AQL Inspection in Garment and Fabric Manufacturing
topic
Acceptable quality level inspection in garment manufacturing classifies defects as critical, major, and minor with different AQL values typically 0.0, 2.5, and 4.0 respectively, inspecting random garment samples against defined defect classification criteria and using four-point or ten-point fabric grading systems to assign numerical scores to fabric roll quality based on defect frequency and severity.
Role
Provides the standardised defect classification and sampling framework used by global fashion brands and retailers for pre-shipment inspection of garment production orders, enabling consistent lot acceptance decisions across diverse supplier factories and geographies based on commonly understood and verifiable quality standards.
