Custom Double Wall Display Lid
Most display cartons have single thickness walls, and for light product that is fine. Once you load a tray with jars, cans or anything with real weight, those walls start bowing outward and the whole unit looks tired within a day. Doubling them solves it. We produce a lot of double wall display lid work at ZEE Packaging and heavy product ranges are where it belongs.
Two Layers Where It Matters
A double wall display lid folds the board back on itself.
- Each wall is two layers rather than one
- The tray holds its shape under a full load
- Rims stay crisp instead of softening with handling
- Corners resist crushing during transit and stacking
- It supports considerably more weight than a single wall
- The doubled edge looks finished from every angle
Most operators choosing a double wall display lid do so after watching a single wall tray sag on a shelf.
Heavy Product Needs It
There is a clear point where this becomes necessary.
- Glass jars and bottles, which concentrate weight
- Canned goods and tinned products
- Multipacks and bundled items
- Anything stacked two units high on a shelf
- Long campaign runs where a unit stays out for weeks
- Not needed for lightweight sachets or cards
- Tray with a removable double wall display lid the standard build
- Tear away lid version perforated for a clean opening
- Hinged lid format folding back rather than detaching
- Front cut down tray with doubled walls at the sides
- With a header card branding above the unit
- Divided version compartments for several SKUs
Sizes We Print Regular
Every double wall display lid is built to your product, though these run often:
- 10" x 8" x 5" for a standard counter unit
- 12" x 9" x 6" for a larger display
- 14" x 10" x 6" for a heavier range
- 8" x 6" x 4" for a compact unit
- 16" x 12" x 6" for a bulk display
- 18" x 12" x 8" for a floor level tray
Send us the loaded weight, since the whole reason for this construction is the load it carries.
Board And Print
- B flute corrugated as the baseline for the doubled walls
- C flute where more cushioning is needed
- True double wall board for genuinely heavy freight
- Litho laminated corrugated for full color retail print
- Kraft corrugated for a plain economical build
- Reinforced front lip on any cut down format
Worth being clear on terminology. A double wall display lid folds the board twice, whereas double wall board is a different material with two flutes. We would confirm which you need.
Materials Worth Considering
- Recycled corrugated, standard across these grades
- FSC certified board, certificate available on request
- Soy based ink through the whole run
- More board used, though the unit lasts a longer campaign
- No lamination, so it recycles at end of life
- Right sizing so you ship product rather than air

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it the same as double wall board?
No, and the terms get confused. This folds the board twice, whereas double wall board has two flutes in the material itself.
How much stronger is it?
Noticeably on wall rigidity. A single wall tray bows outward under weight, whereas the doubled version holds square.
How much is a double wall display lid?
Rough estimate is $0.85 to $2.10 per unit in plain corrugated, $1.40 to $3.20 with print and $2.20 to $4.80 for litho laminated at moderate quantity. Size moves it. Shipping is included in our price. This is estimate only, so ask our team for a exact quote.
Does it use much more board?
Yes, since each wall is two layers. That is the trade off against a unit that lasts the whole campaign.
When is it unnecessary?
For light product like sachets or cards. Single wall handles those perfectly well at a lower cost.
Does it assemble slowly?
Slightly, since there are more folds. It is still quick once staff have built a few.
Can it ship pre filled?
Yes, with a tear away lid. That saves store labor and guarantees the layout on arrival.
