Experience Precision and Beauty with Colourcraft’s Art Printing Services
At Colourcraft, we are dedicated to turning your creative visions into art prints of exceptional quality. A recent project, ‘Nightscape of Wellington’, shows the stunning results that our photo or art printing services can achieve.
Using our Epson SCP9560, this night scene captures the serene beauty of Wellington’s harbour. With UltraChrome Pro12 inks, the print showcases an impressive range of colours and delicate details, from the shimmering lights of the city to the tranquil hues of the evening sky. Printed on 190gsm satin stock, the result is a vibrant, durable print with a smooth, professional finish.
For artists, photographers, or businesses seeking to showcase their work, our state-of-the-art printing technology ensures each piece is reproduced with accuracy and depth, making your work stand out.
Choose Colourcraft for your art or photo printing needs and experience the perfect blend of precision, quality, and service. Let us help you bring your vision to life with prints that leave a lasting impression.

Trusted, Repeatable, Taproom-Ready: Custom Vinyl Tap Badges for Brave Brewing Co.
Since 2018, we’ve partnered with Brave Brewing Co. a standout Hawke’s Bay craft brewery known for flavour-forward beers and a strong local following. They needed a print partner who could consistently produce high-quality vinyl tap badges, with precision, speed and colour accuracy — every time.
So far, we’ve delivered on 27 separate orders, producing thousands of custom tap badges for over 50 different beers. From seasonal one-offs to award-winning flagships, these badges are a core part of Brave’s bar presentation. We’re proud to have become a trusted extension of their production process.
Each badge is printed on translucent vinyl, purpose-built for backlit bar hardware. This matters, many breweries use opaque vinyl that kills the glow. Our process allows the tap badge to light up on the tap, without washing out the artwork. We dial in the colour balance to ensure it looks just as good backlit as it does in ambient light.
We print using our Roland XR-640, a high-resolution, eco-solvent machine perfect for vibrant, consistent output. Once printed, each badge is kiss-cut to 73mm, weeded and supplied in sheets of 12 ready to go.
The process is tight. Print-ready files, fast proofing, consistent finishing and seamless delivery. Every time.

Consistent Quality, Every Time: Prepress Production for Resene Paints
For over two decades, we’ve handled the prepress work behind Resene Paints product labels and printed cans — and when you’re dealing with one of New Zealand’s most iconic brands, there’s no room for error. With hundreds of products and constant updates across volumes and variants, Resene needs every label to be production-ready, print-perfect and colour-accurate, every single time. That’s where we come in.
190+ Labels and Cans Prepped in the Last Year Alone
Our role is right in the middle — between design and final print — where the quality control happens. We don’t create the artwork, and we don’t run the press. What we do is make sure every file is print-ready: from colour separation and trapping to imposition, bleed setup and press-specific specs. It’s the unglamorous but critical prep that ensures cans come off the line looking sharp, consistent and true to brand, every time.
Why It Works
Prepress is precision work that demands attention to detail and deep technical experience. Over the years, we’ve refined a system that delivers speed and reliability without compromising the high standards Resene is known for. They trust us to get it right, and we don’t take that lightly.

Premium Impact: Blind-debossed Swing Tags for The Buy New Zealand Made Campaign
When the team at The Buy New Zealand Made Campaign needed premium swing tags for their high-end retail partners, they came straight to us. As long-time advocates for NZ manufacturing, they wanted to help boutique fashion brands elevate their product presentation, especially where a printed tag just wouldn’t cut it. The goal? Deliver a physical mark of authenticity that quietly reinforces “Made in Aotearoa” with unmistakable quality.
We proposed a clean, ultra-premium solution: blind debossed swing tags on 600gsm Crane’s Lettra Fluorescent White, an American-made, 100% cotton stock designed for serious impression work. With no ink and no colour, the focus was entirely on texture and craftsmanship. We die-cut each tag to a 35mm custom shape, added a precision drilled 2.5mm hole and blind-de bossed the iconic kiwi logo deep into the surface. The result? Minimal. Intentional. Made to impress.
To finish, we weeded each sheet by hand, packed the 10,000 tags into lots of 100 and delivered ready for distribution across their retail network.
Don’t just take our word for it—here’s what the client shared in a google review:
