About this product

A multi-piece corrugated counter display designed for tiered retail presentation. It uses a five-piece construction: an outer tray, an internal support stringer, and three reinforced step covers. This creates a sturdy, clean-lined point-of-purchase unit.

Because it relies on manual assembly of multiple components, this display prioritizes presentation quality and shelf strength over fast fulfillment speeds.

Common uses

Cosmetics counter displays
Small packaged goods
Confectionery point-of-purchase

Retail Counter Presentation

Cosmetics and beauty products

The tiered steps provide clear visibility for small bottles, tubes, and jars, ensuring each row is visible to the shopper.

Confectionery and impulse buys

A strong fit for checkout counters where small packaged goods need organized, accessible presentation.

Small electronics and accessories

Useful for displaying cables, chargers, and small boxed tech items in a compact footprint.

Pharmacy and health goods

Organizes vitamins, supplements, and over-the-counter items clearly without stacking them on top of each other.

Fulfillment and Co-Packing

Manual fulfillment operations

This display arrives flat as five separate pieces. Co-packers erect the main tray, fold and insert the U-shaped support stringer, and then fold and place the three hollow step covers. It relies on manual assembly and requires planned pack-out time.

Retail counter space limits

The tiered design maximizes vertical space, allowing more product facings in a small footprint at the register.

High-visibility product launches

The separate step covers and outer tray offer distinct print surfaces, allowing for premium branding and clean presentation.

When to Consider Simpler Displays

High-speed fulfillment needs

If the assembly labor for five separate pieces is too high, evaluate single-piece pop-up displays. Those assemble faster but may lack the reinforced hollow shelves of this multi-piece design.

Heavy product loads

For very heavy items like large beverage bottles, corrugated steps may buckle. Evaluate permanent wood or plastic displays for extreme weight requirements.

Print, Board, and Packing Choices

Print panel placement and hidden components

The outer tray and the three step covers are highly visible and typically printed. The internal U-shaped stringer is mostly hidden and can sometimes be run unprinted to manage costs.

Board flute and vertical load capacity

Standard B-flute provides good rigidity for the internal stringer and hollow shelves. For smaller footprint displays where a smoother print surface is needed, E-flute is an option, though it reduces the vertical load capacity of the steps.

Outer master carton requirements

This display has an open top and loose step covers. It cannot be shipped as a standalone parcel. It requires a properly sized outer master carton to transport the loaded display to retail.

Assembly instructions for co-packers

Because the display involves five pieces and specific folding steps for the hollow covers, printed assembly instructions are often required for the fulfillment center.

Structural Adjustments

Tread depth and display angle

The depth of the steps and the overall angle of the display can be adjusted to fit specific product footprints, ensuring items sit securely without tipping.

Step height and riser visibility

The vertical height of each step can be modified to expose more or less of the product behind the front lip.

Front lip height for product retention

The retaining lip on the front of the tray and each step can be raised to hold taller or unstable items securely.

Packing details

Locking tongues for step retention

The front lips of the step covers feature small locking tongues that tuck into slots on the internal stringer. This prevents the covers from lifting or dislodging when customers remove products.

Mechanical roll-over tray locks

The main outer tray uses mechanical roll-over locks on the front and back walls to trap the side panels, eliminating the need for adhesive during assembly.

Additional notes

Multi-piece assembly labor

Because the display consists of five separate flat blanks, co-packers must account for the time required to fold and seat the internal stringer and the three hollow step covers.

FAQs

What is the assembly sequence for the five pieces?

The outer tray is erected using mechanical roll-over locks. A U-shaped support stringer is folded and placed inside, and then three individual step covers are folded into hollow beams and placed on the stringer.

Which components require retail graphics?

The outer tray and the three step covers are fully visible. The internal support stringer is mostly hidden, though its top surface forms the highest step and may need printing depending on the design.

Does the loaded display need an outer shipper?

Yes. Because it has an open top and rests on mechanical locks, the loaded display must be packed inside a corrugated master carton for safe transit to retail locations.

What determines the weight capacity of the steps?

The weight is carried by the hollow step covers transferring load to the stepped side wings of the internal stringer. Standard B-flute supports typical small retail goods, but heavy items should be prototyped to ensure the internal stringer does not buckle.

How long does it take to assemble this display?

Because it requires folding and seating five separate pieces, including three hollow step covers, it takes significantly longer than a single-piece pop-up display. Fulfillment centers should plan accordingly.

Can we test the step strength before a full run?

Yes. A digital sample cut from the intended board grade allows you to load the display with your actual products to verify the internal stringer and step covers hold the weight.

What board thickness is typically used?

B-flute is common because it provides good rigidity for the internal stringer and hollow shelves. E-flute can be used for smaller displays where a smoother print surface is prioritized.

Can the number of steps be changed?

Changing the number of steps requires a completely different template logic for the internal holder and the covers. This specific template is designed exactly for four tiers.
