Quality control / Our own factory

Glove quality control.
Every pair matters.

Our own glove factory checks every finished pair, including dimensions. Inspection connects incoming materials, production, finished gloves and packing to your approved OEM specification.

Finished pairs
inspected.

Every pair receives dimensional and workmanship inspection in our factory. Nonconforming gloves are isolated, reworked and reinspected against the agreed requirements.

From receipt to packing

Glove inspection.
Four connected stages.

Each stage answers a different question. The material must match the brief, the construction must match the sample, and the packed assortment must match the order.

01 / Incoming materials

Start with the right material.

Our full-inspection approach begins with incoming materials. Bring the approved yarn, fabric or leather reference together with the lining, cuff and trims before the production route is released.

What is checked
Material identity, visible condition, color against the agreed reference, and the correspondence between supplied materials and the order specification.
The reference to keep
Material description, color reference and any agreed supporting documentation. Composition or performance testing has a separate, product-specific scope.

02 / Production checks

Check the work as it takes shape.

Inspection continues through production. Checking the work at the relevant operation makes the location of an issue clearer: a panel join, finger seam, lining attachment or cuff should be reviewed in its construction context.

What is checked
The agreed knit or panel structure, seam formation, component alignment, inside finish and application of the current specification.
The reference to keep
The approved sample and construction version. Record an observation by style, operation and location so the required correction is specific.

03 / Every finished pair

Full inspection of finished gloves.

We check every finished pair, including dimensions against the approved size specification. The complete review includes left/right consistency, workmanship and identification, using the measurement points and method agreed for the order.

What is checked
Appearance, workmanship, pair consistency, the agreed dimensional requirements, lining and cuff finish, and the correct brand and size identification.
The reference to keep
The approved physical sample, written size specification, measurement method and agreed acceptance criteria. Specialist testing is defined separately from our every-pair inspection.

04 / Packing & cartons

Keep the assortment correct.

Full inspection also covers packing and carton checks. The style, color, size and pair quantities must remain consistent as the order moves from individual gloves to unit packs and shipping cartons.

What is checked
Pairing and assortment, label and artwork version, unit packing, quantities and the carton information required by the order.
The reference to keep
The packing instruction, assortment matrix and carton-mark version. Confirm pairs per pack and packs per carton separately from the production quantity.

Define the acceptance points

Make the requirement
specific enough to check.

“Good quality” needs a shared meaning. Set the material, measurement, workmanship and presentation criteria before the finished order is reviewed.

Nonconforming gloves / In-house correction

Isolate. Rework.
Reinspect.

A failed pair is separated from accepted goods. Our own factory carries out the correction and checks the glove again against the agreed requirements before it returns to the accepted order quantity.

01

Isolate the nonconforming pair

  • Keep the failed glove out of the accepted assortment
  • Identify the affected style, size and color
  • Locate the dimensional or workmanship issue

Compare the item with the current sample and written criteria. Isolation keeps a known problem from being carried into packing.

02

Rework in our own factory

  • Address the identified fault at the relevant operation
  • Keep the approved material and construction as the reference
  • Confirm any proposed specification change with the buyer

The correction must resolve the issue against the agreed requirement. A different material, dimension or finish needs its own approval; it is not an automatic substitute.

03

Reinspect before acceptance

  • Check the corrected item against the requirement
  • Review the finished pair, including dimensions
  • Return only accepted goods to the order assortment

Rework is followed by reinspection. For your reporting needs, agree how observations, correction and the final result should be recorded for the order.

Keep the acceptance basis unchanged

A correction is not a new specification.

If an issue requires a material, pattern or artwork change, agree that change with the buying team and update the approval reference. Reinspection uses the requirement approved for the order.

Packing is part of quality

The right glove.
The right destination.

Before the order is packed, align the approved unit presentation with the assortment. A correct glove with the wrong size label or the wrong carton identification creates an avoidable receiving problem.

Provide the label copy, artwork files, barcode requirements if applicable, packing configuration and carton marks with their current versions. State whether assortments are grouped by style, color, size or another agreed combination.

Our packing and carton checks follow these order instructions. Any destination-specific documentation or testing requirement should be discussed before production, with the exact product and material scope identified.

Inspection questions

Clear answers before production.

Do you inspect every pair or only a sample of the order?

We carry out full inspection, including every finished pair, with checks across incoming materials, production, finished goods and packing. The agreed product specification defines what is accepted. Any specialist or laboratory testing is specified separately for the relevant material or product.

Does full inspection mean every glove receives every laboratory test?

No. Full inspection of the production order and a laboratory test program have different scopes. Agree the required test, method, product or material coverage and supporting report before production. We do not apply one test result or performance rating to every glove in the collection.

Are dimensions checked on every pair, and how are tolerances set?

Yes. Our own factory checks dimensions on every finished pair. Define the measurement points, method, condition and size range with the buying team, then record the target and allowed variation for each required point. We use the approved specification and physical sample together; values are agreed for the order.

What happens if a finished pair fails inspection?

The nonconforming goods are isolated, reworked in our own factory and reinspected against the agreed requirements. Only accepted goods return to the order assortment. If correction requires a specification change, agree it with the buyer and update the approval reference.

Can we include our own inspection or testing requirements?

Yes. Share the requirements, acceptance criteria, reporting needs and intended inspection arrangements with the brief. Confirm the scope, responsibilities and any effect on cost or timing before the order starts.

Which packing details should be approved?

Confirm the style, color and size identification, artwork and label versions, pairs per pack, carton configuration, assortment and carton marks. Include any destination-specific wording or documentation in the order file.

How do we define acceptable material or color variation?

Use agreed physical references and written criteria for the selected material. Identify the color and finish, and review the two gloves as a pair where appearance matters. Keep the accepted references with the sample so the decision does not depend only on a screen image.

What should a useful inspection record contain?

Agree the record needed for your order before production. Identify the style, color, size, sample and specification versions, the points checked, actual observations and the acceptance decision. Record any required correction and the follow-up review clearly.

Does a later artwork change need another approval?

Yes. Identify the new file and review the changed wording, dimensions, placement or application against the intended glove and packing. Confirm which styles and destinations use it, and update the production instructions so earlier versions are not treated as current.

Can a previous approval cover a changed material on a reorder?

Do not assume that it does. Identify the proposed substitution and review its effect on appearance, construction, fit, function and labeling as applicable. Agree the revised sample or assessment needed and update the approval file before production.
