Fast, Flavour-Packed Print: Recipe Cards for Fix & Fogg
Fix & Fogg is one of those brands that does everything with intention, from their bold flavours to their standout packaging. As long-time neighbours of ours (we literally shared a wall for years), they came to us needing high-quality, small-format recipe cards that could move as fast as their product did. These A6 cards are packed into retail orders and distributed with product, so the print quality had to reflect the care they put into every jar. And speed? Non-negotiable. They often needed a turnaround in a few short hours, and we delivered.
Over three years, we printed their recipe cards 48 separate orders, totalling tens of thousands of units across multiple runs. Each batch was produced on our digital press using sturdy 300gsm Advance Laser stock—giving the cards a smooth, premium feel without overcomplicating the process. Full-colour CMYK on both sides brought their brand to life, showcasing vibrant imagery and a thoughtful that matched their tone perfectly. Everything was trimmed to true A6, so it slotted neatly into their fulfilment workflow.
This wasn’t a one-off print job—it was an ongoing partnership built on speed, quality, and trust. Whether they needed 300 or 5000, we made sure their recipe cards were press-ready, printed, trimmed, and out the door in a matter of hours.
"The Colourcraft team are amazing. Their work is second to none and we always have a quick turnaround. Thanks Team!" – Shenae Ruffell, Fix & Fogg

Boldly Branded: Havana Coffee Works’ Premium Business Cards
When Havana Coffee Works came to us, they weren’t looking for just another business card—they wanted something that matched their bold, unapologetic brand. As one of Wellington’s most iconic coffee roasters, Havana is known for their attitude, their flavour, and their standout style. They needed cards that embodied that same energy. That’s where we came in.
We printed several thousand custom business cards for Havana using our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, known for pinpoint accuracy and flawless colour consistency. To ensure a tactile, high-end finish, we used a sturdy 350gsm stock and applied a scuff-resistant soft-touch matt laminate to both sides—giving the cards a silky feel and long-lasting durability.
The final punch? Spot UV gloss varnish on the Havana logo, front and back. This selective gloss technique creates bold contrast against the matt background, drawing the eye and elevating the brand. The result is a premium card with texture, shine, and staying power—just like Havana’s coffee.

Crafted with Precision: Floating Rock's Premium Business Cards
At Colourcraft, we take pride in delivering premium service and exceptional quality in every project we undertake. One of our recent endeavours was working with Floating Rock, a boutique animation studio based in Wellington, Aotearoa, known for its high-quality animated cinematic experiences and slick visual effects.
For their business cards, we were supplied with a design that reflects the studio's creativity and professionalism and were asked to print a set of business cards that would leave a lasting impression.
Once the cards were printed to enhance durability, we applied a scuff-resistant matt lamination on both sides of the cards, providing a soft touch finish and ensuring they would stand up well over time. On one side, we incorporated the Floating Rock logo using a blind spot UV gloss varnish. This technique created a glossy effect that contracts with the matt laminated background.
On the reverse side of the business cards, we applied a hot stamp foiling with blue metallic foil to embellish the founder's name and the floating rock icon. The reflective metallic blue brought a touch of class, adding depth to the design and which contracted against the smooth matt laminated surface of the card.
By combining these premium finishes and attention to detail, we crafted business cards that truly represented the professionalism and quality of Floating Rock Studio.

Thoughtful, Sustainable Packaging That Helped GrowProbe Go from Prototype to Market
When GrowProbe was ready to bring their innovative indoor plant moisture probe to market, they needed packaging that did more than just look good — it had to hold the product securely, be cost-effective and align with their eco-conscious values. The product wasn’t yet in stores, so the packaging had to make a strong first impression for online sales and future retail opportunities.
The client came to us with a draft backing card structure and the need for an interlocking feature to keep the probe in place. We refined the design to improve fit and function, suggested printing on both sides of a single-sided Kraftpak Kraft 283gsm board and produced multiple prototypes to perfect the form before committing to cutting tooling. This process allowed us to get the locking system right and create packaging that feels as considered as the product itself.
The final packaging was printed black on both sides, die-cut to shape and delivered with a natural kraft aesthetic that complements GrowProbe’s sustainable brand. The product launched smoothly, gaining traction online and through social media, with a reprint order following a few years later — proof that the design continues to perform.
If you’ve got a product ready for shelves (or the spotlight), we can help you make it launch-ready without overspending. Get a fast, tailored quote, with no pressure.

Fueling Growth: Premium Booklets for Sportsfuel’s Quarterly Digest
Sportsfuel Supplements one of New Zealand’s leading online supplement stores—came to us with a clear mission: to create a high-quality, professionally printed booklet that would inform and inspire their customer base. They wanted a quarterly digest that reflected their values—trusted advice, premium products, and next-level service.
We kicked things off with a full mockup proof. It gave the Sportsfuel team a tangible feel for the final product and ensured every detail was locked before going to full production. Once approved, we printed 1,000 copies on Advance Laser 120gsm offset stock—a smart, quality paper that’s perfect for saddle-stitched booklets and delivers sharp text with crisp, clean colour.
Using our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 (with inline IQ-501 colour control), we guaranteed flawless colour consistency from cover to cover. Each booklet was saddle-stapled, trimmed to size, and delivered on time—ready to ship out with Sportsfuel’s online orders.
A year later, Sportsfuel has printed three more editions, adjusted the magazine’s size to better fit their packaging, and is now exploring a 5x increase in volume. That’s real traction.
“Working with the team at Colourcraft has been an absolute pleasure! They were incredibly patient and helpful while assisting us to come up with our first print series. I would definitely recommend them and am looking forward to working with them again!” — Abbie Younger, Sportsfuel
