ACM panels and fully edge-wrapped—meaning the graphics continue around the sides for a cleaner, more polished appearance.
Here’s the kicker: these photos were taken five months after install. The signs still look as good as the day they left our shop—a solid reminder that quality materials and solid print work matter.

Gold Standard Finish: Custom Foil-Stamped Cards for Ombra
When Ombra refreshed their branding, they needed print that matched their space: polished, premium, and built with care. As one of Wellington’s most beloved Italian spots, Ombra’s attention to detail is baked into everything from their seasonal cicchetti to their copper-piped fitout. Their team knew their print collateral had to live up to that standard. So when it came time to produce their new business cards and gift vouchers, they came straight to us.
Premium Stocks, Flawless Foil, No Compromises
Both the business cards and gift vouchers were printed on Rives Tradition Bright White 320gsm, a tactile, premium stock that holds ink beautifully and feels as refined as the restaurant it represents. Each piece was printed with two spot colours (Black and Cool Grey 6), followed by precision-aligned gold foil on the logo. The gift vouchers also featured individually numbered backs for traceability. Because the foil alignment had to be perfect to the fraction of a millimetre to align correctly with the logo, we offset-printed the colour layers first, then foil-stamped each piece to ensure total accuracy.
For Brands Where Every Detail Matters
This wasn’t just another print job. It was about precision—matching the brand, the materials, and the quality. We handled everything from proofs to foil alignment, sweating the small stuff so Ombra’s team didn’t have to.

Delivering Trust And Quality: The Print Behind Comprendé’s Property Owner’s Guide Booklet
At Colourcraft, we focus on premium print solutions that make a statement. Our ongoing work for Comprendé, a forward-thinking property management company, proves this.

Printed in full colour on 150gsm satin stock, the booklet was saddle-stitched and trimmed to size, resulting in a professional finish that reflects Comprendé’s commitment to relationship-driven service, expert advice, and a personalised approach that resonates with both property owners and tenants.
