What makes WISE Mannequins truly sustainable?
There’s a lot of greenwashing in the market today, with companies touting sustainability without making real, impactful changes. However, at WISE Mannequins, our commitment to sustainability is authentic. Our clothing mannequins are made from ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), a material that ensures both environmental responsibility and enhanced usability. Let’s explore how this innovative material makes our mannequins the sustainable choice for your business.
No greenwashing: sustainable mannequins made with ABS
Over 85% of the world's clothing mannequins are produced using FRP (Fiber-Reinforced Plastic) technology. Unfortunately, FRP relies heavily on toxic resins, which contribute to environmental pollution during both the production process and the end-of-life phase. Even the so-called bio-resin options, derived from plants, possess significant drawbacks—they are still toxic and non-recyclable. This is where WISE Mannequins stand out. Our ABS mannequins avoid these environmental hazards entirely, offering a clean, non-toxic solution that is 100% recyclable.
Clean production process for sustainable clothing mannequins
Unlike FRP mannequins, the production process of our ABS mannequins doesn’t involve toxic resins or harmful chemicals. This ensures that the manufacturing environment remains clean and safe for workers. There’s no need for heavy sanding or polishing, which drastically reduces the exposure to harmful particles in the air. This approach results in mannequins that are as safe to produce as they are to use.
Reduce CO2 emissions with sustainable mannequins: 60% lower carbon footprint
ABS mannequins aren’t just better for the planet in terms of recyclability—they also have a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to traditional FRP mannequins. By reducing CO2 emissions by up to 60%, our mannequins help our customers meet sustainability goals and improve their annual ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reports. This commitment to lowering emissions makes WISE Mannequins a smart choice for any brand looking to lead the way in sustainable practices.
Planet-friendly clothing mannequins: 1 mannequin = 1 tree planted
To further offset our carbon footprint, for every mannequin sold, WISE Mannequins plants one tree. The production of one ABS mannequin releases approximately 20kg of CO2, which is the amount absorbed by a fully grown tree over the course of one year. By planting a tree for every mannequin sold, we aim to give back to the planet and ensure a more sustainable future for generations to come.
Why choosing sustainable mannequins benefits your business
Choosing sustainable mannequins is not only an environmentally conscious decision but also a smart business move. Here’s why:
Extended durability: ABS mannequins are incredibly durable, withstanding the rigors of frequent use and handling. They last longer than traditional mannequins, providing a better return on investment for retailers and reducing the need for replacements.
Ease of handling: Our sustainable mannequins are designed with easy handling in mind, making them a practical choice for visual merchandisers and display designers who need to regularly move and adjust displays. For example – try our AURA series with magnetic fittings!
Functionality meets sustainability: WISE Mannequins strike the perfect balance between functionality and sustainability. Whether you're a fashion brand or a retail store, our mannequins are designed to meet your practical needs while supporting your sustainability goals. For instance, you can get a set: the PURE clothing mannequin as a base + an additional pair of different arms for easy interchangeability!
