Manufacturing
We have our own manufacturing facility in Ningbo, China which gives us ownership across the entire process from design through to delivery of the end product. We have total control so you get to enjoy the best yarns, consistent colour, high performance standards, contemporary designs, the best fit and superior levels of manufacture.
All garments and processes are continually tested and reviewed to ensure the highest standards in the school uniform market.
PSW has a vertical sourcing and manufacture operation meaning we can control our entire supply chain. We employ over 200 staff in our own facility in Ningbo China where we have constant and regular audits by the Chinese and Australian Governments. Our facility is ISO rated, we have obtained ISO9001 (which is quality assurance) and ISO14001 (environmental standards).
We abide by the labour standards established by the International Labour Organization (ILO) in relation to human rights and environmental sustainability at all stages of our supply chain. This code of conduct extends to our own factory and any of the 3rd party vendors, factories and sub-contractors used. Furthermore PSW is a signatory to the Australia Fairwear Program, a community campaign which addresses exploitation of home-based textile and clothing workers in Australia.
At PSW we take all reasonable steps to ensure the goods we produce are safe and not harmful to our customers.
We meet all legal standards for consumer health and safety, our fabrics do not have any chemical products added, and we test for Azo Dyes and Formaldehyde.
We adhere to the European coloration standards which meet the highest levels of harmful or toxic substances.
PSW has an in-house quality assurance team. We ensure all products are colour fast and durable so that we are catering for the wear and tear, and laundering of our products throughout the school year. We are confident that given our dedication to quality raw materials, any PSW garment you purchase will be of the highest quality all around the world.
