One moment — pulling in the catalog…
4-stage quality control with AQL 2.5 standard. Pre-production sample, in-line inspection, final random inspection, and pre-shipment photo evidence. Defects caught before they reach the box.
Each stage has a specific purpose. We don't skip stages for tight deadlines.
Physical sample on your exact fabric, exact color, exact print placement. You sign off before bulk cut.
QC team checks the first 30 pieces off the line, then samples 10% of remaining production. Defects caught before they reach the box.
Industry-standard AQL 2.5 sampling. Acceptable Quality Limit. We pull a statistically valid sample and grade each defect category.
Final photos of finished, packed, and loaded cartons. You see exactly what ships before it leaves the factory.
AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit) is the industry standard for random sampling inspection. It tells you how many defects are statistically acceptable in a sample of your lot.
Functional, safety, or legal defects. Examples: broken stitch on structural seam, fabric hole, missing required label (CPSIA, country of origin).
Visible defects that affect the customer's use. Examples: print off-center by more than 5mm, color visibly different from approved sample, oversized seam, loose thread.
Cosmetic defects with no functional impact. Examples: small thread on hem, slight color variation in under-arm area, minor printing imperfection at edge.
The entire lot is 100% inspected piece-by-piece. Defective pieces are removed and replaced at our cost (we don't pass defect-rejection fees to the customer). The lot is re-inspected before pack-out. In 8 years, fewer than 3% of lots have required a full re-inspection.
Yes. We welcome buyer-side inspections. We can host your QC team at our Yiwu facility for a half-day or full-day inspection. Inspection fees are typically $200-400/day plus travel. Most clients use our in-house QC and only visit for first-time orders or large lots (5,000+ pcs).
Document the defects with photos within 7 days of receipt. We'll credit the value of the defective pieces on your next order, or issue a refund if no next order is planned. In 8 years, our defect claim rate has been under 1% of total pieces shipped.
Yes, for orders over 5,000 pcs we recommend third-party inspection as a final check. Cost is typically $300-500 per man-day. We work with QIMA, SGS, and Bureau Veritas. The third-party inspector uses our QC checklist and AQL 2.5 standard.
Every fabric roll is inspected before cutting. Fabric with visible defects (slubs, holes, dye spots) is rejected and replaced. We use approximately 8-10% more fabric than the finished piece count to account for cuttable defects.
