Society of Dyers and Colourists

Our Annual Review is located within the About Us category.

SDC is the world's leading independent, educational charity dedicated to advancing the science and technology of colour worldwide. Established in 1884, we have been representing our members and our industry for over 100 years. For further information please navigate to the About Us section.

We are moving from over five separate websites to just one website!  This is in direct response to feedback from members about the difficulty experienced in finding information on our old websites.  We hope this website will offer one central source of information, with much improved search and navigation facilities. 

Find out all about the inventor of the first synthetic dye by reading through The Perkin Legacy.

This is SDC’s most significant milestone to date and you can read more about the Royal Charter here.
