We are a unique combination of legacy and innovation. A family-owned and operated business since 1936, we’ve done something few companies have—survived and thrived. We’re still here because of our satisfied customers and empowered employees. Our staying power is a testament to the quality of our zippers, and so much more.

We are constantly working to develop new technologies that enhance our mainstays and to also create new best-sellers. We labor tirelessly to increase our product range, listen to our customers needs and desires, and address practical solutions that make the end user have a better experience.

With IDEAL you get the worldwide production, international engineering and top-notch quality of a large company, and you also get the effortless customer service and experience of a small family owned business. You can order from anywhere, and we are there for you!

IDEAL has been committed to doing right by the planet for a long time. In 2007, we developed the world’s first zipper made from recycled polyester. By staying committed to IDEAL’s 3 R’s, Reduce (waste), Recycle (materials) and Re-Invent (new products and processes that are more responsible), we continue to be dedicated to the environment.
