When walking around your house or a clothing store, hangers may be one of the last household items you notice or even think about regularly, but should we be paying greater attention to these ordinary household items? In 2006, Gary Barker and Larry Chernicoff, both industrial designers, decided to do just that. Forming a company called GreenHeart Global, a green product design company, Barker and Chernicoff began redesigning everyday products to be closed-loop, made from recycled materials, and able to be recycled at the end of their life, starting with the hanger. Although Barker was originally hesitant on the idea, even thinking to himself, “Who wants to design a hanger?”, after researching the life cycle and grave impact traditional hangers have on the environment, Barker was sold on the idea and a week later they had their first paper hanger prototype.
Since that prototype, the paperhanger has evolved into Ditto Hangers, influential enough for Barker to expand to other retail display items, leading to the creation of a new company, Ditto Sustainable Brand Solutions (SBS). Ditto Hangers are now being used in large retail stores all over the world, including Macy’s, Disney, and Nike.
