Case Study: Enhancing Zipper Performance for Large-Scale Tent Structures
Client
- A leading tent and fabric structure manufacturer producing custom canopies and modular enclosures for large events and commercial installations.
Challenge
- Zippers needed to withstand high tension, heavy loads, and frequent assembly/disassembly in outdoor environments without compromising strength or ease of operation.
- All components had to be weather-resistant and align with the client’s premium, custom-branded aesthetic.
Solution
- Recommended a heavy-duty molded tooth zipper with reinforced tapes for maximum tensile strength.
- Applied a custom UV-resistant coating to sliders for long-term durability and brand consistency.
- Prototypes were tested under sustained load and repeated use, showing no visible wear or operational issues.
Outcome
- The new tent systems improved setup and takedown efficiency by 25%, reducing labor time and costs.
- The structures performed flawlessly in varied weather conditions, earning praise from event organizers and end clients.
- The manufacturer now specifies Lenzip zippers for all flagship tent and fabric structure projects.
