Social Compliance Statement
The Quantum Clothing group of companies manufacture and source product from within the U.K. and internationally. We firmly believe that in doing so we are applying the highest ethical standards for human rights, labour and environmental practices. 
We understand that our manufacturing units should not stand apart from the country in which they operate and that their activities and conduct should be a source of positive influence. 
As a supplier we recognise that, by treating our employees with respect and allowing them to operate in working conditions that are clean and safe with a fair days wage, this makes a difference in increasing productivity, reducing risk and improving quality. In turn this will also lead to increased customer confidence. 
Being socially compliant only delivers these benefits if done effectively so a monitoring program, with country law as a minimum standard, is in operation with improvement programs geared towards compliance with the E.T.I. base code.
