Acrylic Display Cases

The acrylic display case is a fantastic and convenient way to showcase merchandise either on your shop counter or shop floor. Perfect for goods that you don’t want handled or disturbed by customers, these mobile and lightweight units keep items safely displayed under lock and key and are available in an array of different styles to suit a variety of retail purposes.

What are acrylic cases?

Acrylic cases are transparent display units that are mostly designed to be placed on shop counters to give prominence to products such as cakes, gifts and memorabilia. The units are usually kept locked, making them ideal for items that are valuable, rare or that can be easily spoiled. They are a popular alternative to glass units for retailers who feel that glass may be a bit heavy or who are worried about the risks of glass breakages. Placing goods in an acrylic countertop display case is a great and secure way of encouraging extra point-of-sale purchases to customers while they are waiting at the counter.

Where can they be used?

All kinds of retailers can make good use of the acrylic display case in Australia. The cabinets can be used to attractively present a wide range of products, from ornamental goods to diecast model cars such as hot wheels and figurines. They are particularly well-suited to stores selling smaller goods that are either expensive or fragile. Examples of stores that can make good use of acrylic units include:

• Cake stores – can create an eye-catching cupcake display case on the counter to wow customers. Cases are also suitable for other foodstuffs such as baguettes or artisan pastries.
• Gift stores – perfect for showcasing small toys, teddy bears or little trinkets in a visually appealing way.
• Collectors stores – rarities and limited editions can be safely displayed in an acrylic collectors case.
• Electronics stores – you can showcase new gadgets and the latest mobile phones and laptops without fear of them getting damaged or stolen in an acrylic display case with lock.

What are the benefits?

They’re durable – acrylic is a tough material, similar to glass. The cases have a good weight-bearing capacity.

They’re easy to use – in addition to giving retailers peace of mind with the secure locking function, cabinets can be easily wiped down and are very lightweight so can be moved around the store with ease. The lightness of the units also means they are easy to ship when purchasing. Delivering an acrylic display case to Brisbane or Adelaide is much cheaper than shipping a glass cabinet.

They’re attractive – cabinets look great on shop counters while at the same time remaining discreet and fitting in nicely with the surroundings. They offer great potential for stylish presentation to any creative retail workers.

Dust free – most units include hinged doors with minimum gaps when closed to reduce the build-up of dust on the displays.

Benefits such as these mean that more and more stores are choosing to showcase their goods in acrylic display cases in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and beyond.
