Quality Control & Inspection

2026-09-08 15:16:10

Quality is the #1 concern for any importer buying from overseas. Here's exactly how EBuyone controls quality at every stage — and how you can verify it independently.

Our Quality Control Process

We run QC at three stages:

  • In‑line QC — checks during production (fabric, stitching, sizing)

  • Finished goods inspection — full inspection after production

  • Pre‑shipment inspection — final check before your goods leave our facility

AQL Inspection Standard

We use the AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit) sampling standard — the industry benchmark for apparel. AQL 2.5 (major defects) is typical, meaning a statistically sampled portion of your order is inspected and must fall within an accepted defect threshold.

Pre‑Shipment Inspection

Before any order ships, we inspect:

  • Quantity against your order

  • Fabric, color, and sizing against spec

  • Logo/print placement and quality (for custom orders)

  • Packaging integrity

Third‑Party Inspection (Buyer‑Arranged)

You're welcome to arrange an independent inspection (e.g., SGS, BV, Intertek) at your own cost. We fully support third‑party inspection and will coordinate the timing. This is a great option for large or high‑value orders.

What If Defects Are Found?

If a defect is found, we correct it before shipment. If you discover issues after receiving the goods, see our Quality Guarantee & After‑Sales page — we have a clear replacement/refund process.
