Arch & Hook produces hangers out of ocean-bound waste

Arch & Hook is helping fashion and retail brands reach their sustainability goals by producing hangers, furniture, and fixtures out of sustainable materials. BLUEWAVE® is Arch & Hook’s own thermoplastic material made from 100% recycled ocean-bound plastic, marine plastic, and post-consumer plastic, collected predominantly from four of the most polluted rivers in the world. It gives new life to plastic waste that would otherwise end up in our oceans.

The combination of materials collected from coastal areas and riverbanks, is sorted and separated, shredded, transported, and prepared as raw material to make modular design hangers that feature notches and add-on bars and clips so it can be used for any garment, in any combination.

From sportswear, department stores, high-end fashion, and the hospitality industry, to name a few, Arch & Hook is thrilled to have supported hundreds of companies around the globe to advance their sustainability goals. Their impressive client portfolio is continuously growing, as more and more fashion and retail brands set their sustainability goals around eliminating single-use fossil-fuel-based virgin plastic.
