TopFrame specialists are ready to provide a comprehensive process for controlling the quality and compliance of textile products with specified standards and requirements. Among our services: visual inspection, checking the quality of materials, measurements, functionality and safety testing, checking labels, packaging, marking. We are also ready to conduct a full audit of the counterparty before starting cooperation and arrange a pre-shipment inspection for any type of transportation. Depending on the specific needs of the customer, TopFrame can carry out a full cycle of inspections or offer individual quality control services.
We take into account all the requirements and expectations of the client in order to develop an individual inspection strategy that will best suit your needs. Our experts carry out detailed quality control of textile products in accordance with your specifications and standards. After the inspection, you will receive a detailed report on the results. It will reflect all the defects found, as well as provide general characteristics of the entire batch of products and an overall assessment of compliance with standards. Each report is supplemented with photographic materials, and personal managers promptly answer questions and inform about the progress of the inspection.
Textiles have specific parameters that a standard visual check cannot cover. Beyond visual inspection, you need to verify size and pattern accuracy, fabric weight and composition, seam and accessory quality, colour fastness, material safety (especially for children's and next-to-skin garments) and labelling compliance. Errors in any of these areas only come to light during a targeted textile inspection: looking at a lot with the naked eye can easily miss size deviations from the pattern, incorrect fibre composition or labelling errors that lead to penalties from marketplaces and retail chains. That is why textile inspection is a dedicated service with its own methodology and checklists.
The full cycle consists of four stages. First, a supplier audit before cooperation begins, to assess production capacity, technology and the quality management system. Second, in-process inspection (DUPRO), where quality is monitored alongside production so defects can be corrected before shipment.
Third, pre-shipment inspection (PSI) of the finished lot: sampling inspection to an agreed plan, measurements, functional tests, and verification of labelling and packaging. Fourth, cargo survey during transport, including loading supervision, container condition and carriage conditions. This stage can also be ordered as a standalone survey at loading, in transit or on arrival. Clients can order the full cycle or select individual stages depending on their risks and budget.
Yes. Many retail chains and fashion brands work to their own quality manuals and provide their own checklists, in which case our inspector works strictly to the client's requirements. If the client does not have a checklist, we use proven standard methodologies adapted to the specific lot and garment category.
By default, sampling follows international statistical acceptance standards such as AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit, ISO 2859-1). The sample size depends on the total lot quantity and the agreed AQL levels.
The report contains a detailed breakdown of all identified defects by category (critical, major, minor), an overall lot assessment, photographic evidence, and measurement and test results. Based on the report, the client can make an informed decision on the shipment.
If the inspection takes place during production or prior to shipment, the supplier usually has time for rework: repacking, replacing defective garments or correcting labels. If defects are found right before dispatch and cannot be remedied in time, the client can reject the lot, negotiate a price discount or accept the goods with reservations.
