Steel and wood shelves are mainly used in supermarkets to enhance the quality of product display, optimize shopping experience, and balance load-bearing and flexible display needs. They are a common choice in the core areas of supermarkets and mainstream supermarkets.
1. Fresh and Food Area: Highlighting Freshness and Texture
Fresh and food are the core areas of supermarket traffic, and steel and wood shelves can enhance the visual perception of "freshness and health" through material matching.
Fruit/vegetable area: Wooden shelves or guardrails can weaken the cold and hard feeling of metal, making the colors of fruits and vegetables more prominent. At the same time, the metal frame can support multi-layer displays and carry heavy objects such as fruit baskets and turnover boxes.
Baking/cooked food area: often combined with glass and lighting, the wooden part creates a "handmade, fresh" atmosphere, and the metal structure facilitates the installation of hooks and price tags, suitable for bulk or packaged goods such as bread and braised dishes.
Grain and oil/dry goods area: The metal frame ensures load-bearing capacity and can store heavy bagged goods such as rice and flour, while the wooden shelves make the display more organized and enhance the quality of grain and oil products.
2. Daily necessities and department store area: balancing functionality and aesthetics
The commodity categories and specifications in the daily necessities area are diverse, and steel and wood shelves can meet different display needs through flexible combinations.
Home cleaning area: The metal pillars can adjust the height of the shelves, suitable for bottled products of different heights such as laundry detergent and cleaning agents. The wooden shelves avoid the reflection of light from the metal shelves, which affects the recognition of the products.
Personal care area: It is often used to display skin care products and toiletries. Wooden elements can enhance the warmth of the area, and metal hooks can display small items such as facial mask and toothbrushes, increasing the display density.
Small appliances area: The metal frame can support heavy goods such as electric kettles and rice cookers, while the wooden shelves or countertops make the display more upscale, avoiding scratches caused by direct contact between small appliances and metal.
3. Snack and beverage area: optimize pick-up and turnover
The turnover rate of snacks and beverages is high, and the structural design of steel and wood shelves can improve customer convenience and replenishment efficiency.
Puffed Food/Biscuit Area: The multi-layer wooden layer board is designed with a tilt, making it easy for customers to see the product packaging clearly. The metal frame ensures the stability of the layer board, avoiding deformation caused by frequent retrieval.
Beverage area (non cold chain): The metal frame can withstand the weight of a whole box of beverages, and the wooden shelves separate and display bottled and canned beverages of different specifications, making the layout of the area clearer and reducing the time required for restocking.
4. Promotion and Featured Areas: Creating Visual Focus
Supermarket promotion areas or special themed areas need to quickly attract customers' attention, and the plasticity of steel and wood shelves is a key advantage.
Pile Head Promotion Area: Customizable short steel and wood shelves can be paired with wooden countertops to display promotional products. Compared to pure metal pile heads, it appears softer and enhances customers' willingness to stay.
Imported goods: By combining a dark metal frame with wooden plywood, a delicate atmosphere is created, which matches the positioning of imported snacks, daily necessities, and other products, helping to distinguish between regular areas.
