Built for Volume, Made to Move: Removable Tap Badges for Urbanaut Brewing Co.
We’ve been printing tap badges for Urbanaut Brewing Co. since the beginning, literally. They took a chance on us back in 2017 after a cold email and over 130 orders later, we’re still part of their production flow.
Based in Kingsland, Auckland, Urbanaut is known for pushing boundaries, releasing bold, international-inspired beers and pumping out fresh drops at pace. With over 200 unique beers under their belt (and counting), they needed a tap badge solution that could keep up with their release cycle and venue rotation.
We print their 73mm circular tap badges using removable-grade vinyl, designed to hold strong while the keg is on and peel away cleanly when the next beer rolls in. No sticky mess. No damaged hardware. Just easy changeovers for busy bars.
Our setup pairs Orajet removable vinyl with HP Latex 365 technology, giving us fast curing times, crisp detail and vibrant colour. The combo is ideal for breweries with high-volume needs and short-term installs, where cost, ease of use and clean removal all matter.
There’s no drama, no delays, and no hand-holding needed. After 8 years and 100+ jobs, we’ve become part of how Urbanaut moves beer, from brewery to bar, badge by badge.

Premium Design, Premium Finish: Promotional Booklet Printing for JCDC
When Palmerston North design studio JCDC needed a print partner for a truly standout project, they came to us—not because we were local, but because quality was non-negotiable. Founder Jemma Cheer was producing a luxe promotional booklet for her client, Emma Brown Design, and every detail had to land. From materials to finish, this job was about making the right impression.
We printed the internal pages using our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 for sharp colour and precise alignment, ideal for brand-led work like this. The pages were printed on 150gsm Silk Matt stock for a smooth, professional feel. For the cover, we used a 300gsm Black Notturno, chosen for its rich, tactile finish and applied gold foil detailing (handled beautifully by Windmill Press) to elevate the entire piece. The final booklets were creased, folded, and sail stitched with pink thread by Andrew from Bookbinding Etc, giving a distinctive hand-crafted edge.
This was a true collaboration between top-tier creatives. From concept to delivery, every partner brought their A-Game Jemma on design, Windmill on foil, Andrew on bind and we made sure the print held it all together.
Here’s what the client had to say in their Google review: "Wonderful service and premium quality. No task is too big, small or tricky for these guys... super smart service... always my first suggestion if anyone asks." – Jemma Cheer

Bold Branding Meets Functionality: Custom Coasters for Puffin Wine Bar
When Puffin a boutique wine bar tucked beneath The Intrepid Hotel in Wellington—reached out, they were looking for custom drink coasters that would match their refined vibe and serve a practical purpose behind the bar. Originally after 1000, they saw the value and scaled up to 3000 units, maximising their brand exposure with a lower per-unit cost.
We printed the coasters on 275gsm Drink Coaster Board—a stiff, absorbent, uncoated stock made specifically for bars and venues. Puffin’s bold branding took centre stage on the front, while the back featured ruled lines—ideal for jotting down notes, whether by the staff or their patrons. It’s a smart touch for a wine bar known for thoughtful service and attention to detail.
Print was handled on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, with automated quality control and built-in colour calibration. The result? Pin-sharp imagery and flawless consistency across all 3000 coasters. Each one was precisely diecut into a 93mm circle using our digital die-cutting machine—no cutting dies required, and no compromise on shape accuracy.
The client loved the final product and followed up almost immediately with an order for branded postcards. Here’s what they had to say:
“Always happy with the work these guys do! They make any project we’ve had for Puffin easy to complete, the colours and quality are perfect and whatever the project is they’ll make it work. Turnaround times are great and friendly comms. Can’t recommend enough! Get in touch with them.” — Hannah Wells

Crafted with Precision: Floating Rock's Premium Business Cards
At Colourcraft, we take pride in delivering premium service and exceptional quality in every project we undertake. One of our recent endeavours was working with Floating Rock, a boutique animation studio based in Wellington, Aotearoa, known for its high-quality animated cinematic experiences and slick visual effects.
For their business cards, we were supplied with a design that reflects the studio's creativity and professionalism and were asked to print a set of business cards that would leave a lasting impression.
Once the cards were printed to enhance durability, we applied a scuff-resistant matt lamination on both sides of the cards, providing a soft touch finish and ensuring they would stand up well over time. On one side, we incorporated the Floating Rock logo using a blind spot UV gloss varnish. This technique created a glossy effect that contracts with the matt laminated background.
On the reverse side of the business cards, we applied a hot stamp foiling with blue metallic foil to embellish the founder's name and the floating rock icon. The reflective metallic blue brought a touch of class, adding depth to the design and which contracted against the smooth matt laminated surface of the card.
By combining these premium finishes and attention to detail, we crafted business cards that truly represented the professionalism and quality of Floating Rock Studio.

Crafted with Love: Premium Wedding Stationery & Signage for Kriselle & Luke
Kriselle and Luke came to us in the lead-up to their wedding with a clear vision and a tight timeline. Having previously used Colourcraft for her wedding invites, Kriselle trusted us again—this time for a full suite of wedding collateral, including large-format signage, elegant table numbers, and 109 personalised name cards.
With the big day locked in for April 19 and final artwork confirmed just five days earlier, we worked fast, smart and kept things clear, simple, and efficient.
For the welcome and seating panels, we printed in bold, vibrant CMYK onto gloss white MPI 2904 vinyl, mounted to 4mm Paylite. The welcome sign was finished with steel eyelets for hanging; the seating chart, cleanly mounted and ready for easel display.
For the table numbers, name cards, and invitations, we used our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 to deliver precise colour consistency on every piece. All items were printed on 298gsm Mohawk Bright White I-Tone Felt — a textured stock chosen specifically to complement the rice paper artwork.
And the verdict? - This outstanding Google review:
“Excellent service! Working with Colourcraft was very easy—they were friendly, informative, and fast. The guidelines for preparing files were clear and detailed, and most importantly, they made sure I was happy before printing. The end product was very high quality.”
