How to Protect The Zipper When Washing Clothes?

Zipper is a kind of product in the shape of a chain that can be separated and locked. Many clothes, handbags and other textiles are equipped with a metal zipper or an antique brass nylon zipper. Zipper is a kind of product with strong vitality. So far, no product can replace zipper. With the progress of science and technology, the application of zipper is more and more extensive, such as zipper facemask, zipper lock bags and so on.

However, zipper protection is also a vexing issue. In life, the biggest damage to zippers is done when washing clothes. Normally we wouldn't pay attention to this problem and just put our zipper hoodies or backpacks with metal zipper in the washing machine. In the process of washing, due to the action of force, the items will keep rolling in the washing machine, and the zipper will also have constant friction or collision with the inner wall of the machine. At this point, if the zipper is not properly protected, it will cause some small parts, such as the case, plunger, etc., to get stuck in some parts of the machine (such as the drain hole of washing machine). 

After being subjected to constant pulling and twisting, these widgets eventually displace or fall off. So, how to protect the zipper when washing clothes?

When washing clothes, we should try to keep the zipper closed. Or we can wrap the bottom of the zipper and zipper slider in cotton cloth while washing. In this way, in the process of washing, the zipper slider will not be in direct contact with the inner wall of the machine and will not continue to collide. Once the bottom of the zipper is wrapped, the zipper roll will not go into certain parts of the washer interior. Then there will be no pull phenomenon and the cloth belt will not be easily separated from the bolt plug. This approach has been shown to be effective in extending the life of the zipper.

In addition, we'd better choose the nylon waterproof zipper when shopping. The waterproof zipper is a kind of nylon zipper with some special treatment. The common treatment methods include PVC film, TPU film, waterproofing agent immersion, coating waterproof zipper and so on. 

The main material of PVC film waterproof zipper is POLYvinyl chloride. TPU thin film is made of TPU granule by special process. It inherits the excellent properties of TPU and has a wide range of applications. Because TPU overcomes many defects of PVC, TPU waterproof zipper is also superior to PVC waterproof zipper in performance. The coating waterproof zipper is characterized by no peeling, no whitening, low temperature resistance, environmental protection, softness and good water resistance. Among them, the waterproof performance level of nylon impregnated waterproof zipper, woven waterproof zipper and woven air-tight waterproof zipper reaches above IPX6X level.
