How do I get my frames quality-inspected before shipping?

You have three practical routes to inspect frames before shipping: rely on the factory's final QC report, appoint a third-party inspection agency such as SGS, Bureau Veritas, or QIMA to audit the lot on your behalf, or combine both for high-value orders. Whichever route you choose, the inspection is booked once goods are fully produced and mostly packed, and the report you receive becomes your evidence for accepting or rejecting the shipment.

Choosing Between the Three Options

How to Arrange the Inspection, Step by Step

1. Pick the agency and standard: choose the inspector and the AQL plan or checklist your contract references.
2. Send the reference pack: approved samples, spec sheets, packaging artwork, and defect examples so the inspector checks the right things.
3. Book the date: most agencies need 2 to 3 working days' notice once goods are 100% produced and at least 80% packed.
4. Attend or go remote: you can visit, or rely on the written report with photos and sampled carton numbers.
5. Decide on the result: accept, ask for rework and a re-inspection, or hold the shipment until issues are fixed.
