1. Product Safety: Non-Negotiable Standards
Every colourant we produce undergoes rigorous testing to meet the highest global safety benchmarks. From raw material sourcing to final formulation, we ensure:
Zero Harmful Substances: Full compliance with REACH (EU), South African NRCS regulations, and lead-free certifications.
Industry-Specific Safety: Adherence to standards like IATF 16949 (automotive) and EN 71-3 (toy safety) for specialized applications.
Transparent Documentation: Readily accessible Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and batch-specific test reports.
2. Environmental Responsibility: Beyond Compliance
We design for sustainability, not just regulatory checkboxes:
Low/Zero-VOC Formulations: Reducing environmental impact while meeting SANS 10400 (South African building standards).
Resource Efficiency: Water-based technologies and waste-reduction practices aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
3. Ethical Manufacturing: Integrity at Every Step
Our operations reflect our commitment to people and principles:
B-BBEE Level 1 Empowerment: Investing in skills development and equitable opportunities in South Africa.
Fair Labor Practices: SA8000-aligned working conditions and partnerships with SAQA-accredited training programs.
Global Standards, Local Relevance
While we meet international regulations like EU REACH and ISO 9001, we prioritize tailoring solutions to African markets. Our R&D team works closely with the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) and the African Organisation for Standardisation (ARSO) to ensure products address regional needs without compromising safety or performance.
Community Accountability: Regular audits and open dialogue with stakeholders near our Midrand facilities.
