Audit Compliance
Clothing Design Studio is fully inspected for production by all large retailers; we have undergone various technical, security and ethical audits.
Ethical Audit
Clothing Design Studio is proud to be fully compliant with SMETA.
Clothing Design Studio has conducted on-site SMETA audits at the factory to assess how labour, health and safety, environmental and business ethics standards are being met.
The SMETA ethical audit was conducted by independent auditors, on behalf of retailers.

Technical Audit
Individual retailers have their version of a technical audit, which involves ensuring the quality of garments. Clothing Design Studio is proud of its craftsmanship and always strives to maintain a high-level of quality for all garments.
Security Audit
We have also undergone a security audit for large retailers. A strict security audit was conducted that confirms Clothing Design Studio on the right track towards protecting against a data breach and other costly security threats.
