According to customer Kevin Burley from Derian House Children's Hospice, "Everything arrived well packaged and in perfect condition." This durability ensures that your investment will last, maintaining its sleek appearance for years.

Clarity

One of the standout features of Perspex is its crystal-clear transparency. This clarity helps to showcase your items without any distracting color tints. Whether you're displaying fine jewelry, electronics, or decorative items, the clear nature of Perspex risers ensures that the focus remains on your products. This can be especially beneficial in retail settings, where clear displays can enhance the visual appeal of your merchandise.

This versatility makes them perfect for various settings, including retail stores, trade shows, galleries, and even home decor. You can easily mix and match different types of risers to create a unique and eye-catching display.

Easy Maintenance

Maintaining Perspex shelf risers is a breeze. They are resistant to most chemicals and can be cleaned with a simple solution of mild soap and water. Additionally, their smooth surface makes it easy to wipe away dust and fingerprints, keeping your displays looking pristine. For those who prefer a more polished look, specialized acrylic cleaners can be used to maintain the shine and clarity of the risers.

Installing Perspex shelf risers is straightforward. Follow these tips for a hassle-free setup:

1. Clean the Surface: Wipe the shelf clean to remove dust and debris. This ensures the risers stay in place.
2. Position the Risers: Place the risers on the shelf according to your layout plan. Start with larger risers at the back and smaller ones at the front.
3. Secure If Needed: For added stability, you can use non-slip pads or adhesive strips. This is especially useful in high-traffic areas like retail stores.

Safety Precautions

While installing Perspex shelf risers, keep these safety precautions in mind:
