Custom-printed acrylic displays: what to expect

Adding your logo to an acrylic display sounds fiddly, but it's a straightforward part of the process if you know what to ask for.

Our in-house print service works directly onto the acrylic, so your branding goes on display cases, pedestals, or product stands without a separate sticker or wrap. That matters for anything customers will handle or look at close up, like a suggestion box or a sports display case.

Thickness makes a difference too. Sheets come in 2mm, 3mm, 4mm and 5mm, and the right one depends on whether the piece is a lightweight poster display or a pedestal that needs to hold weight.

Everything's manufactured here in the UK and kept in stock, so there's no minimum order to worry about if you just need one branded piece for an event or a shop counter.

Lockable Display Cases: Do They Really Build Customer Trust?

A display case that can't be locked isn't just a security risk, it's a signal to your customers that the items inside aren't worth protecting. For retailers and businesses showcasing high-value products, that impression matters more than most people realise.

Lockable display boxes send a clear message: what's inside is worth securing. Whether you're displaying sports memorabilia, jewellery, or premium merchandise, a locked case tells customers the product has genuine value before they've even read the label. It also reduces shrinkage, keeps items in pristine condition, and creates a more professional retail environment overall. What kind of products do you currently display, and are they properly protected? If security hasn't been part of your display strategy yet, it's worth reconsidering. 🔒

Retail Acrylics manufactures bespoke lockable acrylic display cases right here in the UK, with no minimum order requirements and free delivery on orders over £150. Got a specific display challenge you're trying to solve? Drop your question in the comments.

Acrylic Display Solutions Built for Pharmacies

Pharmacies face a challenge most retailers don't: products need to be visible and accessible, but also protected from handling, contamination, and theft. Clear acrylic display cases and lockable boxes solve this directly, keeping items on show without putting them at risk of damage or pilfering.

Lockable acrylic display boxes let customers see exactly what's on offer while staff retain control over access. Pair that with a sneeze guard screen at the counter (freestanding options start from £124.99 ex. VAT and come in 70cm or 100cm widths, with or without a serving hatch) and you've got a setup that keeps both products and staff protected. For higher-value items like skincare ranges or OTC medicines, a clear acrylic display case keeps products dust-free and presentable throughout the day. Everything is UK-manufactured, in stock with no minimum order, and free delivery applies on orders over £150. 🏪

What's your current biggest display headache in a pharmacy or retail setting? Are you prioritising theft prevention, hygiene, or just making products easier to browse? Let us know below.

Trade Show Season: Are Your Product Stands Ready?

Walking a busy exhibition floor, it's the stands that stop people mid-stride that win the business. If you're planning a trade show appearance and still piecing together your display setup, the right acrylic stands and cases can make a significant difference to how your products are perceived on the day. Acrylic display pedestals (available from 30cm to 120cm high), lockable display cases, and clear product stands all work together to create a professional, eye-catching setup that lets your products do the talking rather than getting lost on a crowded table.

Retail Acrylics manufactures all products in the UK, holds comprehensive stock with no minimum order, and offers free UK delivery on orders over £150 plus express delivery if your show date is coming up fast. You can also add your logo directly through their in-house print service, which keeps branding consistent across every piece on your stand. So, what type of display tends to draw the most attention at trade shows in your experience? And are you still sorting your stand setup for any upcoming autumn exhibitions? 👇

Pedestal Grouping: Why Height Variety Makes a Difference

Flat displays lose attention fast. When everything sits at the same level, there's no natural focal point to draw the eye, and products end up competing rather than complementing each other. Grouping pedestals at varied heights solves this immediately by creating a visual hierarchy that guides customers through a display in a deliberate, engaging way.

A few approaches that work well in practice: start with a tall centrepiece (something in the 90cm range works well for statement products), then flank it with mid-height and shorter units to build depth. Odd-numbered groupings of three or five tend to look more natural than even pairings. You can also use colour contrast across your pedestals to reinforce the tiered effect, particularly useful in retail environments where you want specific items to catch the eye first. With heights ranging from 30cm to 120cm, Retail Acrylics pedestals give you plenty of scope to build out these kinds of arrangements without needing to source from multiple suppliers. 🎯

What kind of products do you typically display, and do you tend to go for a uniform look or something more layered? We'd be curious to know how others are approaching their setups.

Product Stand Placement: Getting More From Less Floor Space

Retail floor space costs money, and every square metre needs to work hard. The way you arrange product stands can be the difference between a display that sells and one that gets ignored. Vertical arrangements using pedestals and plinths (available from 30cm up to 120cm high) draw the eye upward and free up valuable counter and floor space, letting you showcase more products without crowding the customer's path. Layering heights with acrylic steps and bridge stands creates visual depth that naturally guides shoppers through a range, rather than presenting everything at the same flat level.

Strategic placement also means thinking about sightlines and access. Lockable display cases work well for higher-value items positioned at eye level near the till, where foot traffic is highest. Product stands and poster displays placed at entry points set expectations for what's inside the store before a customer has taken more than a few steps. What tends to get overlooked is the space directly beside counters and along walls, both of which suit freestanding acrylic displays that need no fixings and can be repositioned easily. Which area of your retail setup do you find hardest to merchandise effectively? Drop a comment below, we'd be glad to share some ideas. 👇

Suggestion Box Results: What To Do With Customer Feedback

Most businesses collect feedback and then do nothing with it. A physical suggestion box only works if there's a clear process behind it for reviewing responses, spotting patterns, and acting on what customers actually say. The real value isn't in the collection, it's in what happens after.

A lockable acrylic suggestion box (from £58.33 ex. VAT) placed at a till point or reception desk makes it easy for customers to leave honest, unprompted feedback. Once you're regularly reviewing submissions, look for recurring themes, whether that's a product gap, a service issue, or something simpler like signage or layout. Two or three consistent comments on the same topic are usually worth acting on. What's the most useful piece of feedback your business has ever received from a customer? 🗳️

Display Case Transport: Don't Let Event Setup Day Become a Nightmare

Getting your products to an event in perfect condition is half the battle. A cracked acrylic display case or a scratched lid discovered five minutes before doors open can derail everything, and it's almost always preventable with a bit of planning before you even leave the building.

Wrap each case individually using bubble wrap or foam padding, keeping lids and bases separated where possible to avoid pressure points during transit. If you're stacking multiple units, place the heaviest items at the bottom and use cardboard dividers between layers. For lockable display boxes, make sure they're actually locked shut before loading, as an unlatched lid is far more likely to flex and crack under movement. Acrylic is durable, but it doesn't forgive sharp impacts or prolonged pressure against hard surfaces. 🚐

What's your current go-to method for transporting display cases to events? And if you've had a case arrive damaged before, what would you do differently now? Drop your thoughts below. Whether you're running a trade stand, a retail pop-up, or a product launch, getting this right saves you real money and stress on the day. 📦

Modular Product Stands: Display More, Stress Less

Swapping out your stock shouldn't mean rebuilding your entire display from scratch. Modular product stand systems from Retail Acrylics are designed exactly for this, letting you reconfigure your layout as your stock changes without the hassle or the cost of starting over.

Product stands, steps, and bridge displays can be combined to create tiered, multi-level arrangements that make the most of limited counter or floor space. Pair them with acrylic pedestals and plinths (available from 30cm up to 120cm high) and you've got a flexible system that works whether you're showcasing a single hero product or a full range. Everything is manufactured in the UK, held in stock with no minimum order, and qualifies for free UK delivery on orders over £150. 🛒 What does your current display setup look like, and is it keeping up with how often your stock changes?
