Examples of MaxiGrip and U-MaxiGrip Zipper Applications: Dry Bag, Military Tent, Chemical Protective Clothing

HIGH PERFORMANCE APPLICATIONS

Industrial Strength, Heavy-Duty Zippers for Government, Military, Medical, Commercial, and Consumer Applications


ITW has developed waterproof zipper and fastener elements for numerous military and government projects, where MaxiGrip is used for barrier closure protection. Our large heavy-duty tent zippers are even used in wrapping tanks in armament dry storage for the U.S. military. MaxiGrip zippers are made in the USA in our NJ facility and are Berry Compliant.


Many commercial and consumer products start from military roots and MaxiGrip protective closures are a perfect example of this journey. Battlefield tested, they are ready to meet any commercial zipper or consumer zipper requirement where dependability is a must.


While current applications range from waterproof, heavy-duty tent zippers to bonded zippers for dry bags and watertight closures for recreational hydration packs, applications continue to evolve and expand. More and more product manufacturers are leveraging the dependability of MaxiGrip's industrial strength protection, durability, and functionality into their products.
