New zip and thread products for the sportswear industry
28/03/2013
The zips use an auto-lock clip-down slider and puller, eliminating the problem of dangling zip pullers that can cause irritation during exercise.
Eloflex is a new sewing thread, high in elasticity and tenacity, making it suitable for use in the seams of garments with high points of strain such as sportswear and gym wear. The thread’s high stretch properties, strength and durability reduce the risk of seams splitting and tearing.
Frazer Smith, chief commercial officer at Coats, said: "Both products demonstrate our continued dedication to responding to our customers’ needs and our commitment to pioneering invention."
