Ethical Sourcing

Our commitment to ethical diamond sourcing is at the heart of everything we do. We are dedicated to sourcing diamonds in a way that respects human rights, upholds environmental standards, and ensures compliance with international regulations. We understand that the diamond industry has a long history of unethical practices, and we want to ensure that our business practices are as responsible and transparent as possible.

Our commitment to ethical sourcing starts with our diamond suppliers. We take extra care in selecting diamond suppliers that adhere to the highest quality and ethical sourcing standards. We require all suppliers to provide us with full disclosure regarding the origin of their diamonds and to certify that each diamond has been ethically sourced under international guidelines.

We also take additional steps to ensure that our diamonds are sourced responsibly. We only source diamonds from legitimate sources and suppliers who comply with the Kimberley Process, the international standard for ensuring that diamonds are not used for illicit or unethical activities.

Environmental Impact: Ethically sourced diamonds have a reduced environmental impact because they are mined using sustainable methods that minimize pollution and damage to the land. Additionally, they are not contributing to illegal activities such as diamond smuggling, which can harm the environment.

Social Impact: Ethically sourced diamonds support local communities by providing job opportunities and a fair wage. The proceeds from these diamonds are reinvested into the local economy, which helps to reduce poverty and boost economic growth.

Economic Impact: Ethically sourced diamonds are of higher quality and are more likely to retain their value over time. Additionally, the money spent on ethically sourced diamonds is often reinvested into the local economy, which helps to create jobs and boost economic growth.

IceCarats also takes extra measures to ensure traceability throughout the supply chain, from the mining site to the finished product. This helps to build trust with customers and create a reputation for ethical sourcing. IceCarats is dedicated to providing customers with high-quality diamonds that are ethically and responsibly sourced.
