POSM Printing FAQ

What is POSM printing?

POSM printing means printed point-of-sales materials used at shelves, counters, booths and retail spaces to make a product or promotion more visible.

What POSM should I use for supermarket shelves?

For supermarket shelves, you can consider shelf talkers, wobblers or small product display materials. These help highlight promotions, new products, price offers or QR code campaigns.

What POSM should I use for a roadshow?

For roadshows, common items include event backdrops, standees, counter displays, sampling trays, flyers and event boards. The right choice depends on booth size and campaign type.

Do I need to print every POSM item?

No. Start with the item that matches your display location. For example, use a shelf talker for shelf display, a counter top display for table display, or a backdrop for roadshow setup.

Send your product type, display location, estimated size, quantity, artwork file, reference photo and deadline. If you are unsure, send a product photo and display area photo for advice.
