Buttons are almost as ancient as clothing. Information exists that buttons from the Bronze Age are found in India during excavations and in Turkey buttons are found dating back to 10,000 years B.C. Their history is more than rich. During the millennia they revived for use at times and at times were forgotten. They were characteristic of the clothes of the rich and noble circles and inaccessible to ordinary people. Any kinds of materials were used, from wood and stone to precious metals and diamonds. In 18 – 19 century their decorative value reached unexpected heights, and after the World War II showed up their utility function – then they were used completely as intended – for fastening.

Possibilities at the production of polyester buttons:

Different types of buttons are produced, depending on the form of the material used. Buttons can be bar-like when the polyester is in the shape of a rod. For the flat buttons the raw material is pre-processed in the form of a sheet. This is important for the dye process – usually the flat buttons are of single colour and the bar-like ones are subject to shading and dyeing. The transparent or translucent models are also among the bestsellers. Depending on the desired effect, different chemicals are added to the raw material. This is how nacreous shine, snow whiteness or metallic appearance is achieved. Polyester buttons can imitate almost any material – even completely natural ones, such as horn. And this could be done with such quality that it will be difficult for a non-professional to recognize the imitation.

These are the most widely used buttons in the world:

The preferred ratio for polyester buttons and all other materials is about 10:1. This is easy to understand given its extremely low price. They can tolerate all known decoration and decoration methods and procedures. In addition, inscriptions and logos can be added according to customer requirements. Additional interior coloring makes them more effective and attractive to consumers. Another very important advantage is that almost all the required properties can be controlled in the production process - from density (controlled in the polyester casting process) to the number and width of holes, the spacing between holes, and shadows, brightness and gloss. In this regard, there are four variants of buttons - bright, semi bright, matte and matte.
