Slat wall display fixtures
The most versatile presentation
system on the market today is considered to be slat wall by most
retailers and visual merchandisers. Slat wall has the capability to
effectively present almost any product line when it is used in
conjunction with Lucite or metal accessories. Whether you need to
display apparel, gifts, books, jewelry, house wares or any other item,
stat wall fixtures can work for you.
If
is often suggested that retailers use a combination of slat wall panels
and recessed standards to create an interesting wall display
presentation. It is best to use slat wall in small doses. It is also a
good idea to use vertical wall dividers to break up the slat wall
displays into more manageable “stories.” You will find it is much easier
to arrange items on a 48-inch wide section of slat wall than on a wall
of slats that is 40 feet long.
If you operate a retail outlet that sees a lot of traffic, you should
consider adding metal inserts into the grooves of you slat walls, These
inserts will both extend the life of your slat wall and will provide a
reflective quality that highlights your merchandise.
The choice of color in your store is important. Some designers recommend
using both dark floors and dark ceilings and using a neutral wall color
so that your products are “bracketed” between the floor and the ceiling.
If your merchandise is dark you
should consider using a light finish. Your prospective customers will be
attracted to the contrast.
