Complete Sweaters Pre-Shipment Inspection Checklist
Size Measurement Verification
Measure body length, chest circumference, shoulder width, sleeve length, rib cuff and hem dimension. Compare measured data with approved size specification and control tolerance.
Knitting & Fabric Defect Inspection
Carefully check knit surface for dropped stitches, holes, float yarns, uneven yarn count, stains, oil marks and snags. Evaluate surface smoothness and pilling hidden risks.
Color & Shade Audit
Check color uniformity within single sweater and batch shade variation. For color-block and jacquard sweaters, verify pattern registration and color matching.
Sewing & Rib Workmanship
Inspect shoulder seams, side seams, neckline, rib cuffs and bottom hem. Ensure no twisting, uneven stretching, raw edges and excess loose threads.
Embroidery, Jacquard & Hardware Check
For patterned sweaters, check jacquard clarity and embroidery tightness. Test buttons, zippers and snaps for firm installation and smooth operation.
Labels & Accessories Verification
Verify main label, care instruction label, size label and hangtags. Check fiber composition text, washing symbols, spelling and placement conform to buyer requirements.
Packing & Assortment Inspection
Check folding method, dust-proof polybag, quantity per carton, color & size assortment ratio. Confirm shipping marks and barcodes are printed correctly.
Formal English Inspection Report
After on-site inspection, you will receive a full inspection report including measurement data, defect photos and comprehensive quality evaluation.
