Inspection & QC

What We Verify on the Factory Floor

We don't just count boxes or take photos. 29plus inspects your goods directly on the factory floor. As your independent verification on the buyer's side, we check material consistency, production condition, and dimensional accuracy down to a 0.1mm tolerance. Sample sizes follow the international AQL standard (ISO 2859-1, General Level II by default), or your own sampling plan if you have one.

29plus on-site inspection with 0.1mm measurement
Inspection Scope What We Check
Dimensional Accuracy Measured with precision tools against your drawings or CAD files, to a 0.1mm tolerance. Applies to hardware, consumer goods, and packaging components.
Surface & Finish Coating durability, color consistency checked with a colorimeter, scratches and other defects.
Material Consistency Raw material specs and thickness checked against your approved standards.
Assembly & Function Fit, assembly, and moving parts checked under real-use conditions.
Quantity & Packaging Quantity count and packaging condition. Carton drop test on request, recommended for retail-packed products.
Factory staff may help move and open cartons, but we choose the samples and make every measurement and judgment ourselves. Large orders may need more than one inspection day, and we'll tell you in advance.
Data-Backed Reporting, Not Just "Pass/Fail"

Every inspection report includes measurement data, the defects found, photos and video from that day, and our view on what to do next. When something is wrong, we also suggest how to fix it, worked out together with the factory.

Verdict Standards
  • Pass: All items within spec. We recommend shipment.
  • Conditional: Minor deviations found. We lay them out for you, and shipment goes ahead once you confirm.
  • Fail: Critical defects found. We recommend holding shipment until the factory fixes them, and we work out the correction with the factory. Re-inspection is available.
A re-inspection after a Fail is charged as a regular visit. Many buyers write into their purchase order that the factory covers this cost.
Timeline & Pricing

On-site inspection is completed within one working day, and the report is delivered within 24 hours of the visit. Pre-shipment Inspection is $380 per visit, or $199 per visit for Production Liaison clients. For factories outside our standard area, travel fees are quoted in advance.
