Hangers in Your Retail Store Matter

The type of clothing hangers you use can help set the aesthetic for your business while also influencing your customer’s perception of your brand.  If you are running a fashion retail or home business, the type of hangers you use to display your products can end up being a crucial decision. There are many types of hangers that can be used for a variety of clothing items and picking the right one for your business needs can be a difficult one. Below are some options to help you decide which ones are best for you and your business.

Plastic Hangers 

One of the most common hangers used in retail stores today are plastic hangers. They are a less expensive option than others. Plastic hangers come in many varieties and styles for you to choose from that will best show off your product. The plastic hangers we offer range from Medium to Super Heavy Duty for different strengths to hold the type of material you want to be able to hang. Most top hangers come with top notches to hold garment straps, while suit hangers are great to use for children, junior, and/or senior sizes to ensure they hold their form. Whatever your need, the plastic hanger selection offers an inexpensive solution to get you up and running.

Wooden Hangers

Wooden Hangers are much sturdier than most other hangers. They are more durable so they will not bend, which in turn will keep your product’s structure intact better. They help prevent stretching which also helps your clothing last longer and look better while hanging for your customers to examine. Wooden hangers are also known for evoking the feelings of comfort, warmth and high-quality. That can go a long way to enhancing your business aesthetic as well. These are great to use for heavier clothing items like big rain and snow coats as well. The Contoured Suit Hangers help keep suits structure in shape while hanging so that you do not have to worry about them becoming wrinkled or creased while hanging.

Metal Hangers

Another affordable but more durable option is Metal Hangers. Many businesses go the metal hanger route for their easy storage and long-life span. They also offer an option that both plastic and wooden do not. The metal hangers have an option of a metal security hanger that will help reduce the loss in lodging environments, like hotels, where hangers can be more vulnerable to theft.

Specialty Hangers

There are also specialty hangers that you can use to help show off your items that do not need full-size hangers. These can help with items like scarves, neck ties, socks, and other smaller sized items. These come in plastic, metal, wood and satin finishes so you can match your hangers to all be similar.

Understanding all your hanger options can prove to be a crucial decision for your business. The more inexpensive plastic hangers can allow you to get your items hanging up fast but may not be the best long-term option for the aesthetic you are trying to create. You can then look at metal and wooden hangers to enhance your products. Whatever you decide is best for your business, check out American Retail Supply’s selection of hangers.
