VISLON® and ADVANCEN® DP100 with NIR Signature Management Technology
The YKK® VISLON® zipper—featuring NIR (Near-Infrared) management technology—and the YKK® ADVANCEN® snap button (product code NSM DP300) are designed to support those requiring camouflage by day and night, providing a durable closure for uniforms and bags. Thanks to this technology, military personnel face a reduced risk of detection when viewed through an NIR camera.
Fastening systems are a crucial component of military clothing; such garments are often made from fabrics featuring colors and/or patterns that minimize visibility in both daylight and evening hours. These colors and patterns utilize specific techniques and technologies that make it difficult for an NIR camera operator to detect the presence of military personnel. While a standard zipper or snap button would make the garment easily detectable via NIR camera, NIR signature management technology allows the fastener to blend seamlessly with the fabric.
