Custom Easel Display Stand
Renting a rigid display stand for a two week promotion never made much sense. You pay for something permanent to run a temporary message, then store it afterward. A folded board easel does the same job, costs a fraction as much, and recycles when the campaign ends. We produce a lot of easel display stand work at ZEE Packaging and short campaigns are exactly where it fits.
Temporary By Design
An easel display stand suits a campaign rather than a fixture.
- Built for weeks rather than years of service
- Costs a small fraction of a rigid or metal stand
- Ships flat, so distribution to many sites is cheap
- Folds out in seconds with no tools or assembly kit
- Recycles at the end rather than going into storage
- New artwork each season without buying new hardware
Most brands ordering an easel display stand do so because a permanent fixture was never justified for the run length.
Height Changes The Stability Equation
Bigger formats behave differently to counter cards.
- A taller stand needs a proportionally deeper strut
- The center of gravity rises as the panel gets larger
- Board caliper must increase with the height
- A weighted or wide foot prevents tipping
- Floor units face knocks that counter units never do
- Wind is a real factor near an entrance door
- Counter top easel the smallest easel display stand we run
- Floor standing easel for aisle ends and entrances
- Double sided version printed both faces
- Die cut shape following a product or figure outline
- With a product shelf signage plus a small tray
- With a leaflet pocket combining message and dispenser
Sizes We Print Regular
Every easel display stand is built to your campaign, though these run often:
- 8" x 10" for a counter format
- 11" x 17" for a larger counter or shelf unit
- 18" x 24" for a floor standing sign
- 24" x 36" for a large entrance display
- 12" x 18" for a mid size format
- Custom shapes cut to your outline
Board And Print
- 24pt card stock for counter formats only
- E flute corrugated for mid size stands
- B flute for floor standing units
- Double wall for very large formats
- Litho laminated corrugated for full color quality
- Matte or gloss lamination for durability
Anything above about eighteen inches needs corrugated rather than card. A large card panel curls forward within days and looks poor immediately.
Materials Worth Choosing
- Recycled corrugated, standard across these grades
- FSC certified board, certificate available on request
- Soy based ink through the whole run
- Board replacing metal and acrylic stands entirely
- No lamination, so it recycles after the campaign
- Right sizing so no board is wasted per unit
For a temporary campaign, board is genuinely the more responsible choice. A metal stand used for three weeks then stored achieves very little.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a floor unit stay upright?
With the right strut depth and board grade, yes. Near an entrance door we would advise weighting the base.
How long does one last?
Weeks rather than months. It is built for a campaign, not as a permanent fixture, and priced accordingly.
What is the price of a display easel?
Rough estimate is $0.45 to $1.20 per unit for a counter format, $1.60 to $3.60 for a mid size stand and $4.00 to $9.00 for a large floor unit at moderate quantity. Size moves it. Shipping is included in our price. This is estimate only, so ask our team for a exact quote.
Which board for a large stand?
B flute at minimum, double wall above about two feet. Card stock curls badly at any real size.
Does it ship flat?
Completely, which makes distributing to many stores cheap. It folds out in a few seconds on site.
Can it hold product too?
Yes, with a small shelf or tray added. That turns signage into a working display unit.
Can it replace an acrylic stand?
For a temporary campaign, easily. Board costs far less and does not need storing afterward.
