2023-25 Objectives
Put in place robust processes to ensure the integrity of our product
TLKE’s collections are produced to the highest quality standards. All our jewellery is REACH tested and hallmarked in accordance with EU and UK regulation. We have a code of conduct in place to govern the way we work with suppliers and ask our suppliers to commit to the requirements.
In 2023 we will put in place a stronger due-diligence process to check that suppliers continue to adhere to the requirements and provide evidence to back up any claims.
achieve third-party accreditation for the way we run our business
We want our customers to feel confident when buying TLKE collections. We’ll do this by meeting third-party accreditation standards that guarantee we are accountable to the highest standards.
In 2023 we aim to secure Positive Luxury’s Butterfly Mark certification.
