Built to Last: Custom Hang Tags for Seventhwave’s Handcrafted Wetsuits
Seventhwave has been leading the charge in sustainable, high-performance wetsuits since 1987—designed and made right here in New Zealand. Known for their custom fits and premium Japanese Yamamoto neoprene, the team needed hang tags that did justice to their product’s craftsmanship, surf culture roots, and planet-friendly values. They came to us looking for something simple, durable, and on-brand to elevate their in-store and online presentation—without compromising speed or quality.
We’ve printed and reprinted these wetsuit swing tags over several years, refining the details to get everything just right. Digitally printed in full colour on one side, with black print on the reverse, we used 283gsm Kraftpak board for its rugged texture and eco look. The smooth side gave a clean base for brand visuals and surf photography, while the rough reverse was perfect for handwritten details—thickness, seam type, size, and more. Each tag was die-cut to 45 x 95mm, ready to be tagged, packed, and shipped.
I couldn't recommend the Colourcraft team highly enough. The whole process of creating and getting our new swing tags was made so easy and they arrived in super speed time. They look amazing too!!! Super stoked. – Sarah Armstrong-Park, Seventhwave Wetsuits

Iconic Lager, Bigger Than Life: Beer Chiller Decal for Garage Project
When Garage Project needed a bold in-store presence for their Beer Beer lager at Moore Wilsons Porirua, they came straight to us.
The brief? A full-height decal of their instantly recognisable can, applied directly to the chiller door. Garage Project isn’t the type to cut corners on brand presentation, every detail needs to be spot on. And after over a decade working together, they trusted us to get it right.
We printed the oversized graphic on Avery Dennison MPI 2904, our go-to vinyl for clean application and sharp colour. Paired with a gloss DOL 2000 overlaminate, it added a durable, high-gloss finish that matched the fridge’s surface and protected against scratches, UV, and wear.
Output came from our Roland XR-640 eco-solvent printer, delivering rich, consistent colour and razor-sharp detail. The result? A seamless, vibrant install that looked factory-finished, not added later.
“Ben and the Colourcraft crew are trusted and valued suppliers. Their product is consistently delivered to specification, within agreed timeframes, and with exceptional customer service and care.” – Tim Davie, Garage Project

Reusable and Ready to Go: Free-Standing Display Panels for Fix & Fogg
Fix & Fogg, Fix & Fogg, the Wellington-based legends behind some of the world’s best nut butters, approached us with a clear brief: they needed eye-catching, portable display panels that could hold their own at food shows—and be reused across multiple events. These displays had to be easy to store, tough enough to handle transport, and most importantly, stand up.
We delivered exactly that. Using our Roland XR-640 printer, we produced vibrant, full-colour prints on Avery Dennison MPI 2904 gloss permanent vinyl. That vinyl was then mounted to 3mm Paylite panels—lightweight, durable, and clean-edged—before being precision trimmed and fitted with a fold-out strut on the reverse. The result? A crisp, freestanding panel that flat-packs for storage, stands solid on-site, and turns heads wherever it’s placed.
Over the past six months, we’ve worked closely with the Fix & Fogg team to create more than 10 different variations of these panels—ranging from menus and price lists to promotional messaging and event signage. It’s a simple, low-cost format that punches well above its weight.
Here’s what Shenae from Fix & Fogg had to say:
“The Colourcraft team are amazing. Their work is second to none and we always have a quick turnaround. Thanks Team!”

Precision in Every Deal: Custom Playing Cards for Kingsley Attwood
Kingsley Attwood, a photographer and designer with a bold, creative vision, came to us with something truly unique: a full set of custom-designed playing cards, with each of the 52 cards featuring its own illustration. Kingsley had already poured a ton of work into the design and needed a print partner who could bring it to life with care, precision, and premium quality.
We provided tailored guidance to help Kingsley prepare the artwork for production, covering how to build bleed, organise file sequencing and format everything correctly using Photoshop (which isn’t exactly known for being print-friendly). We reviewed initial layouts, offered practical advice and ensured every file was press-ready before kicking off production. Clear communication and upfront planning made the process smooth, even with a project as detailed as this one.
The final sets were printed on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, chosen for its pinpoint accuracy and consistent colour output. We used a durable 300gsm satin stock and applied a scuff-resistant laminate to give the cards a premium feel and long-lasting finish. Each card was then precision-cut on our digital die-cutter to ensure exact sizing and alignment across the set.
Fifteen custom decks, produced with care from start to finish.
