Choosing a material for your custom retail displays is one of the first decisions we’ll help you make when you turn to us at d3. For many of our clients, wood is an obvious choice. But there are different types of wood you may want to use for your custom retail displays to get the results you want.

Types of Wood Typically Used to Create Custom Retail Displays

  • Solid wood – This natural material is becoming more and more popular for custom retail displays because it’s durable, strong, and highly versatile. Many of our clients like wood because there are tons of hardwood and softwood species you can use to create a unique display look. You can also paint or stain wood different colors.
  • Plywood – Just like solid wood, plywood is also durable, strong, and versatile. We like plywood because you can stain it or paint it. We also recommend plywood if you want to add direct print graphics to your display.
  • MDF – This type of wood is frequently used for custom retail displays because it’s one of the most cost-effective materials currently on the market. MDF is a composite wood material often used as an alternative to plywood because of cost. Compared to particleboard, MDF is superior when it comes to durability and strength.

Solid wood, plywood, and MDF are all solid bases you should consider for your custom retail displays. If you want to know more or have questions about materials to use in your displays, get in touch with us today.
