Quality Standards

Back| Print| Bookmark

There are two British Quality Standards in existence to which we work to and use as a minimum standard for our products.

The two Quality Standards are:-

  • BS.4162:1983 "Method of Test for Buttons"
  • BS.3866:1979 "Specifications for Holes and Shanks for Buttons".

Since the conditions of use, washing, dry cleaning and packing of a garment can vary greatly, we advise customers to contact our technical department who are available to discuss the suitability of any particular item.

We always work to the British Quality Standards as a minimum, and do recommend where possible, that solid colours are used on garments rather than dyed colours, as the dyed colours are only surface dye. Please check here for the Guidance and Care of Selection of Buttons.

M and S Certificate Quality Standards

Laboratory Testing

We have a fully accredited laboratory for the testing of our products, including:

  • Colour fastness
  • Dry cleaning
  • Wash tests
  • Steam tests

This accreditation is approved by one of the worlds leading retailers and our standards are checked annually.

M and S Test Certificate

We regret that we cannot assume responsibility for consequential loss or damage in those cases where our products are subjected to treatment for which they were not designed.

Please contact us  with your specific requirements and we will arrange for a sample to be sent to you so that you can see for yourself the quality of our Buttons.

We are extremely proud of our reputation for quality.
Our Technical Department is always available to give help and advice.
