Luggage & Heavy-Duty Bags

In the travel and tactical sectors, the zipper is the critical failure point. A bag that cannot close is useless. Zipex manufactures high-performance fastening systems engineered to withstand the unique stresses of heavy loads, rough handling, and over-packing.

We specialize in high-tenacity Nylon Coil zippers featuring “woven-in” technology that significantly increases cross-wise strength, preventing teeth from pulling away from the tape under pressure. For high-security applications, we offer puncture-resistant double-coil zippers designed to prevent forced entry or “pen-popping” theft.

Whether for rugged tactical backpacks requiring silent operation or hard-shell luggage needing smooth cornering capability, our UK-manufactured components ensure your products survive the journey.

Key Capabilities:

  • High Burst Strength: Reinforced woven construction designed to resist the outward pressure of overfilled bags.
  • Puncture Resistance (Anti-Theft): Double-layer coil technology that resists forced entry by sharp objects, securing valuable contents.
  • Abrasion Resistance: Durable components tested to withstand friction from conveyor belts and rough transit handling.
  • Water Repellent: PU-coated reverse coil options (AquaGuard style) to protect gear from rain and moisture.
