Types of Hangers for Stores
Retail fashion solutions designed to improve product display, facilitate operations, optimise retail fixtures, and move towards more circular models.
At Erum, we develop hangers for stores and retail fashion solutions designed to accompany each garment throughout its entire journey. From in-store presentation to logistics, reuse, recovery and recirculation, each hanger can become a tool to improve efficiency, durability and impact.
Designed to hang garments functionally, organise the retail space and facilitate day-to-day operations, our solutions help each garment be presented better and circulate more efficiently.
Choosing the right hanger matters
Choosing between different types of hangers for stores means thinking about more than just the format. Each garment needs suitable support, but each retail operation also needs durable, efficient solutions designed for circularity. A good hanger improves presentation, makes in-store work easier, helps save space on the rail, and can be integrated into recovery, sorting, reuse or recycling systems.
In retail fashion, hangers are part of retail fixtures and play a direct role in how products for sale are organised, displayed and managed. That is why their design must meet both aesthetic criteria and operational needs.
Types of hangers for stores by garment
| Hanger type | Main use | Value for retail |
|---|---|---|
| Hangers for upper garments | Shirts, blouses, jackets, T-shirts and dresses | Support drape, stability and a consistent in-store presentation |
| Hangers for lower garments | Trousers, skirts and shorts | Provide secure hold, strength and ease of handling |
| Hangers for sets | Suits, complete looks or coordinated garments | Help organise the display and improve the product’s visual readability |

Types of hangers by material or finish
The different models of hangers for stores can be adapted to the type of garment, the display format, the rail design, the product volume and the specific needs of each retailer.
The hanger as an operational asset
In retail fashion, a hanger accompanies the garment at different moments along its journey. It can play a role in transport, storage, display, in-store handling, recovery and recirculation.
It also influences how rails are organised, how products for sale are displayed, and how available space is used in the store or warehouse.
That is why its design must meet both aesthetic criteria and operational, logistics and circular needs.
