Use Point of Sale Display Cases to Prompt Impulse Buys

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011

Impulse purchases often happen at the point of sale. This part of a retail establishment is very effective in luring customers into buying items they would otherwise not notice had they been put somewhere else in the store. The point of sale is the area in a retail space where purchases are made – usually the checkout area or the place where the cash register is located. Point of sale display cases can simply be integrated with the cash wrap or be the cash wrap itself. In fact, they can be any kind of product presentation set up situated near this part of the store, whether it be a literature rack, a rotating display fixture, or a countertop showcase placed on the cash wrap.

Cash wraps play a big part in establishing a profitable point of sale. A well designed unit can help maximize the space and in turn, provide a wider place for establishing impulse-buy items. When designing your point of sale area, you should keep in mind the types of items that will most likely to be grabbed at the last minute, as well as how you should place them in a way that would catch attention. Grocery stores often line their checkout counter with magazine racks, gum and candy dispensers, and other such items. Hardware stores often put flashlights, gloves, tape measures, and pencils. Whatever type of products you choose to display in your check out counter, just make sure they are organized in neat point of sale display cases to attract the eyes of buyers.

Counter or cash wraps can be as simple as a table-top or a plain old stand holding the cash register, while others go as grand as a large curved cash wrap with different kinds of attachments, which can double as storage spaces and can be used as point of sale displays as well.

You can find a wide variety of cash wraps here at Tecno Display. We manufacture different designs ideal for retail and commercial spaces. They can be configured with roll out trays for computer key boards, open shelves and drawers, and other elements to maximize utility. Wide counter tops are also available. Tecno Display can provide you with the displays cases to suit your retail store.  We have a wide range of cash wraps to choose from, depending on the type of store or establishment you may have. They can also be used as a counter for reception areas and in other similar applications.

Hobby Stores Display Cases

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011

Hobby stores are often frequented by avid collectors and hobbyists who just love to seek out new things. If you own or manage such a store, you want to catch the attention of these people so as to bring in more paying customers. One of the best ways of luring customers into your space is by using catchy presentation. Whether you sell model kits, crafts, collectibles, toys, and other curios, the way you present your merchandise can influence the buying habits of your customers. Here is where hobby stores display cases come in handy. Usual store fixtures like shelving, wall panels, and display cabinets are fundamental when establishing the look of the whole store, but hey don’t quite have the catchiness needed to really grab attention. Adding a little bit more would not hurt, especially when trying to showcase the beauty of your products.

For example, model cars, planes, trucks, and ships shouldn’t be left in the open, gathering dust and exposed to other damaging elements. For security, safekeeping and presentation, these collector items should be encased either in a collective display cabinet or individual cases. The same goes with figurines, porcelain dolls, and other hobby store staples. These collector items can be displayed and kept in dome shaped cases made out of glass, enhanced by a wooden base.

If you want your store fixture looking as elegant as possible, Tecno Display is the place to go to. We offer a wide selection of display showcases and quality store fixtures to help you pull in more paying customers.

Many retailers prefer custom made display cabinets that can hold a good amount of items, but still showcase their individual beauty and appeal. Many also go for framed and wall mounted displays, which are very ideal for smaller and lighter items. Antique style displays are often used in arts and crafts stores, adding to that old world charm. Other types of display cabinets that can be used to enhance the look of a hobby store include curio and china cabinets, bookcases, and even plain old jewelry cases, all of which can be customized to your liking.

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011

They come in many different shapes and sizes, and can either be free standing or wall mounted and used for outdoor or indoor applications. These display solutions are often found in schools, office establishments, large buildings, museums, and even in restaurants, showcasing their menus and other highlights. They can be custom designed to meet specific requirements such as particular locking mechanisms, lighting fixtures, and door configurations.

