Unpacking, filling, assembling — every extra step costs time and money

A pallet of boxes at the retailer means unpacking, removing the product, assembling the display, and placing the product back inside. Four steps, four opportunities for errors to occur.

A stacking tray skips those steps. The product is already in the tray. And the tray immediately serves as the display. The retailer simply opens the front or removes the top cover, and it is ready.

From pallet to display in a single movement

A stacking tray is a cardboard package with an open front, designed to both transport and present the product. The trays are stacked on top of each other to form a complete display — on the shop floor, in the aisle, or next to the shelf.

Features:

  • Open front for immediate product visibility
  • Stackable — multiple trays together form the display
  • Delivered pre-filled — product is in the tray upon departure
  • Full-color printed on all visible surfaces
  • Corrugated cardboard for maximum strength during transport and stacking height

A stacking tray costs hardly more than a shipping carton

You need a shipping carton to transport your product anyway. The additional cost of a stacking tray compared to a standard shipping carton is limited: a modified cover shape and potentially extra printing colors.

What you get in return:

  • No separate display material required
  • No additional in-store handling for the retailer
  • Consistent brand experience in every store
  • Faster placement, one step instead of four

From factory to shop floor in four steps

1. Filling

Product is placed in the tray at the producer’s site or in our warehouse. The tray is sealed for transport.

2. Transport

The filled trays are stacked on a pallet and shipped.

3. Placement

The retailer removes the transport cover and stacks the trays on the shop floor. Open front, product immediately visible.

4. Refilling

Each tray is individually replaced or refilled. No need to dismantle the entire display.

What this provides:

  • No filling errors at the retailer
  • Consistent brand experience in every store
