A counter display is a paperboard box that stands by the till or on a shelf so small goods sell themselves: a low front, sloping sides and a tall back as the header; as a crash-lock tube that erects in a second, a tear-away shelf-ready box, a deck with holes, steps, or a tray raised on a column.

The sample is duplex (grey back) 300 gsm with matte lamination, on a dieline drawn at the size you type.
A counter display is an open tray whose back panel rises into a header, with a low or angled front so shoppers can see and take product. Most are die-cut from one sheet with a crash-lock or 1-2-3 snap-lock bottom for fast set-up, and the header is usually folded double for stiffness. Many ship as a closed carton with a perforated tear-away that turns it into a tray, or add steps, dividers and stands.
Ivory or duplex of 300–350 gsm for light goods: candy, lipstick, coffee sachets, spice packets. Floor stands, multi-step risers, large trays or heavy goods use offset sheets laminated to E or B flute so they don't sag after weeks on a counter. Loose food such as fruit or nuts needs a food-contact bag or liner.
Matt or gloss lamination survives handling and wiping; spot UV or foil on the header logo. Headers can be die-cut to the product's silhouette, with a PET window in the front and perforations for the tear-off. Fluted board isn't laminated after mounting, so laminate the printed sheet before it goes onto the flute.
Header, inner back wall and front are the three faces shoppers see; the tray floor appears as stock sells, so give it a logo or message. Visible inner faces must be printed on the reverse of the sheet (two-sided) or designed so the double fold turns them outward. Mark perforations and creases clearly, add 3 mm bleed and keep text 3 mm clear of creases.
It ships closed like a small case; in store, staff tear the perforated upper front away to leave an open tray, and the lid folds up as a header. One box both ships and displays.
It must look right in both states: closed as a case with the product name, open as tray and header. Keep barcodes and batch codes off the part that gets torn away.
Mostly not: a crash-lock base is pre-glued at the factory and pops into shape; a 1-2-3 bottom tucks by hand. Headers and double walls lock with tabs.
Ivory when a white interior shows and goods are light; duplex to save cost when the inside is printed; E/B flute for floor stands, risers and heavy goods that must stand for weeks.
Tear-away styles are designed to ship closed and display open. Open trays need a corrugated outer for delivery, then go onto the counter as they are.
