Coats threads are manufactured and quality controlled to the highest standards possible. Since the conditions of use, washing, pressing and cleaning etc. vary, the purchaser should assure themselves by preliminary tests that the dye fastness of the yarn or thread is 100% colourfast to crocking or washing under all conditions. We cannot be responsible for any consequential damages howsoever caused since the value of the thread is so disproportionate to the value of the goods into which it is stitched.
