Bold First Impressions: Gold Foil Business Cards for Emporio Coffee
Wellington coffee legends Emporio Coffee have been hand-roasting beans and setting the standard in coffee culture since 2000. With a reputation built on integrity, sustainability and serious flavour. They came to us wanting something clean, sharp and undeniably premium to reflect the quality they pour into every cup.
We printed their cards on a smooth, 350gsm Pure White Knight stock, firm in hand and built to last. CMYK print on both sides gave them full flexibility with layout and design, while the real hero of this job was the gold foil. We applied Emporio’s logo using traditional hot stamp foil, a process that uses heat and pressure to press metallic gold directly into the card surface. It gives the branding real shine, a bit of texture and a tactile finish.
This isn’t just a nice-looking card, it’s a reflection of the values behind the brand: attention to detail, commitment to quality and a lasting impression that goes well beyond first contact.
Here’s what the client had to say in their Google review: “Colourcraft are very accommodating and always makes time to discuss our projects, create solutions and produce very high quality products. I would highly them.” – Simon Maguire, Emporio Coffee

Trusted, Repeatable, Taproom-Ready: Custom Vinyl Tap Badges for Brave Brewing Co.
Since 2018, we’ve partnered with Brave Brewing Co. a standout Hawke’s Bay craft brewery known for flavour-forward beers and a strong local following. They needed a print partner who could consistently produce high-quality vinyl tap badges, with precision, speed and colour accuracy — every time.
So far, we’ve delivered on 27 separate orders, producing thousands of custom tap badges for over 50 different beers. From seasonal one-offs to award-winning flagships, these badges are a core part of Brave’s bar presentation. We’re proud to have become a trusted extension of their production process.
Each badge is printed on translucent vinyl, purpose-built for backlit bar hardware. This matters, many breweries use opaque vinyl that kills the glow. Our process allows the tap badge to light up on the tap, without washing out the artwork. We dial in the colour balance to ensure it looks just as good backlit as it does in ambient light.
We print using our Roland XR-640, a high-resolution, eco-solvent machine perfect for vibrant, consistent output. Once printed, each badge is kiss-cut to 73mm, weeded and supplied in sheets of 12 ready to go.
The process is tight. Print-ready files, fast proofing, consistent finishing and seamless delivery. Every time.

Bold Branding Meets Shelf Appeal: Folding Hang Tags for Hallertau Brewery
Hallertau Brewery is no ordinary brewpub. Based in Riverhead, they’re known for bold craft beer, wood-fired food, and a venue that feels part biergarten, part backyard. So when they launched a limited-run Bolognese sauce—yes, a handcrafted sauce from a craft brewery they needed packaging that told the story just as well as the product itself. The ask? A folding hang tag that could carry a full recipe, reflect their premium brand, and still hang neatly from a bottle on shelf.
We digitally printed 250 concertina-fold tags on 250gsm Top Flight board—thick enough to hold its shape but still fold beautifully. Full-colour on both sides gave Hallertau’s white-on-red branding the punch it needed, while the inner panels detailed ingredients and prep instructions. Everything was die-cut to a custom shape using a new cutting form, then weeded and supplied flat for final folding onsite.
This piece did double duty: it told a story and sold the product. The compact 45x94mm folded size made it perfect for retail, while the unfolding action encouraged customers to interact with the brand. That’s not just packaging—that’s engagement.

Bold Branding, Built to Last: ‘Stay Wild’ Promo Print for QT Wellington
For a brand like QT Hotel, every guest touchpoint is a chance to surprise and delight, and their Stay Wild campaign was no exception. In late 2019, the QT team launched a limited-time Stay Wild promotion that needed printed collateral to match the hotel’s playful, design-led style. They came to us for fast-turnaround A5 menus and drinks vouchers that looked great on the bar and held up under regular use.
We produced two key print pieces:
- An A5 promo card, printed double-sided on 350gsm Silk Matt, trimmed and matt laminated for durability and style
- A set of 90x55mm drinks vouchers — same premium stock, same sharp finish
Both items were printed CMYK both sides using our digital press, ensuring bold colour and crisp detail on every piece. The matt lamination wasn’t just for looks — it added a smooth, scuff-resistant finish that stood up to regular handling while keeping everything looking premium.
This was just one of the hundreds of print jobs we’ve delivered for QT Wellington over the years. From seasonal campaigns to daily operational print, they trust us to hit the mark—every time.
Another 5-star review we’re proud to share:

Buy NZ Made: Official Membership Certificates for Businesses Nationwide
Every year, the Buy New Zealand Made Campaign sends thousands of membership certificates to Kiwi businesses — and we’re proud to design and print every single one of them. As both a member and a trusted supplier since 2020, we handle the certificates that businesses display with pride to show they’re part of one of New Zealand’s most recognisable trust marks.
For the 2020 edition shown here, we designed and printed on premium 350gsm Knight Smooth — a thick, matte stock that feels as good as it looks. Each A4 certificate is printed in full colour for sharp, consistent branding. In later years, we introduced metallic foiling to make the design even more premium, ensuring the brand stands out in any office or storefront.
On average, we produce around 1500 certificates annually for renewals, plus fresh certificates for about 10 new members every fortnight. Once printed, we alphabetise the batches for easy handover to the campaign’s logistics partner, helping keep the process fast and error-free.
