Wholesale Buckles – Metal, Polyester and Plastic

Buckles for clothing and accessories

Buckles fasten and adjust belts, straps and shoulder straps. In this category Polkom, a manufacturer and wholesaler of garment accessories, brings together polyester and plastic buckles – light, moisture-resistant and easy to colour in the shade of the fabric. They are the natural choice for coat, trench coat and dress belts, sports straps and backpacks, as well as childrenswear. If you are looking for alloy buckles for leather belts, bags and footwear, see the separate metal buckles category.

Metal buckles

Metal buckles in zinc alloy, brass and steel are the strongest choice for belts, bags, footwear and outerwear. They come in various finishes – nickel, gold, antique, black nickel and matt – and can be made with an embossed or engraved logo. More models, sizes and personalisation options are in the metal buckles category.

Polyester buckles for coats and dresses

Polyester buckles are made of polyester resin – the same material used for many fashion buttons. This allows the buckle to be in exactly the same colour and with the same surface as the coat's buttons, for a harmonious, finished look. We offer them in widths of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cm, as well as intermediate sizes on request to match the belt width.

Surfaces and shapes

• Gloss, matt and textured surfaces
• Single-colour, two-tone and with horn, marble or mother-of-pearl effects
• Rectangular, square, oval and round shapes
• With or without a prong – for tying or looping the belt through

Plastic buckles for straps and backpacks

Technical plastic buckles are made of polyacetal (POM) or polyamide and are designed for webbing and straps that are adjusted frequently.

• Side-release buckles – two-part clip fasteners for backpacks, sports bags and children's belts.
• Tri-glide adjusters – three-bar sliders for changing the length of a strap without stitching.
• Strap keepers – for securing the loose end of the webbing.

Custom buckles with your logo

Polyester buckles can be coloured to match a fabric swatch, and the logo engraved or embossed on the face. We also produce special shapes to your design. The process ensures smooth edges and even colour across the whole batch. Before production you receive a sample to compare with the fabric and buttons of the collection.

How to choose a buckle

Start with the width of the belt or strap – the inner opening of the buckle should be equal or slightly wider. Then take the material thickness into account: for a double wool coat belt, the opening needs to be taller. Finally, choose the shape and surface to suit the style of the garment. If the hardware also includes rings or metal elements, see our rings to put together a matching set.

Quality and care

Polyester and plastic buckles do not rust, do not stain the fabric and withstand washing and dry cleaning. For coat belts worn every day, we recommend a thicker profile and rounded edges that do not rub the fabric. Before the production order, it is wise to test the sample together with the belt in real wearing conditions.
