As from Jan 2004 Ferroxcube are no longer colour coding their toroid products.
Apparently the use of ISO9000 type procedures in keeping track of quality /

What a foolish decision. ISO 9001 requires some form of marking and
tracking of product, not procedures to avoid it.
OK, the consultant who implemented the system is a lunatic, but the
Lloyds/BVQI/TUV/whatever auditors should not have accepted it.
I hope some day the Phillips/Feroxcube idiots make the crucial mishandling
error and supply a defence industry with a large shipment of the wrong
product...
