Snap caps finishing
How to turn a snap into a fashionable design accessory
While the functionality of the snap is determined by the system’s sockets and studs, the snap cap is primarily important for the look. There are virtually no limits to the design possibilities of snap caps. However, the material and the manufacturing process determine the technical feasibility. Below you will find an overview of the main design options. You can find an overview of our cap types and shapes here.
In principle, there are virtually no limits to the design options for snap caps. The material and the manufacturing process determine the technical realization.
Ex. Recessed embossed and round brushed
- Embossing of logos and textures or both combined (double layer)
- Galvanic finishing (see separate color chart)
Ex. Deep embossed and matte/gloss effect
- Embossing logos or textures
- Coloring the plastic granulate (masterbatch) according to the desired color such as RAL, Pantone or YKK
- PVD coating on request (€€€)
- Matte / glossy effect
- Tampon print
Ex. Breakthrough / Cut-out
- Design of individual cap shapes and motifs, implants possible e.g. such as rhinestones, reflective foils, injections (epoxy resin), etc.
- Diamond-cut look / diamond-cut (€€€)
- Breakthrough / cut-out
- Galvanic finishing, lacquered surfaces (see separate color chart)
Below you will find examples of our design options. Please note that the design options depend on the material of the caps. You can find this information at the top of the page.

ECO-FINISH COLLECTION
ECO-FINISH COLLECTION
For snap caps and jeans tack buttons
YKK is convinced that “no one can prosper without benefiting others”. We are guided by this philosophy in all our work and processes. As part of our environmental activities and research, we have developed a new, more environmentally friendly finishing process for our snaps under the name “ECO-FINISH COLLECTION”. We use 70% fewer chemicals and 54% less water in the production of “ECO-FINISHES” than with classic electroplating. “ECO-FINISHES” also helps to reduce electricity consumption. Our YKK philosophy is based on sustainability in everything we do – for a better world in which we live. You too can contribute to this. For more information, please contact our sales or marketing departments.
* Due to the natural production process of “ECO-FINISHES”, the color tolerance range is greater than with standard processes.
