Colour Connections Textile Consultancy has teamed up with Historic Futures to deliver the world’s first global multi-tier auditing scheme for dyehouses, printers, laundries and tanneries.

Colour Connections bring the benefits of their unparalleled expertise in dyehouse auditing, industry best practice and compliance issues via Historic Futures’ award winning, user-friendly web-based interface.

ICE Compliance launched on 14th April 2008 and for the first time ever retailers, brands and individual dyehouses can demonstrate to their customers, suppliers and stakeholders that they are proactively managing:-

• Worker safety
• Environmental compliance
• Responsible use of chemicals
• Ongoing improvements in supply base transparency, quality, efficiency and reduction of environmental impact

How it works

• Dyehouses register on this site and carry out a demanding minimum standards self audit on their facility and submit the audit data for approval
• An independent auditor performs an on-site audit to verify the minimum standards self audit at the request of a dyehouse or retailer/brand
• The best dyehouses can elect to be audited against world class performance and environmental metrics and be awarded the ICE Compliance mark of excellence
• All compliant dyehouses are provided with non-forgeable electronic certificates and are listed on this website
