Plastic Zip

NOTAPE™ II

NOTAPE II is a zip fastener that has been pared back to the bare essentials. Made from plastic, it does without the commonly used fabric tape edges, reducing the overall weight by more than 25 per cent. Applied directly to the fabric by injection moulding, NOTAPE II provides a simple and cost-effective application solution that eliminates the need for colour matching and maintains the flowing properties of lightweight textiles. The zip also prevents damage to fabrics and stops materials such as feathers from escaping.

Statement by the Jury

With its minimalist design and light weight, the NOTAPE II zip is an elegant, innovative and environmentally compatible product solution.
