Acrylic Counter & Tabletop Cosmetic Displays

Engineered for beauty bars, brand counters, and POS-adjacent zones — where every centimeter of countertop matters

Form Factor Engineering Brief

Counter and tabletop cosmetic displays sit in the most space-constrained zone of any retail floor — typically 30-80cm wide on a counter that must also accommodate POS hardware, gift bags, and shopper interaction. Our counter displays are engineered around three constraints: low center of gravity (footprint-to-height ratio ≥ 1:2 for shopper-bump stability), 3-5mm cell-cast acrylic with diamond-polished edges (no chipping under daily wipe-down), and flush-base anti-slip pads that don't damage countertop laminates or stone surfaces.

Why Counter Displays Are Engineered Differently

Shopper-Bump Stability

Counter zones see 2,000+ daily shopper interactions. Our footprint-to-height ratio prevents tipping from accidental contact.

POS Integration

Cable cutouts, magnetic-strip pockets, and tablet docks built into the chassis when needed.

Wipe-Down Friendly

Diamond-polished edges and rounded corners — no chipping after daily 70%-alcohol wipe-down for shared testers.

Modular Stacking

Counter risers nest with tester organizers and tiered palettes — buildable into multi-component counter sets.
