Reverse Coil Zipper with Mercerised Finish for Bridal Gowns
This reverse coil zipper is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the mercerised finish surface, the 3# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps bridal gowns consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is a trim that passed sampling but failed in-line because it was never cycle tested, or reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
