Key advantages of cardboard displays

These displays offer a great number of benefits for the beverage sector, especially when it comes to promotional launches or special editions:

• Lightweight: thanks to their cardboard composition, they are easy to transport and install at different points of sale.

• Customization: they can be printed with full-color designs, creating a unique and eye-catching brand image.

• Affordable cost: cardboard manufacturing significantly reduces expenses compared to other materials.

• Sustainability: many manufacturers use recycled or renewable cardboard, helping reduce the environmental footprint.

  
  

“The practicality and low cost of cardboard make it one of the main choices for displaying soft drinks, juices, and even wines at any point of sale.”

Disadvantages to consider

Of course, like any solution, cardboard displays also have their limitations:

• Weight resistance depends on the design and thickness of the cardboard. This can make it difficult to place very heavy bottles.

• Lifespan may be shorter compared to other materials, especially in environments with children, high humidity, or frequent cleaning.

  
  

Nevertheless, advances in printing techniques and structural reinforcements have significantly improved the performance of cardboard for displays.

A durable and eco-friendly alternative: MDF wood displays

When greater sturdiness and semi-temporary use are required, MDF displays (Wait, not familiar with MDF? Click here) offer an effective solution.

Although it is a wood-based material, MDF contains no plastic layers and can be printed—like in our case—with water-based latex inks, reinforcing its 100% eco-friendly nature.

Advantages of MDF for beverage displays

• Greater weight resistance: delivered disassembled, but once assembled they can support heavier loads.

• Latex ink printing: a water-based technique that easily integrates into sustainable environments.

• Durability and easy cleaning: even with floor mopping or splashes, MDF maintains its appearance and strength.

Thanks to these features, you get a sturdy display with a long lifespan, ideal for beverages or mid-to-long-term promotional campaigns.
