ICEBREAKER WAS THE FIRST COMPANY IN THE WORLD TO DEVELOP DEEP, LONG TERM RELATIONSHIPS WITH MERINO GROWERS.
icebreaker growers are committed to a strict animal welfare code that even extends to sheep dogs working at the stations.
100% of the contracted icebreaker merino stations have been audited in the last three years.
icebreaker merino stations are audited on a three year cycle by JAS-ANZ accredited AssureQuality Ltd. The audit process involves on-site visits, discussions, access to farm stock, facilities and records, citing of supporting documents and written plans. Additional random vet and shearing audits also take place.
sustainability isn’t just a feature of our products, it’s in the values and design of our business.
