Structure & Materials
1. What is a hanger box?
A hanger box is a rigid or folding carton box with an integrated hanger or hook mechanism that allows it to be suspended from retail display fixtures, pegboards, or hooks. The hanger can be die-cut directly into the box structure or attached as a separate component, making it ideal for retail shelf and peg display.

2. What types of hanger mechanisms are available?
Several hanger options are available:
- Euro slot: Die-cut slot for hanging on pegboard hooks

Hanger boxes can be made from various materials:
