On a flat tray, the back row is invisible. A stepped unit lifts each row above the one in front so a customer sees all your stock at once, and it makes a small counter footprint look fuller than it is.

The steps are formed from a single folded corrugated insert rather than glued shelves, which keeps assembly to one movement and stops tiers collapsing under load. Each tier is angled slightly back so product does not walk forward when the counter gets bumped.

Two tiers is the safe choice for most counters. Three works when the product is short, but the top tier starts to block the header and the unit gets tall enough that staff complain about reaching over it.

Free structural dieline, a white load-tested sample and a printed proof. Minimum 50 units, 10 to 12 business days.

Why Brands Order Custom Tiered Counter Display Units

Most brands come to us because an off-the-shelf carton is either half an inch too wide or a shade too shallow. We build the dieline around the product, so it fits first time and looks intentional on the shelf.

Because the artwork is yours end to end, the packaging carries your colours, your typography and your compliance text rather than a generic template.

Board and Material Options for Tiered Counter Display Units

Board choice comes down to weight and shelf position. 14pt-24pt SBS for retail cartons, E or B flute corrugated when boxes ship on their own, uncoated kraft for a recycled look, and 2-3mm rigid for gift and premium tiers.

Ask for a plain sample before you commit - it is the quickest way to feel the difference between two thicknesses.

Printing and Finishing Choices for Tiered Counter Display Units

We print digitally under a few thousand units and move to offset above that, so colour holds without paying plate costs on a small first order. Spot Pantone inks are available for brand-critical shades.

Finishing options include matte and gloss lamination, soft-touch, spot UV, foil stamping, embossing, deboss and window patching. Pick one texture and one highlight rather than stacking effects.

Wholesale Tiered Counter Display Units With Low Minimums

We start at 50 units on this style. Wholesale pricing steps down as volume rises - the jump from 250 to 1,000 units is where most brands see the biggest per-box saving.

There are no die or plate charges on repeat orders, so reorders of the same box come in cheaper than the first run.

How to Order Your Custom Printed Tiered Counter Display Units

Tell us the product, the quantity and the look you are after. We return a dieline, a 3D mockup and itemised pricing, usually the same working day, and print in 10-12 business days once you sign off the proof.