Wood and glass display cases

Saturday, October 15th, 2011

Wooden display cases have a certain elegance and sophistication to them. They are classy additions to any home and space, whether you want to store and display exhibits, memorabilia, trophies, models, or even retail items. They can even be enhanced with the addition of glass elements, like a glass doors, shelving, or walls. Wood and glass display cases are among the most elegant pieces of furniture for homes, museums, retail spaces, and offices. With the variety of hard and soft woods that can be used to make these cabinets, there are hardly any limits when it comes to design.

You can choose to custom design your piece or choose an existing design from our extensive product line. We carry jewelry showcases, tower displays, countertop showcases, and many other types of display devices for all kinds of occasions.

The feel and look of a wooden cabinet mostly depend on the type of wood used. Hardwoods like walnut, cherry, oak, maple, and rosewood are among the most commonly used types of wood for furniture because of their well defined and attractive grain patterns, not to mention their durability. Softwoods, on the other hand, have less defined grain patterns, and are more ideal for making light display boxes. Lacquer, gloss, or oil finishes are often applied to softwoods like pine.

Wood and glass display cases
often look more sophisticated than plain and simple wooden cabinets. Glass is a very versatile material. Colored, stained or textured glasses are ideal for decorative purposes, while clear tempered are ideal for showcasing items. Some retail stores choose acrylic over glass because it’s cheaper and less fragile. Glass however, is less prone to scratches, and is ultimately classier.

Whatever type of display case you may need, Tecno Display can provide you with the best choices. We have been pleasing clients since 1976, boasting a long line of products to suit any requirement.

Display Cases for Sport Memorabilia

Friday, October 7th, 2011

When shopping for display cases for sport memorabilia, autographed items, and other prized collectibles, you should prioritize quality over prize. You wouldn’t want your collection to lose value due to damage and poor maintenance, which is why buying the right storage and showcase for them is an important task. Whether you have a bunch of baseballs or bats, footballs and jerseys, and just about any type of sport collectible you can think of, Tecno Display can provide you with the most fitting display case for your collection.

There are many ways to display your collectibles.

  • Jerseys can be stored in one large frame. If you don’t have enough wall space, you can use a small shadow box where you can fold the jersey in such a way that any signature or the jersey number itself shows.
  • Glass frames can come in handy when displaying signed posters, photographs or collectible cards, especially when you are not content keeping them in photo albums or scrapbooks.
  • Balls are among the most popular collector’s items that almost every sports memorabilia collector has. There are many different display cases built especially for different kinds of balls, although cube cases are among the most popular, especially for smaller balls like golf balls and baseballs.
  • Bowling balls, basketballs, as well as footballs are best displayed in larger cube cases, which can also be used for helmets and masks, as well as for boxing gloves that can easily be displayed on desk tops.
  • Long sports items like baseball bats or hockey sticks can take up lots of space, especially when you own multiple pieces. Racks are very useful for these kinds of collectibles. However, if you want to preserve the signatures, you may want to invest in custom made cases and frames for your item.
  • Custom framing for your sport memorabilia is ideal if you want to organize a set of items together, such as a jersey, baseball bat, and ball in one frame.

Standard Display Cases – Versatility and Quality

Friday, October 7th, 2011

Products, collections, exhibits, and even home displays can be showcased and presented in many ways. There are numerous types of display equipment and devices you can choose from, depending on your needs. Retailers who join trade shows often invest in portable display cases, which can easily be assembled, disassembled, and carried wherever exhibits and trade fairs take them. Museum owners invest in timeless pieces appropriate for the value of the artifacts. Whatever type of business or establishment you own, it is always a good idea to have standard display cases in handy, especially if you anticipate expansion. They are pretty simple in terms of structure. They are often built with rectangular box frames, several shelving units (often adjustable), wooden or metal bases, flat tops, and strong body structures that are often made out of glass or acrylic. These types of showcases have typical features and can be found in most furniture shops and manufacturers like Tecno Display. Some of the common features include:

Shelving —  Almost all display cases, especially those used for retail and product presentation, have shelving or some kind of partition, making them versatile enough to hold multiple items in an organized manner.

