waterproof or airproof zips

[Jono 42]

Anyone know the best options. We're talking to suppliers but they are just wholesale. Anyone got pointers as to the best manufacturers?

We're investigating making airtight pressurised tents and the zip access is a bit curly at present.

I know they make something like a big ziplock bag zipper but can't remember where.

In the past I purchased zippers directly from YKK at volume discounts. The zips I used were for the entry zipper on an Imperial Survival Suit - http://www.reveresupply.com/revere_2008/5_...rsion_suit.html
