About this product

The EVC61033 is a two-piece corrugated counter display designed for retail point-of-purchase environments. Featuring faceted side walls and two distinct product tiers with angled backs, it maximizes vertical presentation space for small items like cosmetics, snacks, or packaged parts.

Instead of relying on a single massive blank, this design uses a side-seam glued main body and a separate shelf insert. This approach simplifies the folding sequence at fulfillment and allows the display to ship flat efficiently before manual assembly.

Common uses

Cosmetics and lip balm counters
Confectionery and snack checkout displays
Small hardware or parts presentation

Retail and Point-of-Purchase Applications

Checkout and counter presentation

The compact footprint and tiered shelves make this display a strong fit for high-visibility retail counters. The angled shelf backs push products forward, ensuring small items remain visible and accessible to shoppers.

Lightweight packaged goods

Because the shelves rely on corrugated tab-and-slot connections to the rear wall, this display is suited for lightweight items like lip balms, snack pouches, or small boxed cosmetics. Heavy items can cause the shelf slots to tear or sag.

Seasonal or promotional campaigns

The flat-shipping nature of the two-piece design makes it efficient to distribute for temporary retail promotions. Store staff can assemble the display and stock it with seasonal inventory.

Sample or trial-size distribution

The two distinct tiers allow brands to separate different product variants or offer trial sizes on the lower shelf while keeping standard sizes on the upper tier.

Fulfillment and Co-Packing Realities

Co-packing and manual assembly

The display arrives knocked-down. The manufacturer glues the main body's side seam, allowing the outer shell to be opened easily. Fulfillment teams then manually lock the base, fold the integrated lower shelf, and install the separate upper shelf insert.

Retail store floor setup

If shipped flat to the retail location, store employees can erect the display without specialized tools. The tab-and-slot shelf connections provide a clear assembly path without needing extra adhesive.

Brand marketing and merchandising

Merchandisers can use the angled shelf backs and faceted side walls to maximize branding space. The stepped design ensures that products on the lower shelf do not obscure the branding on the upper tier.

When to Consider Alternative Displays

Heavy product loads

If you are displaying heavy items like beverages or metal hardware, a display with a reinforced, load-bearing floor or a different shelf-locking mechanism should be evaluated. Tab-and-slot shelves have strict weight limits.

Single-tier requirements

If your product assortment only needs one presentation level, a single-shelf variant will reduce material usage and eliminate the need for the secondary shelf insert.

Board, Print, and Transit Decisions

Board grade and flute profile

B-flute is a common choice, offering enough rigidity for the back wall without creating excessive bulk at the folds. E-flute is an excellent option for smaller displays, providing a smoother print surface. Thicker grades like C-flute should be avoided, as the complex folds of the integrated shelf flap may bind or crack.

Master shipper planning

This display has an open front and top. It is not designed for direct parcel shipping on its own. You will want to specify a properly sized corrugated master shipper to protect the loaded display during transit.

Print surface targeting

The angled backs of both shelves and the horizontal floors are highly visible to the consumer as products are removed. Artwork should be planned to use these interior surfaces, not just the outer side walls and header.

Shelf weight capacity and testing

The tab-and-slot connections bear the weight of the products. It is important to test a physical prototype with your actual products to ensure the back wall slots do not tear under the load.

Display Adjustments and Options

Shelf angle and depth

The slope of the angled shelf backs can be adjusted to match the resting angle of your specific product. However, extreme changes to the shelf angle will alter the geometry of the faceted side walls and should be tested to ensure the locking tabs still align correctly.

Header card integration

The back wall can be extended upward to form a taller header for additional branding, drawing attention to the display from further away on the retail floor.

Side wall facet geometry

The angles and cutouts of the side walls can be modified to reveal more of the product from the side, though this reduces the lateral retention for items placed near the edges.

Packing details

Nesting and die-cutting efficiency

Because the display is split into a main body and a separate shelf insert, the two pieces can often be nested more efficiently on a corrugated sheet during flatbed die-cutting, reducing overall material waste compared to a single oversized blank.

Additional notes

Testing shelf tab strength

If your products are dense, request a physical sample to ensure the rear wall slots do not tear under the downward pressure of the loaded shelves.

FAQs

Does this display require glue during assembly?

The side seam of the main body is glued by the manufacturer before delivery. At your fulfillment center, the display is opened and the shelves lock into place using tabs and slots, requiring no additional glue or tape.

Why is this display made of two separate pieces?

Using a main body and a separate shelf insert keeps the flat cardboard blanks smaller and simpler. This makes the display easier to manufacture, reduces material waste, and simplifies the manual folding steps for the packing team.

Can this display be shipped directly to stores?

Because the front and top are open to display the products, the fully loaded unit should be placed inside a corrugated master shipper for safe transit to the retail location.

How much weight can the shelves hold?

The shelves are supported by corrugated tabs inserted into the back wall. They are designed for lightweight retail goods. Exact weight capacity depends on the chosen board grade and should be validated with a physical prototype loaded with your actual product.

Which parts of the display are best for branding?

In addition to the outer side walls and the front lip, the angled back panels of both shelves are highly visible to shoppers. These interior surfaces are prime locations for branding or product information.

Can I use a heavy-duty board grade for more strength?

Thick materials like C-flute or double-wall board are generally a poor fit. The integrated shelf flap requires precise, tight folds that will bind or crack if the board is too thick. B-flute or E-flute are the recommended choices.

How does the second shelf stay in place?

The separate shelf insert has a top tuck tongue that fits into a slot on the back wall, and bottom tabs that lock into the front lip structure, securing it without adhesive.

Can the angle of the shelves be changed?

Yes, the shelf angle can be adjusted to better present your specific product. However, changing this angle affects the side wall geometry, so a new prototype should be tested to ensure everything still locks together correctly.
