Zipper Chain with Gunmetal Finish for Suits
This zipper chain is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the gunmetal finish surface, the 8# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps suits 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 cartons packed to the factory ratio instead of the buyer's size ratio, or shade drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk lot. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
Which compliance documents do you provide?
OEKO-TEX Standard 100 documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
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.
Do you hold stock for reorders?
Approved specifications are kept on file and, for repeat programmes, base material can be reserved against a rolling forecast.
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.
Send the reference sample or tech pack and we will come back with a costed specification, a sampling timetable and the compliance documents your market requires.
