Expanding Our Acrylic Display Range: How We Overcome Vulnerability through Innovation
06 January 2026
In modern retail, display systems are not just fixed devices, they are the backbone of product visibility, organization, and customer experience. But like any investment, shelf management systems, pushers, dividers, and display accessories require proper care to provide long-term value.
At ORIO, we believe that sustainability is not limited to production, but also runs through the entire process of product use. That's why we encourage retailers to implement intelligent maintenance practices to:
Extend the service life of the display system
● Reduce operational downtime
● Reduce replacement and maintenance costs
Supporting sustainable development by minimizing waste to the greatest extent possible
In this article, we will share practical tips on how to care for shelf display systems and ensure their durability in various retail environments.
1. Regularly clean and maintain the smooth operation of the system
Over time, dust, spills, and product residues can affect the functionality of push rods, rails, and separators. Here is how to maintain cleanliness:
Use a soft cloth and mild detergent to regularly wipe plastic and metal parts.
Avoid using irritating chemicals such as bleach or acetone, as they can damage the plastic surface or coating.
Clean the push rod track every month to prevent the accumulation of debris that may affect movement.
A clean display system not only looks better, but also has higher performance.
2. Arrange routine inspections
Regular inspections can help detect early signs of wear and tear. We suggest checking:
Spring and push rod mechanism - ensure they can move freely without bending or wear.
Tape or clips - confirm that they are firmly attached together and have not deteriorated.
Metal hooks or tracks - look for signs of rust or looseness, especially in high humidity stores.
Timely resolution of minor issues can prevent larger and more expensive failures from occurring.
3. Provide correct usage training for store employees
Retail employees interact with display systems every day, so it is crucial to provide them with proper training on how to use them:
● Avoid overloading pallets or carts.
Do not force or bend components when restocking.
Teach how to gently reposition the divider or label holder without causing damage.
Proper handling can reduce accidental damage and ensure smoother operation of the entire store.
4. Rotate and reuse components as much as possible
One of the sustainability advantages of modular shelving systems is their re-usability. To maximize this:
Reconfigure parts based on seasonal or category changes, rather than replacing the entire set of parts.
Reusing dividers and push rods in the new layout - Hooke's system aims to achieve flexible repositioning.
Correctly label and store unused parts for future use.
This reduces material waste and supports a circular approach to retail fixture management.
5. Only replace what is needed
When maintenance is needed, replacing individual components instead of the entire system can significantly reduce costs and waste:
Our push rod system is manufactured with interchangeable parts, allowing retailers to replace only damaged components.
We also provide easy to install spare parts, minimizing the need for external technicians.
This approach is consistent with retailers' increasing focus on sustainability and cost-effectiveness.
6. Store spare parts under ideal conditions
If you store backup components in a warehouse or storage room:
Place them in a dry and cool environment to prevent material degradation.
Use protective packaging to avoid dust and scratches.
Clearly label components to avoid confusion during future installation processes.
Good storage practices can ensure that parts remain in good condition and can be quickly deployed.
Final idea: Maintaining as a sustainable development strategy
A well maintained shelf display system can last for many years - saving money, reducing environmental impact, and supporting smoother store operations.
