News in the @MailOnline highlights the environmental damage caused by plastic hangers; a wake-up call to see this plastic waste is as harmful as bags, straws and bottles.
Take responsibility and encourage retailers to re-use more hangers. https://t.co/7MKJ4uePuu
A very exciting time as Samuel Grant Packaging, in conjunction with Braiform, have made the shortlist in the Supply Chain Excellence Awards for Environmental Improvement amongst some blue chip giants!

Fashion contributes to the plastic nightmare too; the industry uses 15 billion plastic hangers every year. All is not lost, Braiform is the hidden hero eliminating single-use hangers. We re-use over 1 billion plastic hangers every year #OurPlasticFeedback
@HughFW@BBCOne Braiform is the hidden hero in the #WarOnPlastic against single-use plastic garment hangers. The fashion industry uses 15 billion hangers every year. We re-use over 1 billion hangers every year, keeping them out landfill and reducing the manufacture pollution #OurPlasticFeedback
So interesting to meet the team @braiform - did u know: are 15 billion hangers in world? and Braiform reuse over 1 billion of them. Are you reusing yours? @commonwealthsec
It's a myth that recycling is more sustainable than re-use. This compelling article from @friends_earth puts one of the failures of recycling into perspective. Stories like this keep us focused on our mission: To re-use as many plastic products as possible

At Braiform, we consider waste as a design flaw. By using new materials and technologies, we aim to make products that don't create waste and pollution. Our circular design process ensures we can keep our products in use with minimum environmental impact.
Last week we attended the @CphFashSummit which highlighted the need for more industry collaboration. As a tier 4 supplier, we’ve been operating a circular model for over ten years and working with our partners to minimise the industries environmental impact #Sustainability

.@IvanCNN We read your article on China's recycling ban. It's a common misconception that recycling is more sustainable than re-use. We work with global retailers to re-use plastic hangers, reducing carbon emissions by 79% and stopping billions of plastic items going in the trash
40% of plastic sent to recyclers ends up in the trash —https://t.co/fHqnWYira2
At Braiform, we often hear that recycling will end single-use plastics. But re-use is the best way to eliminate single-use plastics. We're changing the retail industry by re-using plastic hangers
“Americans purchase about 50 billion water bottles per year, averaging about 13 bottles per month for every person in the U.S.!" Just like bottles, #singleuse hangers create billions of #waste. Our #reuse programme has saved 1 billion+ hangers going to #landfill since 2017.
@EarthDayNetwork @GretaThunberg 👏 What an inspiration and well deserved too! We all need to work together and #ActOnClimate. Here at Braiform we care about our planet, thats why our re-use programme has saved over 1 billion hangers going to landfill since 2017.
.@radhikasanghani We read your article on @StaceyDooley and the environmental impact of clothing. We work with the world’s largest retailers to reduce their environmental impact.
Our partnership with M&S is one example of how we're changing the industry: https://t.co/NdGcjaN6ZP
