How V-Trust Helps You Control the Quality of Lighting Products

V-Trust ensures consistent lighting product quality and regulatory compliance throughout the entire production process. Our full range of lighting inspection services, including Sample Checks, Production Monitoring, During Production Inspection, Pre-Shipment Inspection, and Container Loading Supervision, helps you minimize defects, enhance performance, and meet safety standards for lighting products.

Sample Check

Our engineers carefully evaluate lighting product samples in our lab, assessing key factors such as brightness levels, materials, internal wiring, etc. This helps buyers compare lighting suppliers and make informed sourcing decisions based on quality and performance.

Production Monitoring

We offer continuous on-site production monitoring of lighting products to ensure stable assembly quality and early detection of wiring issues, brightness irregularities, or lens defects. This helps factories improve their processes and ensures product consistency.

During Production Inspection

For lighting products, our During Production Inspection is conducted when at least 10% of the order is completed. It helps identify issues such as poor soldering, unstable light output, or incorrect color rendering early—reducing rework and delivery delays.

Pre-Shipment Inspection

At the final production stage, we perform a comprehensive inspection of your lighting products to verify:

  • Product quality and compliance with safety standards like CE, UL, etc.
  • Lumen output, color temperature, and flicker performance
  • Dimensions, materials, and internal construction
  • Packaging security and labeling accuracy

Container Loading Supervision

We ensure your lighting products are correctly loaded, properly stacked, and packed in a clean, secure container. This prevents damage to fragile items like LED bulbs and fixtures during international transport.

Ensuring Lighting Safety & Compliance with Laboratory Testing

To access global markets, lighting products must meet strict regulatory and testing standards. V-Trust provides independent sample selection directly from production lines and arranges laboratory testing to ensure full compliance.

We conduct testing for the following standards:

  • CE & RoHS Compliance (Environmental & safety testing)
  • IEC 60598-1 (Luminaires safety requirements)
  • EMC Testing (Electromagnetic compatibility)
  • IP Rating Tests (Waterproof & dustproof performance)
  • Luminous Flux & Color Temperature Tests
  • FCC Part 15 for electromagnetic interference (EMI)
  • CA65 (California Proposition 65)

Lighting Product Quality Control: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why do I need a shipment inspection for lighting?

Lighting products are sensitive to quality issues such as inconsistent brightness, color temperature, and electrical safety. A shipment inspection helps identify problems with functionality, appearance, packaging, and compliance before the goods leave the factory. V-Trust's inspection services give you a clear view of product quality, saving you time, cost, and potential customer complaints, without the need to visit the factory yourself.

Will you test the lighting performance during the inspection?

Yes, we conduct functional and brightness tests, along with many other tests like color temperature checks, to ensure your lights perform as expected.

How many days in advance should I book the inspection?

We recommend booking at least three days in advance, although in some manufacturing areas with a large team of inspectors, next-day inspections may be possible.

Do I need to send you an approved sample?

Approved samples are highly recommended for the inspection process, as they help our engineers understand the product specifications and focus on critical areas during the inspection.

How long does it take to get my report?

The official inspection report will be reviewed and signed by a technical manager, and made available within 24 hours after the inspection. A draft report is also available on the same day after the inspection.

What if I have questions after receiving the report?

Our services don’t end after the report is issued. Our team is available to clarify any aspects of the inspection report as needed.
