Tests and documents

Each test we list is tied to a document. Where the document is pending, the test is marked pending on the testing and compliance page.

  • Fabric colorfastness after washing, with the method named.
  • Pilling or abrasion results, where the supplier has them.
  • Water resistance for outdoor products, with the report number.
  • Electrical safety for heated products, for the target market only.

Complaints and returns

When a batch fails, we record the defect, the quantity, and the root cause the partner gives us. We agree the fix in writing before the next batch. Returns and warranty terms are stated in the quote and the order confirmation.
