About us
We are a British product design and manufacture business based in Bristol. Proudly independent, we’ve been driving our own success for over 30 years.
Phineas was set up in 1984 and started out selling a small range of footwear hangers to a few choice retail brands. Today, we work with leading brands like Marks & Spencer, Primark and Under Armour, and supply our products in over 20 countries around the world.
Our business is built around our belief in the value of good design. We welcome the chance to help clients develop new design solutions that help brands to stand out in-store.
Our broad range of shoe and boot hangers are designed to live long and engineered to work intuitively in store. We also create bespoke hangers that can showcase the individuality of your brand and products.
Design excellence is backed up by our robust manufacturing facilities in the UK and Far East. Our global presence means we can offer clients market-leading costs without compromising on compliance or ethical governance.
Supply chain
We’re known for our production know-how and are specialists in injection moulding tooling. Our multi-impression tooling sets and automated packing lines are designed to reduce manufacturing costs when managing large volume orders.
With sales offices in the UK and Hong Kong and manufacturing bases in the UK and China, we can deliver to most global centres quickly and easily.
Our low cost global logistics network tracks deliveries and is supported by our supply chain management on time and clients informed at every step.
Anti-counterfeit measures are in place to guarantee material and ethical compliance at every stage of the supply chain.
Ethical approach
Making sure we do ‘good’ business is important to us. Our factories reflect this ethical approach by following the retailer client social and welfare standards we have established for all staff.
As part of our Sedex Management membership we stay very close to Health & Safety, Labour Management, Hazardous Materials, Employment Standards and Risk Assessment.
Environment
As one of the world’s largest footwear hanger suppliers, taking responsibility for the world around us is vital. We are committed to recycling and reusing products and actively encourage clients to specify recycled material.
Using recycled material has always been on top of our agenda and we have been producing our core range of black footwear hangers with 100% recycled PS or PP material for over 5 years now. We can guarantee the quality of recycled polymer sold directly to processors.
Sustainability provides a great opportunity to innovate. We are constantly reviewing and investing time and efforts into researching the best way to display volume footwear with the best material with the less impact on the environment.
As part of our commitment to providing eco-friendly hanging solution to the retail industry, we can also provide our customers with a bespoke carbon footprint report on request.
