Product Wall is latest innovation to be unveiled by Leach

Creative graphic display specialist Leach has unveiled a number of innovations for 2017.

Perhaps the most notable is the Product Wall – a merchandise display system which integrates illuminated graphics to maximise use of floor space. The result is an atmospheric ‘exhibition’ of hero products which increases brand awareness and captures customer attention.

Created with flexibility in mind, the Product Walls are designed so that in-store managers and merchandisers can update the look and feel of their displays without fuss. Extra floating shelves or hooks can be added or removed with ease, with all fixings neatly concealed behind the interchangeable graphic.

Manufactured in any size up to 15m x 5m, Product Wall Lite has been created using a discreet magnetic-based display system, to allow maximum flexibility for lightweight merchandise such as shoes, jewellery and electronics. The heavy-duty Product Wall Max on the other hand, combines slotted rails with high quality, illuminated graphics, to create an exclusive merchandise display wall, perfect for large fashion items such as clothing.


Designed primarily for retail environments, the Product Wall system is also expected to prove popular in the exhibition and trade show market. Managing director Richard Leach explains: “We wanted to create an impactful way to display merchandise and engage consumers. The Product Wall will therefore satisfy a number of challenges for retail brands who want to attract customers into their store or showroom, and keep them there! But because it is so eye-catching, it will capture attention in busy exhibition halls too. It is a really effective way to present products that have the potential to steal the show!”

The Product Wall system was one of many innovations revealed at a VIP showcase event at Leach’s Yorkshire headquarters. Visitors also learned about a new ultra-slim lightbox, as well as one made from easy-clean acrylic for an extra glossy look – perfect for the jewellery and cosmetics industries.

Numerous illuminated and non-illuminated Vision 3D products were highlighted too, including column solutions, a circular hanging canopy and a concave corner display, all designed to make striking use of underutilised space. There was even the chance for a first-look at an upcoming innovation – a Dynamic Lightbox that gives the illusion of movement throughout the graphic.

Commenting on the showcase, Richard concludes: “This was the latest in a series of events to mark our company’s 125th milestone year. It was a great opportunity for customers to meet the people who design and engineer our products, before seeing them come to life. We walked everyone through the different in-house departments within our business, including our production facility, to show them exactly how we work. And we concluded the day with an interactive forum which sparked a wealth of new ideas for us to explore over the next 12 months!”

With a 6-strong team dedicated to product innovation, Leach invests £250,000 in the research and development of new graphic display solutions, every year.
