Waterproof Zipper with Glossy Enamel Coating for Activewear
This waterproof 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 glossy enamel coating surface, the 50 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps activewear 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 lead time quoted without the plating or dyeing sub-process, or a trim that passed sampling but failed in-line because it was never cycle tested. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
Can you match a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 2000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
What happens if a bulk lot fails inspection?
The lot is reworked or remade at our cost. Inspection reports are shared before the balance payment is due.
How long does sampling take?
14 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
