YKK stands for Yoshida Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha which roughly translates
as Yoshida Company, Ltd. They are a privately held Japanese firm which
makes all sorts of fasteners but zippers are probably their best known
product (especially for us). The U.S. branch has a web site which might
be useful:
www.ykkamerica.com
(In a previous life I was an academician specializing in Things
Japanese, including their industrial structure.)
