About Shelf Ready Packaging
Shelf ready packaging (SRP) is the bridge between your distribution centre and the shop floor — retail-ready trays, shippers, and display cases that arrive store-ready and go straight onto shelves without additional handling. For retailers, SRP reduces labour costs and speeds up shelf replenishment. For brands, it's a chance to own the shelf with packaging that doubles as a display.
CleverPak's network builds shelf-ready packaging for FMCG brands, importers, distributors, and retailers across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and internationally. Our facilities handle tray assembly, product loading, configuration to planogram specifications, shrink-wrapping, compliance labelling, and palletisation to meet retailer DC requirements. Whether you need 500 shelf-ready trays for a regional promotion or 20,000 for a national rollout, our network matches your project to the right facilities for capacity and turnaround.
Every SRP project runs through CleverPak Connect with detailed build specifications, retailer compliance checklists, and quality tracking. Our teams understand that shelf-ready packaging must meet exacting standards — the right tray dimensions, correct product orientation, accurate labelling, and clean presentation — because a rejected pallet at the DC means lost sales and wasted costs.
Our network delivers 200,000+ shelf-ready display units annually, with individual projects typically ranging from 500 to 1,000 units. Whether it's a regional promotion or a national rollout, our facilities handle the full workflow from tray assembly to palletised dispatch.

Common questions about shelf ready packaging.
What is shelf ready packaging?
Shelf ready packaging (SRP) is packaging designed to go directly from the distribution centre onto retail shelves without needing to be unpacked or rearranged. It typically includes retail-ready trays, display shippers, and cases with perforated or tear-away fronts that double as shelf displays.
What retailer requirements can CleverPak meet for SRP?
Our teams work to the specifications of major retailers globally. Each retailer has specific requirements for tray dimensions, barcode placement, date coding, pallet configurations, and presentation standards. We build to your retailer's exact compliance checklist.
Can you handle both the packing and the SRP assembly?
Yes. Many SRP projects involve both product packing (into individual retail units) and tray/shipper assembly. Our facilities handle the complete workflow — from individual product packing through to loaded, shrink-wrapped, palletised shelf-ready units.
What volumes of shelf ready packaging can you produce?
From small promotional runs of a few hundred trays to national rollouts of 20,000+ units. Our network of 100+ facilities means we can allocate capacity across multiple sites to meet tight campaign deadlines without compromising quality.
How do you ensure SRP meets DC acceptance standards?
Every project includes detailed retailer compliance checklists, sample approval before production, and quality checkpoints throughout assembly. We verify tray dimensions, product orientation, labelling accuracy, and pallet configuration against retailer specifications before dispatch.
