Why Choose Peggs?
Here at Peggs, we believe the products you buy should last.
That's why we focus on quality and craft clotheslines and laundry accessories that are built to stand the test of time. They are made from high-quality materials that are light, strong, and weather resistant. We use powder-coated aluminium with stainless steel fixings so our clotheslines won't rust or corrode. You'll never get rust marks on your clothes, which can often happen with inferior products and clothes racks.
They can last a lifetime
Thanks to their lightweight and sturdy construction, our clotheslines are easy to move around the house or yard – even when they're loaded up with washing. This is why they're so popular among the elderly and those with mobility challenges. They're light, strong, and easy to handle, providing you with ultimate convenience, sometimes for a lifetime.
For example, when one of our customers bought an original Peggs clothesline over 20 years ago and brought it in for servicing, we knew we had created something special. That's because they loved their Peggs clothesline so much that they didn't want a new one - they wanted to keep the original, which is a common story! This customer was in their 90's. So we replaced the fittings and gave it a bit of love, and now, after more than 23 years of service, they're still using that same clothesline. Our products have only improved in quality since this original purchase, so if you show your Peggs clotheslines some love, they can last you a lifetime.
Just start hanging
You also don't have to worry about assembly when you buy any of our clotheslines. All you have to do is slide them out of the box and start hanging - it's as easy as that! Plus, they fold flat, which makes them ideal for small spaces or travelling. No more bulky storage space needed!
Replace your fixed clothesline
An important point to understand is that our products are not clothes airers - they are actual clotheslines that can be easily moved around. In many cases, our customers actually replace their outdoor fixed clotheslines with our portable products because they are so convenient and have large hanging capacity. Depending on the model you buy, you can hang up to two loads of washing on them, including king-size sheets! They literally leave flimsy collapsable clothes airers for dead.
Peggs are an investment
We believe portable clotheslines should be an investment, not something you must keep replacing. That's why Peggs clotheslines come with a 10-year warranty, and we can supply spare parts if needed well beyond the warranty period.
When you call us, you'll always be connected to a real person who is passionate about our products and committed to helping you get the most out of them. We take pride in delivering superior customer service and helping you maintain the condition of your clotheslines.
At Peggs, we're passionate about making laundry easier for everyone.
Peggs Story
At Peggs, we take pride in our evolution from a portable clothesline specialist to a laundry solutions provider since our inception in 1995. Our unwavering commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction has driven us to develop a suite of laundry products that cater to the evolving needs of our customers. As we look ahead, we have rebranded ourselves as Peggs with a renewed focus on delivering smarter laundry experiences. We remain dedicated to enhancing your laundry routine and strive to bring you new and exciting products to make doing your laundry easier.
It all starts in the 1980s
Mrs Peggs Portable Clotheslines were a game-changer for customers
It all began in the early 80's when Patricia Roberts lived overseas in a small unit and needed an efficient way to dry her laundry without stretching long lines across living spaces. After much trial and error, she created a reliable portable clothesline that could be easily folded up and moved around when not in use.
As a result, Patricia founded 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' in 1995 with no idea of the overwhelming response that these portable clotheslines would receive. Little did she know that her invention would become so well-loved by customers and inspire real passion for the 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' brand.
'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' were a game-changer for those living in tight quarters. They no longer had to hang their laundry out windows, across hallways or on clothes airers that would ultimately break, collapse or continuously fall over.
Their lightweight construction made them easy to move around so customers could simply pull out their portable line and secure it in any place that was convenient – indoors or outdoors. This made drying clothes much easier and more efficient while also giving people a sense of freedom and independence. Often customers would stop using their outdoor clotheslines in preference for their 'Mrs Peggs' portable alternatives.
New Ownership
Innovation led to new ownership
'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' unwavering commitment to quality and attention to detail made them a trusted name in clotheslines over time, helping them build a loyal and passionate customer base. This commitment to using best-in-class materials and construction techniques led the team at 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' to start working with the company's new owner, Oswin Gegenhuber, in 2013 to keep improving and innovating.
At the time, Oswin, an engineer who had previously worked at Hills for 20 years, assisted in improving 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' manufacturing. The resulting quality improvements were so significant that 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' worked exclusively with Oswin and his team for the next 7 years. So when it came to deciding who should take over the reins of 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' when the founder was ready to retire in 2019, it seemed only fitting that they sold it to him.
A New Vision for Peggs
'Mrs Peggs' would be proud
During his first year, the portable clothesline specialist was eager to learn the ins and outs of the 'Mrs Peggs Handy Lines' business and understand its customers. This led Oswin to develop a vision for Peggs that was bigger than the portable clotheslines on which Mrs Peggs' business was built. He wanted to create an entire suite of laundry products that would make life easier for customers. So, with a few tweaks and some modern touches, the beloved 27-year-old brand was transformed, and Peggs was born.
Peggs's story is about innovation and dedication to customer satisfaction - a legacy that will continue as we develop new products. From portable clotheslines to customisable laundry accessories, Peggs vision is to produce everything you need for a smarter laundry experience. Mrs Peggs would be proud.
For easier laundry, now there's Peggs.
