Frequently Asked Questions About Cardboard Counter Displays & Display Boxes
What is a cardboard counter display box (PDQ)?
A cardboard counter display box (commonly called a PDQ tray or countertop display box) is a compact, lightweight corrugated retail fixture placed on retail checkout counters, tabletops or cash wraps to organize small packaged goods and stimulate impulse purchases.
What board materials do you use for corrugated counter displays?
We manufacture counter displays using premium coated CCNB paperboard mounted to high-density E-flute, B-flute, or micro-flute corrugated cardboard. This delivers crisp graphic printing while providing rigid structural support without sagging.
How much weight can a custom countertop display box hold?
Standard countertop display boxes hold between 3 kg to 8 kg (6.6 to 17.6 lbs). For heavier products such as glass dropper bottles, canned drinks or metal tools, we incorporate double-thick sidewalls, internal support gussets and reinforced base liners capable of supporting 10 kg to 15+ kg.
Can counter display boxes be customized for specific industries like CBD, cosmetics, or snacks?
Yes. We frequently produce custom cardboard display boxes tailored for CBD display boxes, skincare and cosmetic blister packs, confectionery, tech accessories, pain relief supplements and stationery, complete with custom die-cut insert trays and dividers.
Are your cardboard counter displays shipped flat-packed?
Yes. Over 98% of our custom cardboard counter displays and PDQ boxes are engineered to ship 100% flat-packed. They feature pre-creased fold lines and self-locking tabs for fast, tool-free assembly at retail stores in under 60 seconds.
What is the MOQ and turnaround time for custom counter displays?
Our MOQ starts at 100 units. We provide free 3D digital renderings within 24 hours, unprinted or printed physical prototypes in 2–3 business days, and mass production typically ships within 10–12 business days.
