Quality Control & AQL Standards
Rigorous quality assurance protocols with AQL 2.5 inspection standards to ensure export-ready garments that meet international quality expectations.
Multi-Stage Quality Control
Quality is verified at every stage of production, from incoming materials to final inspection before shipment.
Incoming Inspection
All fabrics and trims verified before production
- Fabric weight & width
- Color matching (ΔE)
- Defect identification
Cutting Inspection
Pattern accuracy and cutting quality verification
- Pattern alignment
- Size accuracy
- Notch verification
In-Line Inspection
Quality checks during sewing process
- Stitch quality
- Seam alignment
- Construction accuracy
Final Inspection
AQL 2.5 inspection before packing
- 4-point system
- Measurement check
- Appearance review
AQL 2.5 Standard
We follow the internationally recognized Acceptable Quality Limit (AQL) 2.5 standard for final garment inspection.
What is AQL 2.5?
AQL 2.5 means that in a random sample inspection, no more than 2.5% of garments can have major defects. This is the industry standard for export-quality apparel.
Defect Classification
Critical
Defects that make garment unwearable or unsafe
- • Broken needles in garment
- • Wrong size labeled
- • Missing components
- • Safety hazards
Major
Defects that significantly affect appearance or function
- • Visible holes or tears
- • Broken stitching
- • Color shading
- • Measurement out of tolerance
Minor
Small defects that don't affect wearability
- • Loose threads
- • Small stains (removable)
- • Minor stitching irregularities
- • Small fabric flaws
Measurement Verification
Every production run includes detailed measurement checks to ensure size consistency across all garments.
Tolerance Standards
±0.5 inch (±1.3 cm) tolerance on critical measurements
Spec Sheet Compliance
All measurements verified against approved tech pack specifications
Size Grading Accuracy
CAD-based grading ensures consistent size progression
4-Point Inspection System
We use the industry-standard 4-point system to evaluate fabric quality, where defects are assigned points based on their size.
Defects up to 3 inches
Defects 3-6 inches
Defects 6-9 inches
Defects over 9 inches
Maximum acceptable: 40 points per 100 square yards
