Paper Hanger

Paper Garment Hangers for Retail and Apparel Programs

A paper garment hanger is a lightweight, recyclable alternative to plastic or wood. Built from reinforced paperboard or kraft, it balances strength, generous print area, and curbside recyclability for stores, launches, and fulfillment kits.

Production Capability and Quality Control

With 20+ years of R&D, two factories, and three parallel lines, we deliver consistent paper hanger quality at scale. An in‑house lab validates materials and load capacity. Inspections cover raw fiber through finished units. Flat‑pack designs with a waterproof inner film improve container utilization. Global door‑to‑door delivery and responsive support help keep programs on schedule.

Types and Applications

Reinforced kraft designs: Multi‑ply boards with hidden reinforcement support tees, blouses, light knits, and casual jackets while staying slim and printable. For core apparel ranges, explore our Paper Clothes Hanger to align silhouettes across racks and packaging.
Scarf and accessory formats: Precision die‑cuts hold scarves and delicate pieces without snags. Smooth edges and clear print zones accommodate size, price, and branding. See our Paper Scarf Hanger for optimized accessory displays.
Size classes: Adult widths suit standard tops and outerwear. Narrower kids’ sizes support children’s collections. Accessory formats work for belts and ties. Consistent outlines keep displays unified.

Materials and Sustainability

We use recycled paperboard and kraft from renewable fibers, with optional FSC‑certified sources. Water‑based inks and varnishes support recyclability. Solvent‑free adhesives and energy‑efficient lines help reduce emissions. Mono‑material builds are widely curbside‑recyclable. Where metal hooks are specified, simple disassembly improves recovery.

Customization and Branding

Turn each hanger into a brand canvas. CMYK or Pantone printing with matte or gloss varnish delivers accurate color. Optional lamination, spot UV, emboss/deboss, and foil can elevate the look. Choose shoulder contour, strap notches, and anti‑slip strips to match garment weight and fabric. Adjust outlines and cutouts for racks and boxes. Internal ribs or laminated cores enable heavier‑duty performance without excess bulk. Add barcodes or QR codes and pair with matching tags and labels for a fully recyclable presentation.

Performance and Testing

Standard builds support lightweight tops. Reinforced cores handle heavier knits or light outerwear. In‑house methods simulate hanging weight and dwell time for reliable performance in store and in transit. Water‑resistant coatings and sealed edges help in humid stockrooms or dry‑cleaning workflows. FSC and coating/ink documentation are available on request.

Specifications and Logistics

Dimensions and thickness: Typical widths—kids 280–320 mm; adult 380–430 mm. Thickness is about 2.0–4.0 mm depending on ply and lamination. Shoulder contour and notch depth follow garment type.
Packaging and transport: Flat‑pack units maximize container loading and reduce sea‑freight cost per unit. Each carton includes a moisture‑barrier film and high‑strength corrugated walls to prevent scuffing and damage.
Lead time and capacity: Parallel lines and a monthly output exceeding one million units support stable timelines and rapid changeovers.

How to Choose

By garment weight and width: Use standard boards for tees and blouses. Choose reinforced kraft builds and broader shoulders for heavier pieces.
By environment and handling: For humid storage or transport, specify water‑resistant coatings and sealed edges. For high‑touch retail, select scuff‑resistant surfaces.
By branding needs: Large logo areas, Pantone‑matched colors, and premium finishes make custom printed hangers part of your visual identity.
