Eco Friendly Alternative Packaging

In this section of the site, you will hopefully find a range of innovative products that are manufactured in a way, or from materials that offer an environmentally friendlier alternative to traditionally produced items.

The advantages may prove to be more than just an improved environmental performance though, as is the case with DEFENDA Green Hangers. Introduced as an attempt to alleviate the horrendous burden placed on landfill sites by the millions of metal and plastic hangers discarded each year, they have quickly established themselves as a favourite amongst those healthcare professionals working with groups at risk of self-harm or harming others. For these groups, plastic or metal hangers were strictly off limits. The strong board used for the DEFENDA  Hangers however, provides a functional and safe means of storing clothing whilst maintaning an air of normality/dignity for service users. They are also ideal for use within the H. M. Prison service & other secure/safe units serving a range of ages.
