HS Code 4421.10 – Wood; clothes hangers

HS code 4421.10 is the 6-digit subheading for wood, clothes hangers. It is used for cedar hangers, maple hangers, beechwood hangers, walnut hangers and suit hangers.

What HS 4421.10 covers

This HS code specifically covers wooden clothes hangers, a ubiquitous item in both retail and household settings. Wooden hangers are favored for their durability, aesthetic appeal, and ability to maintain the shape of garments better than plastic or wire alternatives. The global trade in wooden hangers is substantial, driven by demand from garment manufacturers, retailers, and consumers seeking quality home organization solutions. Production often occurs in countries with access to suitable wood resources and efficient manufacturing processes, such as China, Vietnam, and Germany. Major importers include the USA, UK, and Canada, where there is a high consumption of clothing and a preference for sustainable or premium home goods. Sustainable sourcing of wood is an increasingly important consideration for both manufacturers and consumers.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
