Plastic Hanger Pollution Can Be Phased Out with Solinatra

Small but impactful, plastic hangers have long significantly contributed to the fashion industry's environmental footprint. As retailers and brands strive to enhance sustainability, Solinatra offers an innovative solution: #ReplacingPlastic. Our eco-friendly hangers provide a refined alternative, perfectly aligned with the industry’s commitment to reducing waste and fostering a more sustainable supply chain without compromising on functionality or quality.

A Global Opportunity for Change

Every year, billions of plastic hangers are produced, used, and discarded, significantly contributing to environmental degradation. The retail fashion sector alone accounts for 85% of all plastic hangers produced, many of which are non-recyclable. Most of these hangers end up in landfills or are incinerated, releasing harmful pollutants into the environment, while others find their way into our oceans and waterways, exacerbating marine pollution.

But here’s the opportunity: the scale of the problem presents a unique chance for the fashion industry to lead the charge in sustainability.

 

Solinatra #MakesItEasy to seize this opportunity.

With the same quality as traditional hangers, hangers made of Solinatra bio-resins are the seamless solution for brands and retailers looking to make a positive change. Here's why:

100% Natural

Solinatra is made from 100% natural, plant-based materials, eliminating the need for petroleum-based plastics. This reduces greenhouse gas emissions during production and minimises reliance on finite fossil fuels.

Compostable and Biodegradable

Unlike conventional plastics, Solinatra hangers decompose naturally, returning to the earth as nutrient-rich compost, thereby eliminating the risk of polluting oceans, landfills, or waterways.

Durable and Practical

Products made from Solinatra bio-resins offer the same durability and functionality as traditional plastic hangers, making them ideal for retail and logistics without compromising performance.

Contributing to a Circular Economy

Utilising Solinatra bio-resins promotes a circular economy, in which products are crafted for responsible disposal. This transition aligns with the increasing consumer demand for environmentally sustainable practices.

 

Transitioning to sustainable alternatives is not just about doing what’s right for the planet, it also makes good business sense. PwC’s 2024 Voice of the Consumer survey reveals that 80% of consumers are willing to pay more for sustainably produced or sourced goods. Retailers who embrace alternatives like Solinatra can strengthen their reputation, attract eco-conscious shoppers, and stay ahead of tightening environmental regulations.

By steering clear of single-use plastic hangers and adopting sustainable materials, the fashion industry can spearhead efforts to diminish plastic pollution. Together, we can forge a healthier planet for future generations.
