The tray-style structure represents a common tray-based design, serving as a representative configuration among shallow tray and pallet-style display racks. It typically functions as a shelf for storing merchandise (or cargo bins).


The larger pallet-style structure can be seen in the far left configuration of the floor display rack diagram.

Commonly found in large retail stores, it employs a large-sized box-shaped structure with side windows, built by stacking bottom pallets. This allows for the storage of numerous products awaiting sale, achieving the dual purpose of transportation and sales.

Pallet-Style Structure


The middle structure in the floor display unit can also be classified as pallet-style, though smaller in scale than the previous example. It nonetheless holds considerable product volume, resembling a compact cargo bin. This uniform-sized structure can be nested vertically to form a complete floor display system.

Shallow Tray Structure


Additionally, the shallow tray structure is featured in the rightmost unit of the floor display rack and the rightmost unit of the tabletop display.
