Natural wood suits brands that want to show the material, and multi-brand stores where the hanger must stay neutral. Solid wood is hard and dense, the grain is even, and a natural wood hanger withstands many years of daily handling without splintering. In light store interiors natural wood adds a little warmth where white would disappear completely.
If the material must be documented, e.g. in supplier forms or ESG reporting, choose the FSC-certified models. Read more in the guide to colours and finishes and in the article on wood, metal and plastic.
On natural wood, laser engraving is the obvious choice. The logo sits tone-on-tone, slightly darker than the wood, and cannot wear off. It is the look Nümph uses, for example. Pad printing in one colour is also possible. The minimum is 300 hangers in total, models can be mixed, and the lead time is approx. 3 weeks from approved proof. Try it in the The Logo Designer, or read about pad printing or laser.
Both are in stock. A black hook on natural wood gives a unified, dark look and suits black racks. A white hook gives the light, Nordic look. Halifax is available in natural wood with both. See more under hanger hooks and metal parts.
