Fashion Quality Control
We have our dedicated Merchandise & roaming QC team. Our QC staff are on-hand to monitor your production to ensure only the highest 1st quality goods are shipped. With stringent QC checks in addition to our factories own QC procedures, quality control is our top priority.
QC:
– All fabric/yarn entering the production facility is checked, evaluated then graded on a 4.0 system. 100% inspections are also carried out if required
– In-line QC’s are present at every stage of production who sign off the first part of each process to ensure continuity
– There are also separate AQL QC’s who sign off the final inspection separately to the in line QC’s
– A full final inspection will be completed if needed for any reason
– A special team of ‘audit section’ inspectors work directly under the supervision of senior management and control the entire production area. The team performs random checks and keeps daily records. Goods are only forwarded for packing if they pass their approval.
– Daily records are handed to the quality control manager; this manager, in turn, compiles the records and reports daily to senior management
– 2.5 AQL (SGS or ITS)
– 100% QC if required
– QC accredited to BS6001
Labels and Trims
Work with Rag Sourcing to develop labels and trims, or let us work alongside your nominated labels & trims supplier, whichever you choose we make it our business to work how you need us to. From simple woven labels to complex swing tickets, branded buttons to the whole POS kit and caboodle, we have it covered.
Nominated labels & trims supplier:
– All labels & trims are stored in a locked room.
– Labels and trims are counted in and out (reports on stock levels can be requested at any time)
– To avoid any possibility of your labels & trims falling into the wrong hands and being used for black market products.
In-house developed labels & trims:
– We use a separate labels & trims supplier to our factories.
– This gives us more control over the development process and to reduce unit costs per item.
– It also allows for multi-product, multi-supplier sourcing where we provide the labels & trims for your brand to avoid any subtle differences between labels and trims between each supplier.
– Stocks can be stored with us for call-off if you have multiple supply bases or shipped directly to you or your own distribution.
