Garage Project is no stranger to pushing creative boundaries in craft beer — and when they needed a standout bottle wrap for their South Pacific–inspired stout, Garage Project came to us. Designed by Wellington illustrator Tim Gibson of Flying Whities, the artwork deserved a print finish that would capture the same boldness and flair as the beer inside. This was never going to be a plain label — it needed to be premium, distinctive, and ready to hold its own on a crowded shelf.

We produced custom wraps on Eco-100 stock, printed full colour both sides, and finished with hot stamp gold foil for a striking metallic detail. That foiled accent gave the design depth and light-catching impact — the kind of premium finish that not only elevates the artwork, but also communicates the quality of the beer before the first sip. To ensure Garage Project could launch on time and keep up with demand, we ran fast-turnaround digital prints for the first batch, followed by larger offset print runs with die-cut finishing. The result: consistent, high-quality wraps delivered to spec — every time.

This has become an ongoing project with Garage Project. When they need premium packaging done right, they know we can deliver quickly without compromise.

Here’s what the client had to say in their Google review:

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.
