In the past, 3D models were typically created using traditional subtractive manufacturing methods such as CNC machining or foam sculpting. These models were widely used to produce point-of-sale (POP) displays and window installations that helped retailers attract foot traffic.
Today, KINGS FGF and SLA large-format 3D printing technologies provide a revolutionary solution for producing 3D exhibits. They offer faster production speed, full customization, and greater creative freedom.
Typical retail applications include:
- In-store Displays
Creating large-scale, customized, and visually striking marketing props and experiential installations.
- Visual Merchandising
Producing customizable mannequins, store display shelves, and branded props.
- Custom Furniture and Décor
Creating unique large-scale design elements for store interiors and layouts.
- Rapid Prototyping
Accelerating the design iteration process for retail environments and product concepts.
Large-format 3D printing enables retailers to transform creative ideas into reality, and companies worldwide are already using this technology to enhance brand visibility and increase profitability.
A recent example comes from 3D HUB FERBA, KINGS' agent in Italy.

From March 6th to March 8th, four neoclassical statues representing IKEA employees were installed on the balcony of the Carlo Felice Hotel, facing Piazza Gené. All statues look toward the new IKEA store and are accompanied by a satirical message dedicated to the monarch:
"Hey Carlo Felice, look, IKEA is over here."

These statues were produced using KINGS large-format SLA and FGF 3D printing technologies, demonstrating how additive manufacturing can support creative retail campaigns and large-scale promotional installations.

The KINGS FGF1800Pro pellet 3D printer and SLA1000Pro printer are among the most popular large-format solutions for producing retail display props and large-scale installations.
By combining efficiency, flexibility, and creative freedom, KINGS 3D printers are helping bring new vitality to the retail display and visual merchandising industry.
