MANNEQUINS.
Across apparel retail globally, mannequins drive sales. IA Hardware is at the cutting edge of mannequin fabrication - including fibreglass, fabric and polyethylene, to cardboard and recycled plastic.

MATERIALS AND METHOD




CARDBOARD

A unique formula of paper pulp and plant based glue are used to create a completely recyclable body form. Exclusive to IA Hardware, this is the mannequin of the future. Currently available to select customers - please contact us to discuss partnering.

HDPE

Whilst still being moulded, HDPE is a much harder-wearing material - nearly indestructible. IA Hardware produces these mannequins with part virgin, part post-consumer waste material.



FIBERGLASS
Traditional mannequin production involves the mounding of body shapes and positions from fibreglass, which is then finished with a select coating.


FABRIC

Using a fibreglass mould, a fabric wrap is added to provide a more traditional tailored mannequin appearance. Often complimented with solid timber arms and heads, these torsos and mannequins continue to be extremely popular.

Can’t find the form your business needs?
Let us help you by scanning and 3D printing models that are exactly what you’re looking for. Once scanned our team will manipulate the model to function as a mannequin, so we can print a prototype before producing a mould and broader production. A simple process to solve real problems.
