Final Inspection Room in Garments Industry

Final Inspection Room in the Garments Industry

The final inspection room is also known as the ‘Final Audit room’ or ‘Inspection Room‘ where the buyer QC inspects finished products, evaluates samples, arranges pre-production meetings, and performs other buyers’ QC tasks. There is a final inspection room in every garment industry to inspect finished products. The inspection room is only for customer QC’s tasks. The inspection room is very much restricted, and controlled by the customer inspector, only very few people are allowed to assist the customer/ buyer QC inspector.

What is required in the garments inspection room? All QC inspection tools and secured place for conducting the audit. That’s all or more things required in the buyer QC inspection room, as we have mentioned below.

Inspection Room lighting standard

For the garments industry, two types of light are best for inspection, artificial daylight (D65) is good for product inspection. And CWF light is good for shade checking, the lighting requirement is a minimum of 1000 lx. Having a lightbox in the room would fulfill the light source requirements.
