Hangers are one of the indispensable household items in our lives. Solid wood hangers and plastic hangers are common on the market, and their functions and shapes are similar to some extent. Now, I’d like to tell you is the difference between plastic hangers and solid wood hangers. Although they are similar, there are some essential differences.

1. The difference of raw materials

There are varieties of raw materials for solid wood hangers, but the requirements are high, and there are many factors that affect the quality of wood. Therefore, longer preparation and processing time are required. Although there are few types of raw materials, plastic hangers have a wide range of sources, which are renewable resources and are easy to obtain.

2. Price difference

The final price of solid wood hangers is high due to high quality, high price of raw materials, multiple production links, complex processes and high labor costs, while plastic hangers have low labor costs and relatively simple production processes, so the price is low.

3. The difference in service life

Solid wood hangers have a longer service life, but it depends on the environment and materials. Even the best wooden hangers are not suitable for drying racks, because this will shorten the service life of wooden hangers. The service life of plastic hangers is short, because plastic hangers will wear out during use, and there are many factors that affect their service life.

4. The difference between image patterns

The image of solid wood hangers is generally better than that of plastic hangers, and it is more natural and elegant, but the shape and style effects of wooden hangers have not changed much. Plastic hangers can have a variety of styles, shapes and colors. In addition, they can also achieve the wood grain effect of high imitation wooden hangers, and plastic hangers can also achieve high-end appearances.

5. Difference in scope of application

Solid wood hangers are mainly used in high-end stores and places such as brand clothing stores and high-end hotels. Plastic hangers can be used in all occasions to meet high-end and special needs.

6. Difference in weight characteristics

The solid wood clothes hanger itself is heavier but has good load-bearing ability, and it will be cumbersome to carry frequently and inconvenient to use. Plastic clothes hangers are versatile and light in weight. Considering the load-bearing capacity, the plastic wide hangers used for heavy clothes are scientifically designed, and their load-bearing capacity can fully meet daily needs.

7. The difference in environmental protection

The public generally believes that wooden hangers are more environmentally friendly, but in fact it may be at the cost of destroying the forest. There is basically no recycling value, but it can be returned to nature through burning or natural degradation. Plastic hangers, a brand-new material, are very friendly to people, but plastic hangers that are difficult to degrade are either recycled or burned directly.
