Shelf Edge Label Holder

The Shelf Edge Label Holder is our solution for ‘on-shelf’ displays. This clean-lined label holder attaches to the front edge of a shelf, tidying up information and leaving the shelf clear for a multi-artifact display.

Providing visual clarity, the Shelf Edge Label Holder moves all relevant information to a single line along the front edge of a shelf. This clears any crowding or competition with the artifacts on display.

The label holder fixes with clips screwed on to the edge of the shelf (shelves of any thickness) and displays information in either a 50mm or 100mm high format that is protected with clear acrylic. 

This label holder can also be laid on its back for a subtly angled display.

Key Features of the Shelf Edge Label Holder:

• Display Information clearly and discreetly
• Will not compete with objects on display
• Perfect solution for display cases
• Simple installation
• Paper weight up to 120gsm.
• Bespoke sizes available up to 2.4m long (Cost upcharge applies), please contact us.
