Quality & Compliance

Quality

Your company needs to have peace of mind that products carrying your brand name are sourced responsibly and that the complete supply chain is managed. We know quality is the cornerstone of our business and without the provision of a quality service and quality products we will not have a sustainable business. We firmly believe that the right merchandise is not only based on price, but a combination of quality of product, best value, and reliability of service from our approved supplier chain.

We operate responsible supply chain management & compliance. We vet all our suppliers, looking mainly to work with factories which are ISO 9001 certified for quality or operate a similar quality management system. We carry out due diligence and new suppliers must demonstrate their compliance with our business policies, and where necessary are subject to factory audits and product testing. We are fully compliant with all UK & EU required business ethical, environmental and sustainability regulations. All products are compliant with relevant safety standards and legislation and certification to prove this is available upon request.

In 2015 we were proud to achieve both ISO 9001 Quality Management standard and ISO 14001 Environmental Management standard certifications. These certifications enable us to demonstrate to our clients a comprehensive programme of quality assurance and environmental management for the business systems. We follow a strict order process procedure as part of our ISO 9001 Quality Management certification and can provide full details of our procedures upon request.

We are also one of the select few companies to be awarded British Promotional Merchandise Association (BPMA) charter status. To achieve this accreditation, we must adhere to the BPMA Charter Code of Practice and provide detailed, documented evidence of customer service and quality procedures within our business.

We use the industry’s leading management software system, Promotional Office, a world leading software solution for our complete business management system to ensure a quality service. The system offers full reporting, content management, and ordering processing tools.

What is Compliance?

Compliance is the act of being in alignment with guidelines, regulation and/or legislation. It is our mission to make sure everything we source is produced ethically and in accordance with relevant laws and standards. We are dedicated to ensuring both social and product compliance and encourage both our customers and suppliers to act the same. Only through transparency in the supply chain are we able to not only comply but better yet to improve practices and working conditions worldwide.
