Premium Manuscript Print: ‘The Dreamers’ by Nadia Marychurch

When writer Nadia Marychurch came to us, she’d poured years into crafting 'The Dreamers' a supernatural novel exploring faith, purpose, and the blurry line between dreams and reality. Before sending her manuscript to editors, she wanted a professionally printed, perfect-bound version she could hold, share and review.

We printed seven advance copies of the 324-page manuscript using our Ricoh Pro C9100, chosen for its ability to deliver ultra-sharp black-only prints with speed and consistency. The interior pages were printed on 80gsm Munken Print White, a premium uncoated stock. Then we perfect bound each copy to A5 size with a full wrap cover before triming to final size, giving Nadia a clean, bookstore-quality finish.

The result? A tactile, durable first-run manuscript that looked like the real deal and helped bring Nadia’s vision to life.

Clear, Trusted Comms: A5 Guidebook Printing for Metlink

When Metlink needed to communicate major updates to Wellington’s public transport network, they came to us with one clear goal: make it simple, clear and fast. This wasn’t just a design job, it was a public-facing document designed to help thousands of commuters navigate timetable and connection changes across buses, trains and ferries. The result? A sleek, accessible A5 guidebook that matched Metlink’s brand and met a tight rollout deadline.

We took care of the full production, starting with layout and design based on supplied content, then printing 1,000 copies using our Ricoh C9100 digital press. That machine’s no-nonsense colour accuracy and consistency was exactly what the job needed. Printed CMYK throughout, the booklet featured a durable 240gsm offset cover and 120gsm offset pages giving it enough weight to feel substantial, but still easy to flick through. Finished with saddle-stitching and trimmed to A5 size, every copy looked crisp, professional and purpose-built.

Fast turnaround, no compromise on quality

We ran electronic proofs and even mocked up a physical proof to make sure everything hit the mark. Turnaround from layout to delivery was just a few days, because when public comms are on the line, deadlines matter.

Built to Stick: Custom Logo Decals for Fitzpatrick's Brewing Co

When Tauranga’s Fitzpatrick's Brewing Co needed a fresh batch of logo decals, they came to us with one goal: crisp, durable branding that could keep up with their growing presence in the Bay. A small-batch brewery with big ambition (and a passion for classic cars), Fitzpatrick’s was scaling fast—serving more venues, filling more flagons, and needing reliable print to match their momentum.

To get it right, we used Avery Dennison MPI 2903 gloss vinyl a durable, high-opacity stock that handles indoor and outdoor use like a champ. We printed 500 decals, full CMYK, using our Roland XR-640 for bold colour accuracy. Then we kiss-cut each one to shape, weeded and sheeted them 15 to a page, ready to peel and apply. The result? Easy-to-handle, bubble-free application with a five-year outdoor lifespan ideal for a brewery that isn’t slowing down.

Nothing fancy just sharp execution, built to last, and fast turnaround from proof to delivery. We’ve got Fitzpatrick’s art on file now, so future top-ups will be even quicker.

Reusable and Ready to Go: Free-Standing Display Panels for Fix & Fogg

Fix & Fogg, Fix & Fogg, the Wellington-based legends behind some of the world’s best nut butters, approached us with a clear brief: they needed eye-catching, portable display panels that could hold their own at food shows—and be reused across multiple events. These displays had to be easy to store, tough enough to handle transport, and most importantly, stand up.

We delivered exactly that. Using our Roland XR-640 printer, we produced vibrant, full-colour prints on Avery Dennison MPI 2904 gloss permanent vinyl. That vinyl was then mounted to 3mm Paylite panels—lightweight, durable, and clean-edged—before being precision trimmed and fitted with a fold-out strut on the reverse. The result? A crisp, freestanding panel that flat-packs for storage, stands solid on-site, and turns heads wherever it’s placed.

Over the past six months, we’ve worked closely with the Fix & Fogg team to create more than 10 different variations of these panels—ranging from menus and price lists to promotional messaging and event signage. It’s a simple, low-cost format that punches well above its weight.

Here’s what Shenae from Fix & Fogg had to say:

“The Colourcraft team are amazing. Their work is second to none and we always have a quick turnaround. Thanks Team!”

Printing Spot UV Varnished Business Cards for SecureAZ

Colourcraft has a long-standing relationship with the guys behind SecureAZ, so when they approached us to print their business cards, we knew we had to create something remarkable.

To achieve this, we printed 500 business cards on a premium 350gsm satin matt board and to further enhance their durability, we laminated both sides of the cards with a scuff-resistant, durable matt lamination, ensuring that they would stand up well over time. Then to make these business cards truly stand out and catch the eye, we applied a screen printed spot UV varnish on the type 'Cyber Security Awareness'.
