Polyoxymethylene (POM), commonly used in zippers, fasteners, and other textile-adjacent hardware, offers excellent dimensional stability, low friction, and wear resistance. Its durability makes it a material of choice in high-performance, long-life applications—but also presents challenges at end-of-life, particularly in mixed-material products. Sustainable developments in the POM sector focus on closed-loop recycling systems, cleaner production technologies, and renewable-based feedstocks for co-polymers. New manufacturing methods aim to reduce formaldehyde emissions and improve energy efficiency, while engineered POM grades now support easier separation and reuse. Brands integrating POM components are increasingly aware of the importance of material compatibility, recyclability, and supply chain traceability. B2B platforms can assist in sourcing advanced POM materials and identifying manufacturers that support circular design principles across fashion and performance goods.
