Plastic and Metal Fabrication Capabilities for Retail Displays

Custom retail displays with rugged metal supports and vivid plastic forms catch customers’ attention better than plain end caps and paper signage. Aubright provides full-service plastic and metal fabrication services that make it more efficient to design and set up profitable displays across multiple retail locations. Since 1983, we’ve been partnering with businesses to form unique components, products, display hardware, and more.

Our plastic fabrication services include:

  • CNC Routing

    CNC routing. We cut plastic forms to exact shapes including complex or intricate details. This process supports speedy production of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of displays that are uniform and consistent with design specifications.

  • Drape Forming

    Drape forming. This process is used to make curved or bent plastic components for standout display elements and decorative additions.

  • Screen Printing at a Fast Pace

    Screen printing at a fast pace. We can screen print plastic display parts with branding, messaging, and vibrant images with accurate and attention-grabbing color and crisp visuals.

  • Vacuum Forming

    Vacuum forming. We fabricate displays with interlocking plastic parts, accurate inside dimensions that click into place or align with fasteners, and no downstream modifications necessary.

Our company also provides custom metal fabrication services through our sister company Northern Metal Products, including display hardware and ruggedized displays that are subject to heavy use and long retail seasons. These capabilities include:

  • Metal bending. We can produce shelving brackets, hooks, shelves, and stand-alone display framing for POP displays, aisle displays, end caps, and more.
  • Sheet metal cutting, bending, and stamping. We can shape sheet metal into unique two-dimensional and three-dimensional forms quickly and with minimal variation.
  • Resistance and MIG Welding. Welding creates strong, reliable three-dimensional forms that resist breakage and wear.

Materials Used for POP and Retail Displays

  • Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG): Commonly used in retail displays, PETG offers flexibility, high clarity, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Polystyrene (Styrene): Lightweight, flexible, durable, and cost-effective, styrene’s smooth surface is ideal for screen printing logos and graphics on retail display signage.
