Who are Riri Zippers?
Riri is an Italian based zipper manufacturer. They are one of the leading zipper manufacturers in the world. Founded in 1936, Riri has been in business for over 80 years. They were the first to patent die cast zipper on Nylon, putting zipper teeth and tape into one piece. The company manufactures zippers, zipper pulls, zipper stops, and finished zippers. Although the company is based in Italy, Riri makes their zippers in both Mendrisio, Switzerland as well as Tirano, Italy.
One-way zippers have one zipper pull, where as a two way, or combi, can have zipper pulls placed on either end. A separating zipper will come apart at the bottom, allowing both sides of the zipper to come apart. Separating zippers are most commonly found on jackets.
What makes Riri zippers superior?
High quality is what Riri is known for, and is what sets them apart from any other zipper on the market. Customers note a smoother experience, as well as a higher quality and feel.
