Custom Zipper in Aluminium with Paint Spray for Uniform and Corporate Programmes

Custom Zipper — Aluminium with Paint Spray

We supply zipper to garment factories and brands, built in Aluminium with paint spray for outerwear and jacket programmes. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is tape shrinkage matched to the garment fabric, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 2000 pieces per style per finish.

The failures here are predictable: colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim, or minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare UKCA and REACH documentation so the shipment clears instead of sitting at port while your selling season passes.

How we produce it

1. Drawing or reference sample review, with size and finish confirmed
2. Material selection and a finish sample or strike-off
3. Prototype made to the agreed gauge
4. Fit and wash test on the actual garment fabric, then a pre-production sample
5. Bulk run with paint spray applied under controlled settings
6. In-line inspection, final AQL 2.5 inspection and packing to your ratio

Where it is used

• Denim and workwear — hard-wearing finishes that survive industrial washing
• Outerwear and tailoring — matched to the shell fabric so it drapes with the garment
• Childrenswear and schoolwear — tested to the destination's safety standard
• Bridal and eveningwear — small runs with hand-finished detail
• Uniform and corporate programmes — repeatable spec held on file for reorders

Packing, testing and delivery

Trims are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by garment set — with barcodes applied where the line needs them. Test reports for salt spray test for metal finishes are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Felixstowe with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved reference so reorders reproduce the same material, the same finish and the same tape shrinkage matched to the garment fabric.

FAQ

Can you do small runs across many designs?

Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.

How do you control colour on reorders?

The approved reference and the bulk standard are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.

Which compliance documents do you provide?

We prepare salt spray test for metal finishes and the supporting test reports for the destination market.

Can you match a reference sample?

Yes. Send the trim and we match material, finish and shade, then confirm on a pre-production sample before bulk.
