Zipper Research

Published March 30, 2026

This research studies which zipper brand is most common across clothing and everyday items. We are tracking visible zipper markings and labeling each sample by brand so we can compare how often each one appears.

The pie chart below summarizes the current count from our sample set. Categories include major zipper makers like YKK and SBS, plus grouped categories such as Other.

In this chart, Branded means the zipper has the logo of the clothing or item brand itself, rather than a separate zipper manufacturer mark.
