Hans Boodt Mannequins is a Dutch manufacturer of mannequins with headquarters in Zwijndrecht, near Rotterdam. The company offers a wide range of collections, including the Muse Collection, the Sport Collection and the Lingerie Collection, all of which are designed and developed in the company's own 3D design studio. Hans Boodt Mannequins pays particular attention to sustainability, as demonstrated by their fully circular mannequin solutions and the use of 3D printing techniques to reduce the ecological footprint.
Hans Boodt is revolutionizing the production of mannequins through the use of innovative 3D printing technologies. This method not only enables fully sustainable production, but also the possibility to recycle the products and use them in a closed loop. Retailers can return the mannequins after a few years to reuse them in new concepts or other products. This is a unique approach in the industry that is both ecologically and economically convincing.
Thanks to state-of-the-art 3D scanning technology and customized development, Hans Boodt Mannequins offers limitless design possibilities. From the likeness of real people such as Roger Federer to creative concepts such as athletes or animals - the production processes are flexible and fast. By dispensing with minimum order quantities, even small retailers can benefit from this technology. Manufacturing in Europe reduces delivery times and transport emissions, which further underlines the company's sustainability claim.
3D printing technology has numerous advantages. Production is not only faster than traditional methods, but also much more resource-efficient. The plastic used, a recyclable PET material, comes partly from recycled plastic bottles and can be reused in a wide variety of products. In addition to mannequins, Hans Boodt also offers displays, pedestals and other retail presentation solutions that can be customized.
With a price of around €800 per mannequin, Hans Boodt not only delivers quality, but also sustainable solutions for the retail sector. The closed recycling loop, the adaptability of the products and the environmentally friendly production set new standards in the industry. The possibility of using the materials for new products makes Hans Boodt a pioneer for sustainable innovations in retail design.
