YKK® Aquaguard®
Waterproof protection with YKK® AquaGuard® Zippers
In the realm of outdoor gear and apparel, few components are as crucial as zippers. From jackets to backpacks, the zipper serves as the gateway to protection against the elements. Enter YKK® AquaGuard® zippers, the gold standard in water-repellent zipper technology.
The YKK® Advantage
With YKK manufacturing approximately half of all zippers worldwide, it’s clear that they have mastered the art of zipper production.

For decades, YKK has been at the forefront of zipper technology, continuously pushing the boundaries of what’s possible to deliver products to consumers worldwide.
Dependability
When it comes to zippers, reliability is paramount. Whether you’re scaling a mountain peak or simply navigating a rainy city street, you need gear you can trust. YKK® AquaGuard® zippers deliver on that promise with dependability. With a PU film applied to the reverse side of the zipper chain and a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, these zippers form an impenetrable barrier against moisture, keeping you dry and comfortable in any weather conditions.
The science behind AquaGuard®
At the heart of YKK® AquaGuard® zippers lies a combination of advanced materials and innovative design. The PU film applied to the reverse side of the zipper chain acts as a barrier, preventing water from seeping through the zipper teeth. Meanwhile, the DWR treatment enhances water repellency, ensuring that moisture beads off the surface of the zipper, rather than penetrating the garment.
Ensured quality
YKK’s commitment to quality doesn’t end with manufacturing. Before AquaGuard® zippers ever reach the market, they undergo rigorous testing to ensure performance and durability. From simulated rainstorms to extreme temperature fluctuations, YKK leaves no stone unturned in their quest to deliver zippers that exceed expectations.
