DESIGN INTENT
Combine a metallic visual language with molded-element construction.
PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT
Review the selected chain, slider and end construction as one assembly. Evaluate a sewn sample in the intended garment fabric before approving appearance, operation and care performance.
DESIGN COLLABORATION
Share a drawing, garment sample or reference zipper. HEAT can review the chain profile, tape, colour, puller and attachment detail with your design and product team.
LIMITATIONS & NEXT STEPS
Final sizes, element profile, material composition and compatible configurations are confirmed against the selected sample. Nominal size numbers do not establish interchangeability between chains and sliders. Agree care requirements and component tests before approval. Review abrasion, washing, colour stability and appearance after the intended care cycle.
