WHAT WE DO.
We’re proud to partner with New Zealand’s biggest apparel importers and promotional product companies.
We have access to a huge range of apparel from streetwear, sportswear, uniforms and corporate attire to promotional products like pens, drink bottles, coffee mugs and more.
We help you find the right gear for your business or event and then customise it to match your brand, budget and vision.
Heat Transfers
Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing is a versatile, modern method ideal for short runs, full-colour designs, and quick turnaround.
With no screens or setup required, it’s cost-effective for small orders and works on most fabrics, light or dark.
Heat Transfers are perfect for detailed, on-demand custom printing to ensure every print looks vibrant, and stands the test of time.
All transfers have been lab-tested for durability and are certified to last 80+ washes without cracking or fading.
They even carry the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification, so you know there's no harsh or toxic chemicals in them!
Embroidery
We partner with another whānau owned business in Ōtautahi to deliver embroidery of true retail quality.
From small runs to large orders, your brand is in good hands.
For new customers there is a 1-off digitisation fee of $40. This cost covers the digitisation of your logo or design so the embroidery is clear and easy to read. No one likes a blurry logo.
Sublimation
Sublimation is a process where designs are heat-infused into the fabric itself, creating long-lasting, vibrant colour that won’t crack or fade (think bowling shirts).
We have access to a huge catalogue of sublimation products like kapa haka uniforms, custom fabrics, polos and more.
