How V-Trust Helps You Control the Quality of Garments

V-Trust ensures consistent garment product quality and regulatory compliance throughout the entire production process. Our full range of garment 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 garments.

Sample Check

We assess garment samples in our lab, reviewing workmanship, stitching, fabric GSM, shrinkage, etc., to help you evaluate suppliers before mass production.

Production Monitoring

We provide continuous on-site production monitoring for garments to ensure consistent quality and early detection of issues such as fabric defects and sizing inconsistencies. This service helps factories optimize their production processes and maintain high standards of garment quality throughout the manufacturing cycle.

During Production Inspection

During Production Inspection is conducted when at least 10% of the order is completed. It helps identify issues such as mislabeling, size variation, or assembly flaws early—reducing rework and delivery delays.

Pre-Shipment Inspection

At the final stage of garment production, we conduct a comprehensive inspection to verify:

  • Overall product quality and compliance with international standards
  • Measurements, stitching quality, and workmanship
  • Fabric, trims, and material conformity
  • Packaging condition, folding, and labeling accuracy

Container Loading Supervision

We ensure your garments are correctly loaded, neatly stacked, and packed in clean containers. This minimizes the risk of damage during international transport and ensures your products arrive in perfect condition.

Garment Product Quality Control: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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.
