Zipper Guard with Pearlescent Coating for Caps
This zipper guard is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the pearlescent coating surface, the 9 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps caps 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 spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack, or a compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
Which compliance documents do you provide?

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.
Can you handle our own artwork or tooling?
Yes. Artwork files or existing tooling can be used; we confirm tolerances in writing before the first production run.
What are the payment and delivery terms?
Standard terms are a deposit with the order and the balance before shipment, under EXW / FOB / CIF / DDP as agreed.
