AQL 2.5 Standards

Industrial Apparel Quality Control & Inspection

We enforce a strict 8-step quality assurance workflow across material intake, fabric cutting, sewing lines, and packaging to protect your brand's reputation and minimize return rates.

Protecting Your Brand with Zero-Defect Production

We understand that retail returns and poor garment construction can damage your apparel brand's position. Our QC technicians function independently of the production management team, reporting directly to our General Manager to guarantee unbiased, honest inspections.

Our 8-Step Inspection Workflow

From fibers to final export cartons, quality checking is integrated into every manufacturing node.

STEP 01

Raw Fabric Inspection

All incoming fabric rolls are loaded onto light-box inspection machines. We check for yarn defects, staining, holes, and weave consistency, rejecting rolls that score below standard rating systems.

STEP 02

Color Fastness Check

Fabric swatches undergo crockmeter testing (both dry and wet rubbing) and washing tests to ensure dyes do not bleed or migrate during consumer use.

STEP 03

Shrinkage & Wash Test

Before cutting, we run laundry shrinkage tests on fabric batches. The patternmakers calibrate cutting dimensions based on shrinkage ratios to ensure fits are perfect after laundry cycles.

STEP 04

In-line Sewing Checks

QC examiners are stationed directly on the sewing lines. They inspect stitch tension, seam allowances, symmetry, and trim placement, correcting errors on the spot.

STEP 05

Final Measurement Review

Pressed garments are laid flat and measured against the approved size chart spec sheet. We ensure dimensions for chest, waist, cuffs, and length stay within tolerance limits (+/- 1cm).

STEP 06

Conveyor Needle Detection

Particularly for sleepwear, children's clothing, and retail brands, all finished garments pass through a specialized conveyor metal scanner to ensure no broken sewing needles remain.

STEP 07

Packaging & Tag Audit

We verify barcode tags, neck labels, care labels, and sizes match carton sorting plans. Hangtags are checked for placement and polybags checked for warning text legibility.

STEP 08

AQL 2.5 Final Random Inspection

Prior to container loading, our head QC manager pulls random cartons to execute a final audit based on international ISO/AQL 2.5 sampling standards.
