Overview
What this service is for.
Testing tells you what a material can do. Inspection tells you what the factory actually produced. The two only work well together. SHINE coordinates inspection at the production stages where intervention is still possible, and reports in a way that supports a release decision.
What's Covered
Scope of work
Inline inspection
Assessment during production, while a correction can still be applied to the balance.
Pre-shipment inspection
Final verification of finished, packed goods against the agreed specification.
Container loading supervision
Oversight at the point of loading to confirm quantity, condition, and packing.
Measurement checks
Spec conformity across the size set on a sampled basis.
Packing & labelling review
Confirmation that cartons, labels, and presentation match the buyer requirement.
What You Get
Outcomes you can act on.
- A clear factual account of what was found on the floor, with supporting detail.
- Findings framed against the specification so a release decision is straightforward.

Inspection & Auditing — frequently asked
Before the line starts. A pre-production check on materials and the approved sample catches problems that inline inspection can only document after they have been sewn into several thousand units.
Inspection sampling follows an agreed plan based on order quantity and the tolerance you set. We confirm the plan with you before attending so the outcome is not disputed afterwards.
Yes, and they should. When an inspector sees a recurring defect on the floor, that observation often points directly at a material property worth testing. We keep those two threads connected.
