Our #5 and #7 Smooth Nylon Zippers are more than just closures—they’re a statement of sustainability. Crafted with eco-conscious materials and ethical manufacturing, these open-ended zippers offer the same effortless smoothness and heavy-duty performance while minimizing environmental impact, making them the ideal choice for green fashion initiatives.
Eco-Friendly Construction
- Recycled Nylon: Made from 90% post-consumer waste, including recycled fishing nets and fabric scraps, reducing reliance on virgin plastics.
- Low-Impact Dyes: OEKO-TEX® certified dyes eliminate harmful chemicals, ensuring zippers are safe for skin and planet.
- Energy-Efficient Production: Manufactured using renewable energy, cutting carbon emissions by 40% compared to traditional zippers.
Uncompromised Performance
Despite their sustainable roots, these zippers deliver the same frictionless glide and rugged durability. The #5 handles medium-weight sustainable fabrics like organic cotton, while the #7 supports thick recycled polyester blends in outerwear.
Closed-Loop Design
Designed for easy recycling at end-of-life, these zippers can be separated from garments and repurposed into new nylon products, closing the sustainability loop.
- Sustainable Sizing:
- #5: Lightweight (11g per 30cm) for eco-friendly jackets and dresses.
- #7: Heavy-duty (17g per 30cm) for weather-resistant recycled parkas.
- Natural Color Palette: Earth tones (olive, terracotta, slate) derived from plant-based dyes, plus custom Pantone options using non-toxic pigments.
Eco-Conscious Fashion Brands
Perfect for brands creating zero-waste collections, these zippers complement recycled denim jackets and upcycled tote bags, reinforcing a commitment to sustainability.
Corporate Sustainability Initiatives
Brands can opt for logo-embossed sliders made from recycled materials, aligning zipper design with their ESG goals for uniforms and promotional apparel.
DIY & Upcycling Projects
Crafters and makers use these zippers to breathe new life into vintage garments or create eco-friendly accessories, knowing they’re using responsibly sourced components.
Ethical Consumer Appeal
Consumers increasingly prioritize sustainable products; these zippers help brands communicate their environmental values through a tangible, high-quality feature.
Long-Term Cost Savings
Durable construction ensures these zippers outlast fast-fashion alternatives, reducing waste and replacement costs for both brands and consumers.
