Inspection

In today’s global economy, inspection involves verifying on-site that a product, asset or system meets specified criteria; performing inspection services as a TPI (third-party inspection) is essential as the different finish goods for our industry most likely endured a long journey from their point of origin to their final destination; final users are often far removed from where their products are produced, making it both important and challenging to ensure their interests are being well protected and products are of the highest quality possible.

We carry out inspections prior to shipment, minimizing the risk of defective products and safeguarding the reputation of manufacturers and retailers, our independent third-party inspection services cover all aspects of quality and HSE.
