As consumers become increasingly aware of the detrimental environmental and social effects of so-called ‘fast fashion’, many are taking extra care to double-check that the garments they buy are of high quality and are manufactured in line with ethical standards. In other words, as well as ensuring that their apparel is stylish and affordable, consumers want to invest in garments that are durable and fault-free. For apparel manufacturers, this makes quality control (or QC) more important than ever before.
At Global Inspection Managing, we offer QC tailored for the apparel industry. This includes the provision of assurance services designed for every stage of your garment supply change. From source to shelf, we are here to help.
Thanks to our garment and apparel lab testing expertise and comprehensive inspection checklists, we are able to help clients maintain their brand reputation by ensuring their products are safe and of a quality that surpasses those of close competitors.
To ensure that your products are up to an adequate standard in terms of their workmanship and quality of materials, we utilise a number of quality control measures. These include:
As well as the overall quality of your garments, we test the materials used to manufacture your textiles. These tests are designed in line with the quality regulations of your specified destination countries. Our tests include:
Our footwear tests help you to ascertain the durability of your footwear items, as well as making sure they pass all relevant regulations surrounding hazardous substances.
We test fashion jewellery made from a number of different materials including polymer materials and non-precious metals. Our checks ensure that your products are free from harmful substances and pass all relevant safety checks.
