Hangers made from wheat waste and recycled plastic

These hangers are made from wheat waste, combined with recycled plastic. The use of wheat straw makes these hangers fully recyclable and significantly more eco-friendly than traditional plastic hangers. Depending on the design, each hanger contains a mix of 20 to 40% plastic and 60 to 80% wheat straw. This means that less plastic is needed to achieve the same strength and volume – fantastic, right?


What really sets these hangers apart is their modern and natural look. The color of the hangers can vary from a light speckled to a slightly brushed quality, giving them an elegant and trendy appearance that fits any interior.

Endless color possibilities

A fun fact: all RAL and Pantone colors are possible! If you want a unique hanger for your store layout, Best Mannequins is the place to be. Your chosen RAL or Pantone color is mixed into the plastic prior to production. The darker the color you choose, the more pronounced the brushed effect, but the less you see the wheat straw speckles. Opt for a lighter color, and you'll get a beautiful and trendy speckled effect from the wheat straw.

A hanger that meets your needs

Our wheat straw hangers are available in virtually all models to meet your needs! Think top hangers, coat hangers, pant hangers, accessory hangers, scarf hangers, hangers specifically for flip-flops – whatever you can imagine, we have the right option for you. 

At Best Mannequins, our wheat straw hangers are regularly customized to meet the specific wishes of our clients. The process starts with a personal conversation, where we discuss the functionality and desired design of the hanger over a good cup of coffee. We always consider the support colors and store concept, ensuring the hangers add value to the overall store layout.

After finalizing all details, the design is worked out in 3D. A test model is then printed with our 3D printers. After thoroughly testing and approving the 3D sample, the mold is made and we start production. Then, it's just a matter of waiting to admire the unique, stylish, and sustainable hanger in the store.

Customizable eco-friendly hangers



As the cherry on top, the wheat straw hangers are fully customizable. Want your logo, brand, or illustration on the hanger? No problem! Contact us without obligation, and we'll be happy to help you.

Significant advantages over wooden hangers


Environmental benefits:

  • Waste reduction: wheat straw is a byproduct of wheat production, using material that would otherwise be discarded.
  • Deforestation prevention: less wood is needed, allowing more trees to remain standing, benefiting biodiversity and the climate.
  • Energy efficiency: production consumes less energy, further reducing the environmental impact.


Cost benefits:

  • Lower material costs: wheat straw is typically less expensive than wood.
  • Reduced production costs: lower energy consumption translates to cost savings.


Lighter weight:

  • Easier transport and handling due to the lighter material.


Durability and reliability:

  • Strength and durability: modern production techniques ensure wheat straw hangers are as strong and durable as wooden hangers.
  • Suitable for heavy clothing: ideal for presenting heavier clothing like workwear or sportswear.

Reduce your plastic consumption by 60-80%



Why should you choose these sustainable wheat straw hangers? If you currently use 100% plastic hangers, switching to wheat straw hangers can save up to 60-80% plastic, significantly reducing your ecological footprint. Moreover, the organic look and feel of these hangers create a unique storytelling experience for your customers – a win-win! In terms of pricing, wheat straw hangers are generally 20 to 30% more expensive than fully plastic hangers but 30 to 40% cheaper than wooden hangers.

The future of our sustainable wheat straw hangers

We are currently testing various ecological versions of our environmentally friendly plastic to achieve cool finishes and effects, such as bamboo and rice husks (the leaves surrounding the rice, a natural waste product). Really something to look forward to!
