Not only do we thrive on solving daily problems with simple solutions, but we also aspire to provide life experiences with a sense of style and uniqueness.

Whether you are giving us a virtual fist bump, sharing our product through your social media or pledging, your support is critical to Dango Products' success. Thank you for joining us in our mission of bringing quality product to the market - fitting an active lifestyle with industrial design.
We have made several rounds of prototypes leading up to the design that we have settled on bringing to the market. Through progressive development, we have learned a lot and went through several changes to provide the best product possible. We designed a product to essentially help you out, not hold you down. We want you to be satisfied and pleased with our product. That is why the design and development process is so important to us.
To provide the best quality product, we strategically chose CNC machining for the manufacturing
process of the Dango Loop Hook and Wall Mount. The most challenging part was balancing aesthetics
and manufacturing costs to the look, function, experience and MSRP that we felt was most appropriate
for this product. We have tried making prototypes and cheaper alternatives through laser cutting, water jet cutting and even thought about die-casting the Loop Hook, but these processes did not meet our quality standards. Although an expensive route to go, we felt that no other manufacturing process would give
us the strength and precision for the Dango Loop Hook and Wall Mount that CNC machining would
help us achieve.
We have done extensive research partnering with the best suppliers and machine shops in the business to keep production running smoothly. We have already conducted pre-production runs without issue and feel confident that we can start production immediately after the campaign ends. We are committed to providing quality product and meeting demand as needed. Our suppliers have dedicated capacity to support our project, ensuring that product can be delivered timely.
It is important for us to keep things made in the USA, supporting local
San Francisco Bay Area businesses and providing superior quality to our customers.
