  • Ceramic & Stone Products: Decorative vases, pottery, stone carvings, and tiling.

  • Other Hard Goods: General consumer hardware and miscellaneous non-textile products.

2. Specialized Technical Protocols

Hard goods require a combination of aesthetic judgment and rigorous physical testing. Our inspection process includes:

A. Material & Workmanship Excellence

  • Moisture Content Check: Essential for furniture and handicrafts to prevent warping, cracking, or mold during transit.

  • Surface Finish Evaluation: Checking for smooth sanding, consistent painting/glazing, and the absence of burrs or sharp edges.

  • Structural Integrity: Verifying joints, welding points, and assembly stability.

B. On-Site Functional & Safety Testing

  • Load & Stability Tests: Ensuring furniture and sports equipment can safely support intended weight capacities.

  • Abuse & Torque Tests: Specifically for toys and household items to ensure small parts do not detach (choking hazard prevention).

  • Carton Drop Test (ISTA Standard): Simulating the rigors of international shipping to ensure packaging adequacy for fragile items like ceramics and stone.

  • Smell & Odor Test: Ensuring no prohibited chemicals or unpleasant odors remain from glues or finishes.

3. Comprehensive Inspection Stages

We mitigate risk throughout the production lifecycle:

  • Pre-Production Inspection (PPI): Checking raw materials (timber, clay, stone) before production begins.

  • During Production Inspection (DPI): Identifying defects while the goods are still on the assembly line.

  • Final Random Inspection (FRI/PSI): A statistical AQL inspection once 100% of the goods are finished and 80% are packed.

  • Container Loading Supervision (CLS): Ensuring fragile items like ceramics or heavy stone products are stowed correctly to prevent breakage.
