2. Standard Technical Inspection Process

We strictly adhere to the international sampling standard ISO 2859-1 (AQL) to ensure objectivity and precision. Our on-site inspection process includes:

A. Workmanship and Visual Inspection

  • Stitching Defects: Checking Stitches Per Inch (SPI), loose threads, skipped stitches, puckering, or open seams.

  • Fabric & Material Defects: Identifying weaving flaws, color shading, fabric holes, or yarn defects.

  • Symmetry & Aesthetics: Evaluating the balance between components (sleeves, pockets, collars) and consistency across the entire lot.

B. Measurement Check

Products are measured against the client’s Specification Sheet. We pay particular attention to Critical Points to ensure accurate sizing and fit across all graded sizes.

C. On-site Testing (Field Tests)

VietnamInspections conducts physical tests at the factory to verify real-world durability:

  • Pull Test: Testing the strength of buttons, zippers, and small accessories (crucial for children’s safety).

  • Rub Test: Checking color fastness under friction.

  • Seam Slippage: Evaluating the integrity of fabric at the seams.

  • Fitting Test: Checking the silhouette on mannequins or live models.

D. Packaging & Labeling

  • Verifying care labels, size tags, and barcode readability.

  • Checking carton specifications, shipping marks, and moisture levels to prevent mold during maritime transit.

3. Flexible Inspection Services

To protect our clients’ interests at every stage of production, we offer:

  1. Pre-Production Inspection (PPI): Verifying raw materials and initial samples before mass production begins.

  2. During Production Inspection (DPI): Conducted when 20% – 50% of the order is completed to detect and rectify systemic issues immediately.

  3. Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI): The final check when 100% of the goods are produced and at least 80% are packed, determining the final release of the shipment.

  4. Container Loading Supervision (CLS): Ensuring the correct quantity is loaded securely and the container is properly sealed.
