Why do you and your clients need quality insurance services?

Quality control determines whether a company and its suppliers can work together successfully.

What is critical defects, major defects and minor defects?

Defects found in inspection are classified into three categories: critical defects, major defects and minor defects:

1) Critical defects

Critical defects could result in hazardous or unsafe conditions for individuals using or maintaining the product, as well as defects contravening legal regulations.

2) Major defects

Major defects may shorten the product’s life or reduce the ability to use the item (poor functioning, item incomplete or broken, etc.), or give it a flawed appearance that affects its value.

3) Minor defects

Minor defects usually do not affect normal use, but the product quality may be slightly degraded.
