PartsTrader ‘Parts Request’ Pads: Streamlining Automotive Ordering for Mechanics
PartsTrader is a leading digital marketplace connecting automotive repairers, parts suppliers, and insurers across New Zealand and the United States. They wanted a practical tool to help mechanics quickly identify the parts they needed while encouraging them to use the PartsTrader platform for orders.
We designed and printed a custom A5 pad, digitally produced on 100gsm Advanced Laser stock in CMYK on one side. Each pad included 21 pages with a sturdy backing card, glued at the top edge and trimmed to A5, with a drilled hole for convenient handling. Digital printing allowed us to personalise the last page of each pad, rewarding users who placed 20 part orders and including messages throughout the pad showing progress toward the reward—turning a simple pad into a motivating, interactive tool for mechanics.
The pads were finished to be robust and practical for workshop use, while still reflecting PartsTrader’s professional brand. Each page printed clearly and vibrantly, ensuring legibility even in busy, hands-on environments. The combination of digital precision and careful finishing meant the pads were ready for immediate use, delivered directly to PartsTrader via courier.

Crafting eRangers: Printing a Custom Playing Card Game
At Colourcraft, we are committed to quality in every project. When Wilderlab, an award-winning eDNA testing laboratory in Wellington, asked us to bring eRangers to life, we gladly accepted the challenge.
eRangers, designed for 2-5 players, offers a journey into ecosystem exploration through eDNA discovery. Players navigate the delicate balance of nurturing diversity, restoring native species, and mitigating environmental risks, all while fostering conservation strategies and ecological resilience.
The playing card game, initially created by Mikayla for a university assignment, evolved into a beautifully illustrated card game. We were entrusted with bringing Mikayla's vision to life by printing 150 sets of custom-designed playing cards on 300gsm satin stock, matt laminated for a soft touch and durable finish.
Then we designed a custom carton structure using a quality 260gsm Carton Board, precisely sized to house the 124 playing cards alongside a folded rule sheet.
At Colourcraft, we take pride in bringing our clients' ideas to life with precision and care. As an independent small business, we deliver quality work and ensure that every project reflects our commitment to excellence.

Precision in Every Fold: Branded Packaging Sleeves for Follo
Follo is a Wellington-based tech company creating premium GPS trackers designed specifically for e-bikes and scooters. With full custom packaging still in development, they needed a fast, reliable interim solution: branded packaging sleeves that looked sharp enough for retail, but didn’t blow the budget.
They came to us with final artwork and a short timeline. The sleeves had to slide perfectly over a small box, include a hang tab for retail displays, and feel premium in hand—without overcomplicating the production. We worked through multiple refinements to the fit, colour, and layout, and provided a fully finished prototype for sign-off before going to print.
We ran the job on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, chosen for its high-res output and flawless colour accuracy. These were printed CMYK 2 sides on 300gsm Crescendo Double-Sided Board, giving a strong, smooth surface with beautiful colour clarity. We applied matt laminate on both sides for a soft-touch, scuff-resistant finish and added crease lines, a bevelled flap, and double-sided tape for flat-pack shipping and easy assembly.
Precision-cut and hang-tab ready, every sleeve was crafted to fit like a glove and deliver Follo’s premium brand promise — without delay, without compromise.
