Clothing packaging accessories may seem unimportant, but complete packaging can ensure that the clothing is not damp and moldy during transportation, and it can also avoid friction and collision. The paper quality and thickness of the hanging tag and the user info sheet will affect the quality of a clothing, and high-level brands generally use thicker materials to avoid folding the tag, which will damage the brand image.
Children’s clothing is often sold with hangers. Although it is thoughtful, there are also concerns about environmental protection. It is best to reuse them to avoid burdening the earth.
