Book counter display
A book counter display is a small tiered cardboard unit that stands books face-out on a shop counter, so covers are seen and picked up at the till.
The unit shown uses water-resistant board to cope with occasional spills in cafés and busy stores. The tiers keep front and back rows visible at the same time.
How it works
Two tiers hold books upright with the covers facing the customer. Bookstores, gift shops, campus cafés and children’s library corners use it for new releases, gift editions and small-format titles.
Header and sides can carry your store colors, a title theme or a seasonal message.
Printing and finishes
Print the header with a reading theme, an author promotion or your store branding in full color.
Common finishes include gloss or matte lamination, spot UV, embossing and hot stamping. We recommend the finish that suits the store environment and your budget.
Materials
The display combines a printable white surface with a corrugated core, so it stays stiff on the counter and prints sharply.
Holidaypac is FSC® certified, and FSC®-certified board is available for your display on request.
