A Container Loading Check is the final step in the manufacturing process. Ensure that the final details of your product are correct and actual ordered quantity securely loaded onto your container, before signing off and settling final payment.
Container Loading Check (CLC)
What is a Container Loading Check (CLC)?
During a Container Loading Check, your inspector will select boxes at random to confirm each carton bears the quantity of product ordered, the quality matches the specifications and/or approved sample provided by you, and that all packaging material contains the correct barcodes, labeling, and packing materials. The entire container loading process is strictly supervised; ensuring all product paid for makes it on the truck. A CLC reduces risk of damage during shipment.
For all inspections, QIMA uses the standard internationally recognized ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 (ISO 2859-1) statistical sampling procedure. These comprehensive criteria cover: functionality, performance, durability, overall appearance, and dimension. Inspection certificates are issued if stipulated in the letter of credit.
