Gold Standard Finish: Graduation Certificates for Workhub Services
Workhub Services delivers real-world transformation through their Whakamana Programme—a no-cost, eight-week course helping New Zealanders gain purpose, confidence and a pathway to employment. To celebrate each graduate’s journey, they came to us for something that felt meaningful: a Certificate of Graduation with a premium finish. Their designer had worked with us before, so even from outside Wellington, they trusted us to get the details right.
These A4 certificates were printed full colour on 300gsm Munken Pure Cream, an uncoated, tactile stock that feels every bit as refined as it looks. The highlight? A hot stamped gold foil seal applied with precision at the base of each certificate. It’s a subtle feature, but one that lifts the design and gives it a sense of formality and care.
Printed on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, we ensured crisp alignment and sharp colour throughout. The end result was clean, considered and built to reflect the professionalism of the programme and its graduates.

Premium Presence, Built to Travel: Pull-Up Banners for ACE New Zealand
ACE New Zealand needed a set of six pull-up banners that looked as credible as the organisation itself. As the peak body representing consulting firms in New Zealand’s built and natural environment sectors, their print needed to reflect the same level of professionalism and clarity they bring to policy, procurement and practice. These banners would be used across a range of industry events and leadership forums so durability, visual impact and ease of use were non-negotiable. They came to us for premium execution, not shortcuts.
We used a scrimless grey-backed PVC banner material, which delivers a clean, smooth surface with zero texture showing through, ideal for professional environments. Paired with our Roland XR-640 eco-solvent printer, we locked in deep colour, crisp edges, and graphics that pop from across the room. The banners were trimmed and installed into silver Prestige hardware a sturdy, sleek banner hardware that comes with and a padded carry bag for easy transport. This combo doesn’t just look good—it lasts.

Bold Branding, Built to Last: Sandwich Board Panels for Aurora Argentinian Bakery
When Aurora Argentinian Bakery needed fresh signage for their bustling Te Aro storefront, they came straight to us because we’ve been their go-to print partner for years. We’ve helped Aurora with everything from business cards to menus and loyalty cards, so when they needed new sandwich board panels to fit their existing A-frame hardware, they knew we’d get it right. This wasn’t just about looking good; it was about attracting foot traffic and reinforcing offerings on the street.
We printed the panels using Avery Dennison MPI 2904 vinyl—known for its outdoor toughness and clean finish, then laminated them with DOL 2100 matt for added UV and scratch resistance. The panels were mounted to 4mm ACM (aluminium composite) for strength and weatherproofing, giving Aurora a robust, high-quality sign that stands up to Wellington’s wind and rain. Inside the frame, we applied matching black vinyl for a cohesive, polished look when the board is open, because every detail matters.
Why it worked:
- Custom-cut to fit their existing hardware
- Matt finish reduces glare and boosts readability
- Durable materials built for daily outdoor use
If you’ve got signage that needs to work hard and look great doing it, we’re ready when you are. Get a tailored quote built to your needs.

Premium Design, Premium Finish: Promotional Booklet Printing for JCDC
When Palmerston North design studio JCDC needed a print partner for a truly standout project, they came to us—not because we were local, but because quality was non-negotiable. Founder Jemma Cheer was producing a luxe promotional booklet for her client, Emma Brown Design, and every detail had to land. From materials to finish, this job was about making the right impression.
We printed the internal pages using our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 for sharp colour and precise alignment, ideal for brand-led work like this. The pages were printed on 150gsm Silk Matt stock for a smooth, professional feel. For the cover, we used a 300gsm Black Notturno, chosen for its rich, tactile finish and applied gold foil detailing (handled beautifully by Windmill Press) to elevate the entire piece. The final booklets were creased, folded, and sail stitched with pink thread by Andrew from Bookbinding Etc, giving a distinctive hand-crafted edge.
This was a true collaboration between top-tier creatives. From concept to delivery, every partner brought their A-Game Jemma on design, Windmill on foil, Andrew on bind and we made sure the print held it all together.
Here’s what the client had to say in their Google review: "Wonderful service and premium quality. No task is too big, small or tricky for these guys... super smart service... always my first suggestion if anyone asks." – Jemma Cheer

Creating a colour reference guide for Awanui
At Colourcraft, we take great pride in delivering premium printing services. In collaboration with the renowned graphic design studio Ocean Design, we have printed a comprehensive colour reference guide for Awanui. This A3-sized document serves as a benchmark for Awanui's brand, stakeholders and suppliers throughout the country.
The guide provides essential information and resources related to Awanui colour usage and establishes target, acceptable, and unacceptable colour standards. Additionally, the guide includes perforated tear-out colour swatches for convenient reference.
The front and back covers were printed in colour on 350gsm Silk Matt paper. A protective matt lamination was applied to the covers, ensuring durability and longevity. The pages were printed on 256gsm Silk Matt paper, incorporated die-cut elements to create a colour-isolating window for precise colour comparison and featured transparent pages printed on synthetic transparent stock to demonstrate target, acceptable, and unacceptable colour standards. The entire guide was wiro-bound, providing a sturdy and professional finish that allows easy navigation and usage.
The result is a meticulously crafted reference guide that reflects the professionalism and dedication of Awanui.
Awanui, with its extensive network and commitment to providing laboratory testing and pathology services to thousands of New Zealanders daily, entrusted us with this project. We are proud to have contributed to their branding transition and to have produced a high-quality reference guide that will serve as a valuable resource within their organisation and beyond.
