Appearance and style

The process entails a comprehensive evaluation of the product's style to confirm it aligns with the intended order requirements and client’s specification. This includes checking for color accuracy, design alignment, and overall aesthetic appeal to ensure it matches the predetermined specifications and brand identity.

The inspectors meticulously compare the products against approved samples or detailed style guides, paying close attention to textures, finishes, and any specific design elements that are critical to the brand's image.

Material

Inspectors are required to verify whether every type of material used in the product meets the specifications outlined in the order. For products that require specific material qualities, like water resistance or flame retardancy, specialized tests are conducted to confirm these attributes.

Additionally, material verification includes confirming the compliance of materials with relevant safety and environmental standards. This involves checking for the presence of harmful substances, ensuring adherence to regulations like REACH or RoHS in applicable regions.

Sampling

The number of samples for random inspection is determined based on the INSPECTION LEVELS requested by the client and the LOT SIZE of the goods. Then, find the corresponding AQL on the table. For example, if the required INSPECTION LEVEL is II, AQL is 0/2.5/4.0, and the LOT SIZE is 5000 pcs, then 200 pcs will be randomly sampled. The acceptable range for the number of defects is Critical 0 pcs/Major 10 pcs/ Minor 14 pcs. If the number of defects exceeds these limits, the goods will be rejected.
(Default: Inspection level II, AQL 0/2.5/4.0)

Quality check

Each sample selected for random inspection is individually examined, and all defective products are identified and segregated. These defective products are then categorized and quantified. This result determines whether the entire batch of goods falls within the AQL (Acceptance Quality Limit) range and is the key basis for deciding whether to accept or reject the shipment.

Size Measurement

Key dimensions like length, width, height, and diameter are measured, along with specific features relevant to the product's design, such as the size of logos or print areas. It's crucial to compare these measurements against the specifications provided in the order or the approved sample. Any deviation beyond the accepted tolerance levels should be noted as a defect.

Label & Logo

Inspectors should closely examine the labels and logos for accuracy in color, size, placement, and font against the approved design specifications or reference samples. The quality of printing or embroidery, depending on the method used, should also be assessed for clarity and durability.

Additionally, inspectors must ensure that all required information, such as product composition, care instructions, or compliance symbols, are present and legible on the labels. Photographic documentation of labels and logos is recommended to provide a clear record of the inspection findings.

Packing & Packaging

This includes checking the thickness and strength of boxes, the integrity of seals, and the adequacy of cushioning materials. The packaging's size and shape should be assessed to ensure efficient and safe handling.

Additionally, inspectors need to verify that all packaging complies with branding requirements, including shipping mark, accurate logos, color schemes, and any necessary product information or instructions.
