Final Random Inspection (FRI): When at least 80 percent of an order has been export-packed, we take over quality control. Cargo Container Loading Supervision (LS): Before shipping, we make sure that an order is finished and safely loaded into a container.
Testing	Lab testing of your products in accordance with guidelines, procedures, and standards
Audit	Our audits ensure your supplier has the required competence, compliance, and capability to meet your needs. Factory Audits: We provide an assessment of a manufacturer’s Quality Management System (QMS) and perform surveillance audits of their production processes.
