Durable and Vibrant: Gen Reo Campaign Posters by Colourcraft
At Colourcraft, we pride ourselves on delivering premium printing solutions that leave a lasting impression. When Ata, a local social media agency, approached us to support the launch of their Gen Reo campaign, we were proud to contribute to this important kaupapa.
The Gen Reo campaign seeks to revitalise te reo Māori and inspire a new generation of speakers. For this campaign, Ata required 20 large-format, durable A0 posters (841 x 1189mm) that could withstand frequent handling while showcasing vibrant, eye-catching message.
Using our Roland XR-640 printer, we produced the posters on 200gsm satin matte paper, chosen for its affordability and premium finish. To ensure longevity and vivid colour reproduction, we used eco-solvent inks that are scratch-resistant and highly durable. The result was a series of striking, full-colour posters that conveyed a wide range of messages reflecting the campaign's core themes.
Across the set of 20 posters, the designs addressed significant topics central to the kaupapa of revitalising te reo Māori.
At Colourcraft, we are honoured to have played a small part in the Gen Reo campaign and to support Ata in their mission to ensure te reo Māori thrives for future generations. By combining technology with our dedication to quality, we created materials that make a lasting impact while ensuring every message stands out with durability and vibrancy.

Premium Client Comms: Custom Wiro-Bound Notebooks for Grochem via Phillips & Partners
When Wellington-based comms agency Phillips & Partners needed a high-quality printed piece for their client Grochem, they came straight to us. Known for managing social and strategic messaging for NZ businesses, the team at Phillips & Partners were after something tangible, an A4, custom-designed notebook that would celebrate Grochem’s work and leave a lasting impression with clients and stakeholders. With over 250 pages, this wasn’t just a throwaway promo item, it was designed to leave a mark.
We worked closely with Phillips & Partners to bring the concept to life, producing 200 copies of the 258-page notebook. Each was bound with heavy-duty white wiro for durability, and featured full-colour marketing inserts printed on 240gsm Advance Laser stock. The internal pages, printed crisp and clean in black on 120gsm Advance Laser, perfect for writing and longevity. Covers were printed double-sided on 400gsm Silk Matt, finished with a premium matt laminate to protect the books through heavy use.
Wiro-binding something this thick isn’t easy, but with heavy 2:1 gauge wire, we made it work without compromising quality. These notebooks weren’t just printed, they were engineered for daily use in the real world.
Another 5-star review we’re proud to share:
“Colourcraft are incredibly responsive, have fast turn around times, are competitively priced and always offer fantastic solutions and advice. Can highly recommend you try these guys out to see the difference.” – Heather Phillips, Director, Phillips & Partners

Document Folders with Premium Finishes: Faisandier Group
The Faisandier Group is a family-run property developer based in Lower Hutt, delivering premium townhouses that set a new benchmark for quality living across the Wellington region. With a reputation for craftsmanship and detail, they came to us for presentation folders that carried the same premium feel as their developments, polished, modern and built to last.
We produced custom printed document folders on heavyweight 320gsm Popset Black stock. To elevate the finish, we applied a blind spot UV gloss varnish over the Faisandier logo and brand icon, creating a striking contrast against the matte background. Each folder was precision diecut to size and supplied flat, complete with business card slits for easy use. The result: a piece of print that feels as considered and enduring as their homes.
Here’s what the client had to say in their Google review—part of the most entertaining one we’ve ever earned:
“The finest printer in all the land!… When other printers get wobbly legs and start dropping out of the race, Colourcraft are gliding majestically out in front, unmercifully crushing their competition with the greatest service a customer could ever hope for.” – Simon, Marketing & Communications Director

Custom Swing Tags & Hang Tags: Printed Locally in New Zealand
Custom Swing Tags & Hang Tags for Apparel, Gifts, Breweries and More
If your product sits on a shelf, hangs on a rack, or needs that final branded touch, custom swing tags are a smart, high-impact way to elevate your presentation. Ideal for apparel, gifts, cosmetics, breweries and other consumer products, our locally produced tags help communicate your brand’s personality and quality at a glance. We’re based in Wellington and deliver New Zealand–wide, with fast turnaround and flexible order sizes to suit both short runs and large-scale production.
Premium Printing, Precise Cutting, Endless Possibilities
Our swing tags combine premium print quality with versatile finishing options. We print on a wide range of materials including satin, matte, packaging boards and craft stocks, with options like pearlescent papers for a subtle metallic sheen. One of our biggest advantages is our computer-controlled die cutting, which lets us cut to almost any shape without the cost of traditional cutting dies. It’s perfect for short runs, unique shapes, or brands wanting to stand out without a big upfront investment.
We’ve produced custom hang tags for a wide range of New Zealand businesses, each with their own unique branding goals. For example, Seventhwave Wetsuits needed premium swing tags to reflect the craftsmanship of their locally made wetsuits, so we created elegant, durable tags that elevated their in-store presentation. Salt District Brewing came to us for growler tags that would look great behind the bar and hold up in busy hospitality settings—we delivered precisely cut kraft tags with a tactile, handcrafted feel. And when Ground Up Brewing launched a new series, we produced custom-shaped tags that reinforced their brand identity and gave their bottles a polished, professional finish.

Big-Day Ready: Custom Signs That Set the Scene
When Marilyn came to us, she was deep in the logistics of helping organise her son’s wedding, lending a hand with the kind of thoughtful details that make a big day feel truly special. Her role? Sort out two A1 signage panels: one to welcome guests, the other to lay out the seating plan in style.
Simple in theory—but as anyone who’s ever planned a wedding knows, the devil is in the details.
We worked closely with Marilyn to lock in the specs. We proofed the artwork, made sure everything was dialled in, then moved fast to deliver exactly what she needed—on time and stress-free.
Printed using our Roland XR-640, the panels came to life with rich colour and sharp clarity. We used Avery Dennison’s MPI 2904 vinyl—an ideal choice for vibrant, smooth application—mounted onto 4mm paylite for structure and a premium finish.
Marilyn said it best: “The signs did come out well and really fit in with the rest of the theme. Thank you for all your work to help get them printed.”
Need beautiful, reliable print for a big day? You bring the idea—we’ll handle the rest.
