Brewery-Ready Branding: Custom Growler Tags for Mean Doses Brewing

Mean Doses Brewing is a standout on Wellington’s craft beer map, equal parts basement-born passion and slick, urban taproom. With a rotating lineup of bold beers and a strong local following, the team needed a clean, practical way to label takeaway riggers and growlers. They came to us for exactly that: high-quality, brand-forward hang tags that could hold up in fridges, look good on the bar and keep things compliant and clear for customers.

We digitally printed 1,000 double-sided tags on 300gsm Top Flight carton board — a stock tough enough for chillers and handling. Full-colour brewery branding went on the front; the reverse, a sharp black-only layout with fill-in spaces for beer style, ABV and date, plus social handles to keep the brand conversation going post-purchase. Each tag was die-cut using our standing brewery hang tag tooling.

This job is a classic example of what we do best: fast, functional and high-quality print that does the job right. With standard dies and digital press setups ready to go, we help dozens of breweries like Mean Doses get packaging and POS materials out the door without overcomplicating it.

Printing High-Quality A4 Notebooks for Succeed Legal

At Colourcraft, we take pride in delivering exceptional printing services, and the A4 Workbook Notebooks we printed for Succeed Legal showcases our commitment to quality and attention to detail.

Succeed Legal, a fresh and modern Wellington-based law firm, entrusted us with the task of printing their notebooks which were designed to support note-taking during client meetings.

We used a 350gsm Silk Matt stock for the covers, then to enhance their durability and provide a pleasing soft-touch finish, we applied a matt lamination to both sides of the covers.

The pages of the notebooks were printed on high-quality 100gsm Advance Laser paper. With its exceptional whiteness, brightness, and uniformity, this paper offers a smooth writing experience. The pages featured ruled lines and space at the top for the date and subject, printed in crisp black throughout.

To complete the professional look, we wiro bound the notebooks on the left edge with white wire. This binding method not only adds functionality but also lends a polished appearance, allowing the pages to lie flat or fold fully back when the notebook is opened.

Premium Impressions: Custom Key Cartons for Faisandier Group

Faisandier Group is a Lower Hutt-based property developer known for building high-quality townhouses across the Hutt Valley. They've been with us since day one—literally. When the company launched in 2016, they knew who to call for print. So when the team came to us with a packaging problem, we listened. They were handing over keys to new homeowners (often first-time buyers) in cheap, generic plastic boxes. It didn’t reflect the care and quality they put into their homes. They needed something better. Something worthy of the moment.

We designed and produced a bespoke two-piece key carton crafted specifically for Faisandier’s handover experience. Each box is built from thick, 320gsm Popset Black card, screenprinted with a subtle spot UV varnish that delivers a black-on-black branding effect, understated but premium. The cartons are diecut to final shape, supplied flat and unassembled, giving Faisandier flexibility for storage and use. It's a small format (85 x 65 x 30mm), but it hits hard on presentation.

Once we delivered, Simon left us a google review that says it better than we ever could:

“The finest printer in all the land! I've been working with Colourcraft for years and they've never let me down. Conversely, I have let them down many times with ridiculous requests due to my lack of planning and preparation and they have never complained or cut me loose, amazing really.

When all those other printers get wobbly legs and start dropping out of the race, crying out for water and complaining that their legs are sore... Colourcraft are gliding majestically out in front, effortlessly, unmercifully crushing their competition with the greatest service a customer could ever hope for.

Their expert advice and guidance has steered me in the right direction when my hair-brained ideas could have ended in absolute disaster. They know their stuff. I'm stirred to write a poem about how much I appreciate Colourcraft but I think this review will lose all credibility if I do, so I shall refrain. I'd give them 6 stars if Google would let me. Colourcraft is Wellington’s printer of choice.”

– Simon Faisandier, Director

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.

Premium Presentation: Tender Documents for Fulton Hogan

When Fulton Hogan needed to submit a high-stakes tender for Wellington Water, they didn’t just want to look good, they needed to stand out. As one of Australasia’s largest infrastructure firms, they understand that great work starts with a great first impression. So when it came time to present their proposal, they trusted us to make it count.

We produced ten high-quality tender documents, each meticulously crafted for clarity, impact and durability. The covers were bound using a wrapped board construction, like a hardcover book but engineered for ease of use with wiro binding. Inside, we used smooth 120gsm Advance Laser stock for the main content and 300gsm Silk Matt for the die-cut tab dividers, ensuring each section was easy to navigate. Everything was printed in vibrant CMYK on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, delivering sharp colour consistency across every page.

To finish, we applied a matt laminate to the outer covers for a clean, confident durable, no glare, no smudge, premium presentation that matched the professionalism of the content inside.

There was no room for compromise here, just smart print choices, sharp execution and a product worthy of the Fulton Hogan name.
