As you put together your retail merchandise displays, it’s important to balance creativity with practicality. Plastic Bullnose Shelves are a great store display solution that accomplishes both goals. Retail Bullnose Shelves allow you to achieve a high-end look in your store without the expense of custom shelving.Add New

Plastic Bullnose Shelves are made of injection molded plastic. These store shelves are durable, lightweight and feature a rounded front edge, (also known as radial edge, radius edge or bullnose edge), creating a contemporary and clean looking store display.

Bullnose display shelves come in different color options including black, white and simulated wood grains such as the Maple Bullnose Shelf sold at www.discountshelving.com. One of the best things about Plastic Bullnose Shelving is that the color is infused throughout the shelf so the color doesn’t fade. The plastic material also will not chip or fade.

The Versatility of Plastic Bullnose Shelves

Plastic Bullnose Shelves are versatile, as they can be used with Gridwall, Slatwall and Slotted Standard displays. These plastic bullnose shelves typically come in 13” deep or 15” deep options in 24” or 48” lengths.

• Use shelf knife brackets, sold separately, made to fit your Gridwall, Slatwall and Slotted Standard displays.
• Use 12” knife brackets for 13” deep Plastic Bullnose Shelves. For 15” deep shelves use 14” shelf knife brackets.
• The number of brackets you need depends on the length of shelf.  Use two shelf brackets per 24” long shelf. We recommend using a total of three shelf brackets per 48” long shelf for extra support.
• Each Bullnose Shelf features an open bottom design so that the shelf bracket is hidden from view giving your Plastic Bullnose Shelves a floating appearance.
• Each Plastic Bullnose Shelf will hold up to 40 pounds per four feet of small to medium sized merchandise such as clothing, packaged products, small electronics, stationery, books, giftware, toys, cigars and etc.

Set up is fast and easy. Any store employee can quickly set up these lightweight shelves.

Spring is finally here! Retailers have been busy recently gearing up for the change of season.  One of our customers sent us photos showing how she tricked out her gridwall for Spring Sales.

It’s no surprise that gridwall panels continue to be a favorite choice for store owners especially those who want to maximize space.  Plus, retailers can get really creative with merchandising by simply using the many accessories available for grid displays.  Choose from wood shelves, tempered glass shelves, acrylic shelves and wire shelving, as well as gridwall baskets, specialty product holders and containers designed for grid panels.  Add hang rails, face-outs and grid hooks to best present your products to customers. Finish grid displays off with grid sign holders and signs of varying styles to further attract your customers’ attention.

If you have floor space, consider using standing grid displays.  Add grid legs and bases with rolling casters to create a portable grid display.  Grid displays are our top seller for use at trade shows or outdoor markets.  For more information about Gridwall and Gridwall accessories visit: www.discountshelving.com.

In retail, creating the right look is one of the key ingredients to sales success. Smart use of displays and accessories can help put your best merchandise forward.

As you put together your retail displays remember that you want to make a positive impact as soon as a potential customer walks through your door. That first impression will often prove the amount of time they will spend in your store. Keep in mind that most people only give you one chance to make a good first impression. Also, it takes just seconds, a glance for them to form an opinion about your store.

When merchandising, pay careful attention to everything from lighting and store layout, to traffic flow and retail store signage.  Strategic product presentation will also help you make a great impression. One of the best ways to attract your customer’s attention quickly is to use face-out presentations.  Face-out merchandising means having the front part of a product facing the customer.  If you sell books or music, it means titles and CDs are displayed on shelves or easels, with the covers facing the buyer.  Showing just the spines of books or CDs in a bookcase, requires the purchaser to be motivated to work hard to find anything they may want, let alone catch their attention to even want to try!

If you’re selling clothes, face-out merchandising is even more critical.  Don’t hide your merchandise by making the mistake of just hanging clothing on racks where only the edge of a sleeve or shoulder is visible.  For a shopper, it’s like having to dig through a closet aimlessly with no direction.  Not many customers would bother sifting through this type of display without any eye-catching triggers to entice them.

Think about using mannequins and forms to display your clothes. They offer one of the best options for an attractive face-out presentation. It’s proven that “people like to see clothing on people”, to help visualize how clothing will look on themselves. Place clothing forms near folded items to entice customers. Mannequins are typically used to attract attention in display windows and inside to lead buyers to a particular section of a store where often racks of similar clothing set-ups.

If you don’t have the floor space or budget for mannequins, a great alternative is to use apparel racks and accessories.  Many stores use apparel racks and accessories that are designed to create effective face-out merchandising.

Which racks and accessories offer eye-grabbing appeal?  The following products have proven to help increase sales:

Two-way racks and four-way racks with face-out arms present are compact, perfect for the center of the floor.

Spiral racks offer a cascade effect from which you can hang and feature the same item in different colors.

When capacity is an issue, supplement your round clothing racks, and double bar clothing racks with clothing rack toppers.

Made of wire, glass, or wood, you can display face-out signage or forms on top of these rack toppers.

On walls, use straight-outs, waterfalls and slant arms. Unlike shelves straight-outs, waterfalls, and slant arms give you the opportunity to practically “reach out” to your customers.

When it comes to merchandising, don’t be shy, grab and entice your customers with face-out displays.
