Inspections during production | Quality inspections ensure that products meet the specific requirements of their designs. Our inspection services can verify the quality and quantity of the materials while ensuring that the packaging conforms to the buyers’ requirements. TÜV SÜD can also monitor the production process itself. These onsite inspections are performed at production sites and suppliers’ premises according to the sampling procedures described in NSI / ASQ Z.1.4 – 2003, BS 6001 (AQL), NFX 06-022, ISO 2859- 1:1999 and DIN 40.080.

Inspections in transit | Besides ensuring the quality of raw materials and production processes, TÜV SÜD’s inspection team can also monitor the transit and transportation of product on shipment to the client. We inspect containers for cleanliness and suitability besides checking consignments to ensure that they conform to the client’s specifications. We can also perform an additional inspection on shipments to verify that they correspond to the quantity, size and colour on the packing list. This additional checkpoint can help avoid costly shipping mistakes and misrouted consignments. |
Inspections at retail points | The final quality check for any toy is at the retail point. Here, TÜV SÜD’s “Anonymous Mystery Shopper” inspectors take random or pre-designated samples of products on shelves to conduct various toxicity and mechanical tests on the product, thus ensuring that they meet the same requirements as they did in our laboratories. |
