Textile and Garment Inspections in China

Our Textile Inspection Services in China

At Pro QC, we provide textile inspection services tailored to meet our clients’ needs. Our offerings include:

First-Article Inspections (FAI):

Service Description: FAI is an authentication method specifically tailored for textile manufacturing processes. An FAI report assesses the dimensional properties, fabric quality, stitching, and other critical attributes of the first production sample against the design specifications and industry standards.

Recommended Application: Perform an FAI after finalizing the design and establishing production processes for textiles and garments. An FAI should be repeated whenever there are changes in design or production methods that impact the form, fit, or function of the product. This approach ensures the initial batch meets all required standards before proceeding with mass production.

In-Process Inspections (IPI):

Service Description: IPI, or DUPRO (During Production) inspection, is conducted during mass production of textiles and clothing. This inspection ensures that the products and processes conform to the specified quality requirements at various stages, such as fabric cutting, sewing, and finishing.

Recommended Application: Implement in-process inspections to identify and correct errors early in the textile production process, thus saving time and resources. IPI detects issues as they occur, allowing for immediate corrective actions and adjustments to maintain the quality and consistency of the final products.

Pre-Shipment Inspections (PSI):

Service Description: PSI involves a thorough inspection of randomly selected garment units from all production batches. This inspection checks for conformity to client specifications, including measurements, fabric quality, stitching, labeling, and packaging.

Recommended Application: Conduct a PSI before shipping to ensure that the textile products are free from defects and meet all client requirements. This final inspection is crucial for goods shipped internationally or over long distances, especially for high-value or high-risk items, to prevent costly returns and customer dissatisfaction.

Container Loading Supervision (CLS):

Service Description: CLS monitors the loading process of garment goods at the factory or third-party warehouse. This service ensures that all products are correctly packed and handled during container loading, safeguarding against damage and ensuring proper loading techniques.

Recommended Application: Utilize CLS to confirm that finished textile products are handled and loaded correctly into containers, adhering to specific loading requirements. This service should be performed in conjunction with a pre-shipment inspection if verification of goods is needed before shipping.

Sorting:

Service Description: Sorting services for textiles and garments involve activities such as verifying product quantities on-site, identifying and removing defective units, and reworking products according to predefined procedures. These services are customized to meet the specific needs of garment manufacturers.

Recommended Application: Sorting helps avoid or reduce losses by separating defective textile and garment items from conforming ones. This service is particularly beneficial for clients with limited internal resources or during peak production periods, ensuring quality control and efficient workflow management.
