Ditto PET Clothing Hangers

Lead Designers
Entry Description

Ditto plastic hangers are made of 100% polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is the plastic commonly used to produce water bottles. The innovative design features a single material construction, eliminating wire hooks and other materials that typically make recycling hangers prohibitive. PET is the most highly recycled of all plastics and is easily processed by end-users, recyclers and intermediaries.

GreenHeart Global Corporation conceives, designs, manufactures, and markets products to meet the growing demand for goods that are less harmful to the environment.

Our highly-designed products incorporate recycled, recyclable, rapidly renewable and/or bio-based materials, and replace toxic and non-sustainable materials with organic or natural alternatives, including inks, dyes, and adhesives.
