Creating flexible product display soluitons for Sika

Merit Display was tasked with designing a range of high-impact displays that would showcase Sika products effectively in stores. The displays needed to be lightweight, durable, easy to transport, and flexible enough to accommodate various products. After an initial meeting, the Merit team proposed several display concepts that aligned with Sika’s vision, and the project quickly moved forward.

Project brief

Sika chose two display models: a countertop unit for Sika adhesive tubes and a larger floor display that could adapt to a range of product sizes. A key priority was getting the colour right, particularly Sika’s signature yellow. After thorough substrate testing, our team perfected the colour and moved to prototyping.

The project followed a proven design process: concept development, prototyping, and production. Once the displays were finalized, they were delivered directly to Sika’s headquarters in Leeds, ensuring a smooth process from start to finish.

    3D visualisation

    Detailed 3D renders brought the proposed displays to life, giving Sika a clear view of the finished designs and how the signature yellow would perform in different environments.

    Sustainable materials

    Merflex material was selected for both displays, providing a lightweight, durable and 80% recycled solution while supporting Sika’s sustainability objectives.

    Practical, scalable design

    The displays were designed to work across different builders’ merchant environments, with adaptable configurations that are easy to transport, install and reposition.

    Sustainable merchandising

    Using recyclable materials throughout created a more environmentally conscious display solution without compromising on visual impact, durability or practical performance.
