Businesses across New Zealand require reliable partners who can deliver quality printed materials and signage without delays or compromises. Finding a provider that combines technical capability with responsive service remains a priority for companies managing their visual communications. Kapiti Signs & Printing has built its reputation on this foundation, offering a comprehensive range of solutions from its Otaki headquarters on the Kapiti Coast. Since founder Tim Beere established the operation in 2010, Web2Print Signs & Printing has grown from a local provider into a trusted partner serving more than 1,700 clients from Auckland to Bluff.
Their production facility houses specialized equipment designed to handle varied requirements. Four wide-format printers produce large banners, billboards, and real estate signs with vibrant colour output. A Canon Image Press delivers crisp business cards, brochures, and marketing materials, while an Epson SureColor P7560 with 12-colour UltraChrome PRO12 ink handles professional photography and graphic design work up to A1 size. The Roland wide-format printer creates waterproof, UV-stable vinyl labels suitable for outdoor applications. This equipment diversity allows them to tackle projects ranging from small-run labels to architectural plans.
Operating from Otaki provides distinct advantages. The location sits approximately 40 minutes north of Wellington, offering reasonable rents and lower overhead costs compared to major urban centres. These savings translate directly into competitive pricing for clients while maintaining production quality. Their online ordering system, active since 2006, streamlines the process further. Template-driven ordering ensures brand consistency, while self-proofing tools let clients preview and approve work before production begins. Secure Amazon servers store order history, making reordering straightforward.
Service extends well beyond the Kapiti Coast and Greater Wellington regions. Orders placed through their website typically process and dispatch within 24 hours, reaching clients nationwide via overnight courier. This combination of local presence and national reach has positioned them as a practical choice for businesses requiring both speed and reliability. Their opening hours of 8.30am to 4pm weekdays accommodate most business schedules, with arrangements available outside these times when needed.
Real estate professionals represent a significant client segment for Web2Print Signs & Printing. High-visibility coreflute signboards come in multiple sizes, with services extending to property photographs and customized photo signs. These weather-resistant materials withstand New Zealand conditions while maintaining visual impact throughout listing periods. The same durability applies to their business and commercial signage, manufactured from UV-stable vinyl on weather-resistant substrates suitable for shopfronts, buildings, and vehicles.
Digital printing capabilities cover the full spectrum of marketing materials. Business cards receive premium treatment on 350gsm Silk Matt Card, with options for rounded corners and embossed finishes. Brochures and flyers utilize paper stock ranging from 80gsm budget options to 128gsm satin-smooth finishes, with saddle-stitched or wire-bound booklet assembly available. Custom-branded notepads, calendars, posters, and special occasion cards round out their print production services. Each item benefits from the same attention to colour accuracy and finish quality that their equipment enables.
Label printing represents another specialized service area. They focus on short-run labels in both waterproof vinyl and paper formats. These find applications across food packaging, retail products, construction marking, and marine environments. The Roland printer’s waterproof and UV-stable output ensures labels maintain legibility and adhesion regardless of exposure conditions. This versatility makes them suitable for indoor product packaging and outdoor equipment marking alike.
Safety and compliance signage forms part of their commercial offering. Workplace hazard boards and site signs arrive printed on fade-proof fluteboard, meeting regulatory requirements while remaining readable throughout their service life. Election candidates have also discovered their full-colour coreflute signage, which complies with Electoral Commission standards while offering affordable pricing for campaign periods. Banners extend up to 3 meters in height for outdoor applications, with retractable roll-up versions available for events and exhibitions.
Their fine art giclee printing service caters to artists and galleries requiring archival quality reproduction. The Epson SureColor P7560 combines with their Canon R5 camera (50 megapixels) to capture and reproduce artwork with exceptional detail and colour fidelity. Prints reach A1 size on archival media including cotton rag, satin, and gloss photo papers. This specialized service requires technical understanding of colour management and printing processes that goes beyond standard commercial work.
Copying and scanning services address the architecture and construction sectors particularly well. Their plan scanner and printer handle large-format technical drawings, while laser copying serves both business and personal needs at various scales. The combination of equipment types means they can accommodate most document reproduction requirements without outsourcing. Graphic design support comes through Gail Mylne of Mixed Media Design, who works from their Otaki office. Services include logo creation, branding development, and signage design, with a collaborative process that incorporates client feedback throughout.
Their business model emphasizes efficiency at multiple levels. Bulk purchasing of standard products reduces material costs. Careful sourcing from overseas suppliers provides access to quality materials at competitive prices. The online ordering system reduces manual labour requirements, with those savings passed to clients rather than absorbed as profit. On-demand digital printing eliminates stockpiling, reducing waste while ensuring fresh production for each order. These operational choices reflect a broader commitment to environmental responsibility, complemented by partnerships with suppliers who share similar values.
Community engagement extends beyond commercial transactions. They have supported local initiatives including complimentary Anzac Day labels, demonstrating connection to the regions they serve. Customer support remains accessible through telephone and live chat for advice on design options, print specifications, and product selection. Clients can also visit the Otaki location directly, either for consultation or to deliver work for immediate processing. This accessibility reinforces their position as a responsive partner rather than simply a transaction-based service.
