Frequently Asked Questions at Creative Displays Now
The primary factors influencing costs are the quantity produced and the graphics needed. To provide you with the best service, we need to have accurate quantity counts and a general understanding of the printing requirements.
In manufacturing, larger quantities often lead to cost savings. We offer various printing processes, each with different pricing, ranging from 5-color litho printing to basic 1-color PMS flexo printing.
While we don't have strict minimum order requirements, our custom-designed displays usually need to be ordered in quantities of at least 300 to 350 to justify the upfront tooling charges.
We do NOT inventory any displays. Each order requires a custom production setup and is manufactured to a custom order quantity.
We have created displays and packaging for all major retailers, ensuring that we use the latest display specifications for each store. This guarantees that your display or product packaging will comply with their standards. Feel free to review our case studies!
For unprinted displays with existing tooling, the lead time is typically 2-3 working days plus transit. If new tooling is needed, please allow 3-4 working days plus transit. Full-color displays generally require 7-9 working days plus transit. These lead times start from when Creative Displays Now receives both structural and art approvals.
Creative Displays Now prints and manufactures products using all grades of corrugated materials, as well as solid fiber, also known as "SBS" or "folding carton."
In most cases, there's no difference. "Cardboard" is a common term for what our industry refers to as corrugated material. Solid fiber materials, such as those used for cereal boxes or software boxes, are also sometimes called "cardboard." Our packaging engineers will select the appropriate materials based on your project's requirements.
We offer three in-house printing options: offset litho, flexographic, and large format digital. Each method is optimal for different quantities and graphic requirements. We'll suggest the best printing process tailored to your project's needs. Learn more about our printing options!
The available shipping methods depend on the size and quantity of your shipment. For orders that fit the size and quantity requirements, we offer UPS Parcel and FedEx Ground, which are often used for samples. For larger orders, we provide an LTL (less-than-truckload) option. Alternatively, you have the option to arrange your own carrier.
