Open-End Zipper with Silicone Wash Finish for Scarves
This open-end 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 silicone wash finish surface, the 12 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps scarves 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 shade drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk lot. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
