Inspection Basis

The approved specification, sample and agreed checklist—not a generic visual check.

Inspection Scope

Inspection is conducted against the agreed scope and sampling approach. It does not mean every individual unit is checked unless this is specifically agreed.

Inspection Timing

Inspect at the Point Where Action Is Still Possible.

The right inspection stage depends on the product, production status and risk. Some projects require one inspection point; higher-risk orders may benefit from checks during production and again before shipment.

INSPECTION POINT 01

During Production Inspection

Checks completed units and work in progress while production is still underway, giving the supplier time to investigate and correct recurring issues.

Best Used When

The order is complex, high-risk or showing early concerns.

Supports

Earlier corrective action before full completion.

INSPECTION POINT 02

Pre-Shipment Inspection

Checks substantially completed goods against the agreed requirements before the shipment is approved and released.

Best Used When

Goods are complete and available for representative sampling.

Supports

The buyer's final shipment decision.

Inspection Scope

Furniture Is Checked Against What You Approved.

The checklist is built from the approved specifications, drawings, sample, packaging requirements and order details. The inspection is not based on a generic visual standard.

01

Product & Order Match

Model, colour, material, configuration, quantity, labels and other order identifiers are checked against the agreed product and order information.

Quantity and identity findings

02

Workmanship & Finish

Visible surfaces, colour consistency, scratches, stains, seams, edges, joints and other workmanship details are reviewed within the agreed scope.

Recorded As

Defects with photographs

03

Dimensions, Structure & Function

Key dimensions, assembly, stability, hardware, moving parts and basic product functions are checked using the approved requirements and checklist.

Recorded As

Measurements and function results

04

Packaging & Marking

Cartons, protective materials, hardware packs, instructions, product labels and shipping marks are reviewed against the approved packing details.

Sampling & Defect Classification

A Defined Sampling Plan Makes the Result Clearer.

The inspection lot, sample size, checklist and defect criteria are confirmed before inspection. This makes the report traceable without suggesting that every individual unit was examined.

01

Confirm the Inspection Lot

Record the available quantity, production status and packaging condition.

02

Select the Sample

Choose units according to the sampling method and scope agreed for the order.

03

Inspect & Classify Findings

Check the sampled units and record findings against the defined defect criteria.

04

Report Against the Criteria

Present the sample information, findings, photographs and inspection conclusion.

Defect Classification

Critical

A finding that may create a safety, regulatory or other unacceptable risk, as defined by the agreed inspection criteria.

Major

A finding that may materially affect product use, function, appearance, assembly or commercial acceptability.

Minor

A smaller deviation that does not normally prevent intended use but still differs from the approved requirement or workmanship standard.

Inspection Report & Action

The Report Turns Findings Into a Shipment Decision.

Inspection evidence is organised so you can understand what was checked, what was found and which points may require action before shipment.

What the Report Shows

A structured record of the inspected lot, sample and agreed checklist.

01

Lot & Sample Details

Available quantity, production status, sample size and inspection conditions.

02

Photographs & Defect Log

Product photographs, identified issues and defect classifications with context.

03

Measurements & Checks

Recorded dimensions, function checks and other results required by the checklist.

04

Packaging & Quantity Findings

Carton condition, packing components, marks, labels and quantity observations.

05

Inspection Conclusion

A conclusion stated against the sampling plan and acceptance criteria agreed in advance.

Quality Inspection FAQ

Practical Questions Before the Goods Are Inspected.

These answers explain inspection timing, sampling, checklists and what happens when the inspected goods do not meet the agreed requirements.

01 When Should a Furniture Inspection Be Arranged?

Inspection may be arranged during production when early correction is important, or before shipment when substantially completed goods are available. The timing is confirmed against the production schedule and risk.

02 Does the Inspector Check Every Individual Unit?

Not unless a 100% inspection is specifically agreed. Most inspections use an agreed sampling method. The report records the inspection lot, sample size and findings without representing uninspected units as individually checked.

03 Who Defines the Inspection Checklist?

The checklist is prepared from the buyer-approved specifications, drawings, samples, packaging requirements and known risks. The scope and acceptance criteria are aligned before the inspection begins.

04 What Does a Furniture Quality Inspection Cover?

The agreed scope may include product identity, quantity, workmanship, finish, dimensions, assembly, stability, basic function, packaging, labels and shipping marks. The exact checks depend on the product brief.

05 Does Furniture Inspection Include Laboratory Testing?

Not automatically. Load, safety, chemical, compliance or other laboratory testing must be separately defined, quoted and coordinated when required by the product, market or buyer.

06 Can Lemot Inspect Goods from a Supplier We Selected?

Yes, subject to the supplier's location, site access, cooperation, production status and the inspection scope being confirmed in advance.

07 What Happens If the Inspection Finds Problems?

Lemot shares the documented findings and can help coordinate supplier clarification, sorting, correction, rework or reinspection according to the agreed service scope. The buyer retains the final shipment decision.

08 Does a Passed Sampling Inspection Guarantee Every Unit?

No. A sampling inspection reports conditions found in the inspected sample and lot at that time. It reduces uncertainty but cannot guarantee that every uninspected unit is free from defects.
