Kainui Brew Co is a standout Northland brewery with a loyal following and a bold, creative range of small-batch beers. Known for crafting fresh, taproom-filled flavours in Kerikeri’s lush vineyard country, their team needed a smart, premium way to label their takeaway riggers, without sacrificing flexibility or style. Already trusting us for keg collars and tap badges, they came back for hang tags that could handle the chill and still look sharp in hand.

We designed and printed 2,000 custom rigger tags, tailored to their brand. Each tag was printed on 300gsm Top Flight carton board, sturdy enough to handle fridges and cold storage without curling or soaking through. We ran the job on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress for sharp CMYK print on the front and a clean black-only reverse, perfect for staff to jot down batch details. Once printed, tags were die-cut using our standing brewery die, an efficient choice that keeps the job fast and cost-effective while still delivering a quality result.

Whether you're launching a branded game for an event, creating a training tool, or developing your own playable card deck, we help bring your idea to life — one card at a time. Our clients range from government departments and game designers to agencies building experiential campaigns for their clients.

All cards are printed and finished in-house at our Wellington facility and delivered NZ-wide. No minimum order — so whether you need one prototype or a full production run, we’ve got you covered.

Why choose Custom Playing Cards?

Cards are a uniquely interactive medium — tactile, visual, and built for engagement. Ours are printed on 0.36 mm stock (thicker than most commercial decks), laminated with a durable matt finish and precision cut with rounded corners.

Need custom shapes, sizes, or boxes? No problem. We use digital die-cutting — no tooling required — so your game can look exactly how you imagined it. We also produce tuck-in cartons, two-piece boxes and fully custom packaging.

From environmental education to kapa haka celebration to bespoke art — we’ve helped bring all kinds of custom card decks to life. For Wilderlab’s eRangers game, we printed a durable, high-quality deck used in schools to teach students about waterways and environmental monitoring. For the Ministry for Culture and Heritage, we produced 500 sets of custom 36-card decks for Te Matatini — a kapa haka celebration delivered as a tactile, take-home experience. And when Kingsley Attwood, a designer and photographer, created a full 52-card deck with unique illustrations on every face, we helped bring his vision to print with accuracy and premium finishing.

Each project had a different story — but they all needed the same thing: a print partner who could get the details right.

Here’s what one of our clients said:

"Used Colourcraft to print off the cards for a board game I created. They were brilliant — very patient with my lack of printing knowledge and explained all the options clearly. The final product was perfect, really professional and great quality. Very happy with the service. Highly recommend using them." – Josh Scoulding

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.
