Sample Check
We inspect glove samples before mass production, visual and functional quality, and basic physical performance—helping you evaluate suppliers and avoid early-stage quality issues.
Production Monitoring
Our inspectors stay on-site to monitor daily production processes and identify issues such as incomplete curing, surface contaminants, or defective glove molds—ensuring stable quality and timely corrective actions.
During Production Inspection (DPI)
Conducted when at least 10% of production is complete, this inspection helps detect early problems like thin spots, pinholes, color inconsistencies, or improper beading—allowing time for necessary adjustments before full production is finished.
Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI)
A comprehensive quality check performed when production is 80–100% completed and packed. Key aspects inspected include:
- Product Integrity (pinholes, tears, weak points, tackiness, discoloration, foreign matter, material consistency, stretchability, cleanliness)
- Dimensions (length, palm width, thickness at finger/palm/cuff, size assortment, sizing & thickness compliance)
- Packaging (pieces per box per carton, sealing condition, transit protection, clean storage condition)
- Labeling & Regulatory Marking (material statement, size, color, sterility status, lot number, manufacturing date, expiry date, country of origin, EN 455 series, ASTM D6319 compliance marking)
- Traceability (consistency of product, inner box, outer carton, production lot and shipment records)
Container Loading Supervision (CLS)
We supervise the container loading to ensure the correct products are shipped in proper condition—with clean packaging, correct quantities, no mixing of batches, and safe stacking to prevent damage during transit.
