  • During Production Inspection (DPI/DUPRO): Assessment of semi-finished or finished goods once at least 40% of the order has been produced, helping to identify and correct issues early.
  • Final Random Inspection (FRI): Quality control of finished products when a minimum of 80% of the order has been packed for export, ensuring readiness for shipment.
  • Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI): Comprehensive qualitative and quantitative checks at warehouses or loading sites to verify product compliance before dispatch.
  • Cargo/Container Loading Supervision (LS): Oversight of the loading process to confirm that goods are complete, correctly handled, and securely packed for transport.
