Quality Control Policy

Our QC Commitment

Quality control is central to our mission. We conduct multi-stage inspections to ensure products meet specifications and are defectfree. However, we cannot guarantee perfection; we commit to identifying and resolving issues before delivery.

QC Stages Stage
Stage 1: Factory Pre-Production Inspection
  • Review of raw materials and component quality
  • Verification of production equipment calibration
  • Assessment of factory compliance with specifications
  • Timeline: Before production begins
Stage 2: In-Process Inspection (for orders 1000+ units)
  • Random sampling during production (5-10% of batch)
  • Verification of dimensions, colors, and functionality
  • Documentation of any issues for immediate correction
  • Timeline: Midway through production
Stage 3: Final Inspection (100% for small orders, sampling for large orders)
  • Complete review of all aspects: appearance, functionality, packaging
  • Function testing for applicable products
  • Packaging verification and label inspection
  • Documentation and photographic evidence
  • Timeline: Before shipment
Defect Classification

We classify defects to determine acceptance or rejection:

  • Critical Defects: Functionality impaired; product unusable (zero tolerance)
  • Major Defects: Significant cosmetic or performance issues (max 0.5% of batch)
  • Minor Defects: Small cosmetic issues not affecting function (max 2% of batch)
Defective Unit Handling

When defects are identified:

  • Factory is notified immediately for correction or replacement
  • Defective units are replaced at factory’s cost
  • If defects are widespread, entire batch may be rejected
  • Client is informed with photographic evidence before shipment
  • Shipment does not proceed until quality standards are met
QC Testing Services

We offer specialized testing at additional cost:

  • Electrical/Safety Testing: For electronics and appliances
  • Material Testing: Fabric durability, material composition
  • Performance Testing: Stress testing, durability trials
  • Third-Party Lab Testing: Organic certification, hazardous material screening

Clients must specify testing requirements in advance; quotes provided separately.

QC Reports & Documentation

For each order, clients receive:

  • Detailed QC inspection report with photos
  • Certification of compliance with specifications
  • List of any defects found and remediation taken
  • Final approval sign-off before shipment
Acceptable Quality Levels (AQL)

Our standard AQL is based on ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 standards:

  • General Products: AQL 2.5 (2.5% defect rate acceptable)
  • High-Precision Items: AQL 1.0 (1% defect rate acceptable)
  • Premium/Luxury Items: AQL 0.65 or tighter (can be customized)
  • Custom AQL standards can be negotiated per client specifications.
QC Limitations

QC cannot identify:

  • Hidden internal defects (without destructive testing)
  • Defects that appear only after extended use
  • Issues caused by improper handling after shipment
  • Specifications not clearly communicated

We recommend clients specify any critical performance parameters upfront.
