Our Philosophy

For over a decade the Kaston Group has helped retail stores, specialty boutiques, and product developers create functional fixtures and merchandising displays.

We design and manufacture merchandising elements and fixtures that feature the customer’s products and services in a functional and unique setting while maintaining brand equity.  Our talented team can help you plan and strategize unique fixtures and displays that feature products to attract and motivate buyers to purchase.

  1. Connect with our customers.
    We get to know you and your company. We make it our goal to understand your unique processes and incorporate those into our processes. We make it easy to work together.
  2. Don’t risk quality over speed.
    We go the extra mile to meet your timelines, but we can’t or won’t risk our reputation producing a product that doesn’t meet our standards or your standards.
  3. Be inventive when it’s necessary.
    We have good ideas. You have good ideas. Our job is to make sure that your design aesthetic is produced to function properly and within budget. If not we’ll reinvent it for you.
  4. Make good business sense.
    We want to provide the best outcome possible. In today’s constantly evolving marketplace, we keep a watchful eye to find new materials and strive to value engineer better ways to manufacture and distribute your products.