Glass doors – Standard display cases typically have sliding doors; others are hinged for easy access of the interiors. Glass is often used for a display case’s body, to allow better viewing of products and other displays. Glass cases are very common because of their durability, elegance, and function. Glass doors are also very important to ensure security and ease of use.

Locking Mechanisms — Locks have become standard features. They give security and restrict access to your valued items.

Lighting — Display cases often have built in lighting systems to highlight the best angles of the items. Halogen lights are among the most commonly used, especially for retail displays, although LED lights are gaining popularity nowadays. Whichever type of light you may choose to put into your display case, make sure that it does not emit too much heat, which can cause damage to your products.

If you are looking for basic display cases with quality, check out Tecno Display, one of the leading manufacturers of well built and versatile display cases. We have a reputation of producing timeless pieces that can withstand generations, with proper care and maintenance. We take client satisfaction at heart, as evidenced by our almost 4 decades of service.

Ensuring Quality in Display Cases

Friday, October 7th, 2011

Whether you choose to build your own display cabinet or purchase quality display cases from trusty manufacturers like Tecno Display, you should be very particular about using only the best materials to ensure quality, durability, and aesthetics. Collectibles, carefully built scale models, retail products, and important artifacts deserve better care than second-rate display cabinets can provide. Cherished items as well as products that you invest in should be kept in a showcase that can protect them from wear and tear.

There are certain parts and components that you should look closely at when purchasing or custom designing quality display cases. The framing should be as sturdy as possible. You can choose from a wide range of hardwoods and metals. Glass (though more expensive) is ideal for the body, especially if you want maximum exposure or a full view for your products or collection. You may also use optimum acrylic sheets which are clear enough, and provide good protection from UV exposure and other outside elements. Acrylic materials are also scratch resistant, and can easily be cleaned and polished like glass. However, acrylic is more durable and less prone to breaking than glass, which makes it a better choice for busy retail spaces. Hardwoods are the best materials to use for base structures as they are durable and elegant. Whichever types of materials you choose for your display case, always consider the use, location, and most especially the items you want to display so you can choose accordingly.

Here at Tecno Display, we only use the best quality materials to produce superior display cases for your business or your home. We have been experts in wood and glass work for several decades, combining experience, professionalism, and good eye for detail. We carry great lines of showcases, from cash wraps to countertop cases, shadow boxes, and even pedestals and tower cases.  Have a look at our catalog now.

Sports Memorabilia and Display Cases

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

Authentic sports collectibles should be preserved and kept so as to maintain their monetary and sentimental value. They are excellent investments especially for a sports enthusiast like yourself, which is why sports memorabilia and display cases should be the first item on your list when it comes to organizing or putting these items on display. It is wise to have individual cases for items such as jerseys, baseball bats, footballs and helmets. Cramming all these items in one case can decrease their appeal and value.

If you want to customize a display case for your prized sports collection, look no further than Tecno Display. We are one of the leading manufacturers of glass cabinets, tower cases, other fixtures, as well as finely designed collectible cases to fit all your display needs. The company has been producing quality displays since 1976, and has always been lauded for expert craftsmanship and cabinetry.

Autographed memorabilia are some of the most valued collectibles one can keep, which is why protecting those signatures from smudges is very important. Don’t settle for a mounting stand for that autographed football or baseball. Choose a glass case that will not only protect your memorabilia from fingerprints and smudging, but from dust and other elements as well.

Sports memorabilia and display cases are very much customizable. Some take pleasure in putting the team’s logo on the base of display cases, while others request for stackable pieces (especially people who plan to expand their collections over time). Glass enclosures with wooden or mirrored bottoms are common, but there are also cushioned bases. How the item is mounted also adds to its beauty. Avid collectors don’t settle for frame displays; they often go for wall mounts, especially when showcasing jerseys, hockey sticks, and the like.

Invest on well made and finely designed showcases from Tecno Display. We take client satisfaction at heart and provide the finest and highest quality fixtures that can best showcase the beauty of any collection.
