Shelf types

Choose the shelving unit or display stand for what you want to show

Start with what you want to showcase. Products and samples need sturdy free standing shelving with your custom printed graphic behind it, brochures need a literature stand, and a compatible display you already own may only need an add-on accessory.

All four are portable and pack down for transport. The difference is what they hold, the configuration of the shelves and how much printed graphic comes with them.

On your stand

Where a display stand with shelves works on your exhibition stand

Shelving lets visitors see, handle and pick up your products, so your team can demonstrate them instead of only describing them on a banner. Position the shelving at the side of the stand so it does not block your backdrop, and keep a literature stand near the aisle where people stop.

Because the Merchandiser and Waterfall carry a printed graphic, they work as storage and display at once, and the Merchandiser also suits a retail display at a pop-up shop or promotional event.

  • Showcase samples at eye level on multiple shelves
  • Organise A4 brochures and leaflets so they are easy to take
  • Add a double-sided graphic so the stand shelf works from both sides
  • Tool-free assembly, packing into a bag or case
  • Reuse the frame and reprint only the graphic, which zips on, for a new campaign

Complete the stand

Complete your exhibition stand with banners, counters and accessories

Shelves sit alongside the main display rather than replacing it. We print and supply every piece rather than building stands, so you add what you need and reuse it at the next show.

FREE artwork design or proofing on every order. Printed and dispatched within 5 days with express options available. FREE UK delivery on orders of £200 or more.

Frequently asked questions

Which exhibition shelf should I choose?
For products, choose the WaveLine Merchandiser for a large printed graphic with shelves built in, or the Waterfall to place shelves at several heights. For brochures, choose a literature stand. If you already own a compatible display, an add-on shelf is the simplest option.
How much weight can the shelves support?
Each clear Waterfall shelf supports up to 4kg, so up to 12kg across three shelves. Check each product page in the range for the shelf rating before loading heavier products.
Are the shelves included?
The Merchandiser includes one, two or three clear shelves depending on height. The single-sided Waterfall kits include three shelves, while the double-sided Waterfall kits are frame and graphic, with shelves available separately.
What is the best literature stand for A4 brochures?
The A4 zig zag literature stand has six A4 portrait shelves in aluminium and perspex, arranged on both sides, and folds down into its carry case. The soft touch fabric literature stand adds a double-sided printed graphic with wire brochure holders.
Can the display shelf units be printed on both sides?
Yes. The Merchandiser and Waterfall come with single or double-sided graphics, and the soft touch literature stand is printed double-sided.
Do I need tools to assemble them?
No. The Merchandiser snaps together on bungee corded poles, the zig zag stand folds out, and the soft touch literature stand uses a push-fit frame.
How quickly will my shelves arrive?
Printed and dispatched within 5 days with express options available, with free artwork design or proofing on every order.
