Emporio Coffee: Premium Labels for Coffee Bags
For Wellington roastery Emporio Coffee, packaging isn’t just about function, it’s part of the customer experience. To clearly identify their coffee grind options across espresso, plunger and whole beans, they needed labels that could stand up to daily handling while looking sharp on the shelf.
We produced labels in two sizes 15 x 120mm strips and 60mm circles, on Colourplan white textured stock with a solid black self-adhesive backing. Printed CMYK and finished with slitting, trimming and backing card pads, these labels balanced premium feel with practical usability. Applied directly to their coffee bags, the labels provided clarity for customers while keeping the overall design cohesive and professional.

Flexible, Cost-Saving Labels: For Emporio Coffee
Emporio Coffee has been part of Wellington’s café culture since 2000, roasting premium Arabica beans for cafés and businesses across New Zealand. As a long-standing neighbour and client, they turned to us for a practical labelling solution for their retail coffee pouches — something that looked sharp on-shelf, kept costs under control and could flex as new blends were released.
We created a two-part label system: a clean base label applied to both 250g and 500g pouches, and a smaller secondary label to identify the blend. This kept every pack consistent in appearance, no matter who was packing, and meant Emporio could order base labels in larger volumes—saving on cost while still allowing easy customisation for grind type and blends. The result: professional-looking packaging that balances brand consistency with day-to-day flexibility.
Here’s what the client had to say in their Google review: “Emporio Coffee has been working with Colourcraft since 2016 when they became our neighbours in Walter Street. We often require a broad range of labelling and promotional material varying from large to small quantities. Ben and the team have always been incredibly helpful, friendly and professional. Ben is very accommodating and always makes time to discuss our projects, create solutions and produce very high quality products. I would highly recommend Colourcraft.” – Simon Maguire, General Manager - Emporio Coffee

Fast Turnaround, Flawless Finish: Carton Wraps for Goodnature
Goodnature is a conservation technology company out of Wellington, known for their humane, CO₂-powered pest traps that are exported to over 25 countries. In early 2023, they had a problem—an urgent export order of A18 Grey Squirrel Trap Kits needed to ship, but they were short of the branded carton wraps that seal and label each box.
Their usual packaging supplier had a five-week lead time. Could we do better?
Absolutely.
Within 24 hours we had a prototype in their hands. Then we produced 550 high-quality wraps across the next few days—getting the job done in record time and saving their export schedule.
We printed the wraps on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, which delivers sharp detail and flawless colour consistency on every sheet. We paired this with Tiger FBB 240gsm stock—a stiff, double-coated board with a smooth print surface and excellent durability for consumer packaging.
To finish, we creased and bevel-cut the closing flaps using our JWEI 6040 digital cutter—clean, crisp, and fast, without the need for custom dies or tooling.
The result? A print solution that matched their brand’s quality, hit the deadline, and kept their supply chain moving. In fact, they came back with another order just a week later—and six more over the next 12 months.

Elegant Print, Tiny Format: A Mini Cookbook for The Aristologist
The Aristologist is one of New Zealand’s most distinctive publications—a journal and symposium series dedicated to preserving the food history of Aotearoa and its neighbours. When editor Duncan Galletly came to us with A New Zealand Cookbook by Pummereboo, a quirky 20-page volume of recipes from 1849, including gems like “Dog Tail Soup,” the brief was simple: make it small, sharp, and archival. At just 75 x 100mm, this project pushed the limits of what’s practical in booklet printing—and that’s exactly why he came to us. We’ve been printing The Aristologist journal for 15+ years, and when something unique is needed, we know how to deliver.
We digitally printed 70 copies using a mix of high-quality stocks for both look and feel. The sky-blue cover was printed CMYK on 240gsm Pop’Set—an uncoated, smooth paper that holds colour beautifully and feels great in-hand. The internal pages were printed in crisp black ink on 135gsm Eco-100, a 100% recycled stock that lends both texture and integrity. Finished with saddle-stitching and precision-trimmed to miniature size, the result is a compact print piece that feels deliberate, not gimmicky.
Not every print shop tackles projects this small, but after years working with The Aristologist, we’ve learned how to get the details right when it matters most.

Helping Aotearoa Order Coffee in Te Reo — One Pocket Guide at a Time
When Te Taura Whiri the Māori Language Commission needed thousands of compact, high-impact guides ready for the fast-approaching Te Matatini Festival, they turned to us. As the Crown entity leading the revitalisation of te reo Māori, they were preparing a suite of language tools to help New Zealanders confidently use everyday phrases, this one focused on ordering a kawhe. Designed to slip into a pocket or wallet, these compact guides were designed to be genuinely useful, something people could actually keep and use in daily life.
Small format, big impact
We printed over 2,000 of these pocket-sized guides on 150gsm Silk Matt, durable but light, with a smooth satin finish that made the vivid CMYK colours pop. Trimmed and concertina folded down to just 52.5 x 90mm (smaller than a business card), the final format nailed both portability and usability. The Konica Minolta AccurioPress delivered crisp detail and perfect fold alignment, key when you’re packing a full language cheat sheet into such a small footprint.
Fast turnaround, zero compromise
This wasn’t just a one-off. We’ve reprinted this guide multiple times since, and it keeps showing up around the city, proof of its staying power. Folding at this scale isn’t always straightforward, but we got it right, on time, and without cutting corners.
Another 5-star review we’re proud to share:
“Ka pai ngā mahi a Colourcraft. We appreciate how responsive and timely they are as often we have urgent work required. The attention to quality as well as they were happy to send us proofs until it was tweaked to perfection. We'll continue to use Colourcraft as they have provided printing solutions for a range of resources we produce without fuss." – Kiriana Eparaima-Hautapu, Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori
