Quality Control

Nothing Leaves Our Factory Without Proof

Every piece passes through 4 inspection stages before it reaches you. Here’s exactly what we check — and how.


4-Stage Inspection Process

From raw material arrival to final packing — nothing is assumed, everything is verified.

Raw material inspection
Stage 01

Raw Material Inspection

Moisture content testing — every batch measured. Target: 6–8%. Rejected if above 12%.
Grade classification — visual inspection for knots, cracks, colour consistency. Only select-grade heartwood.
Certificate verification — FSC® chain-of-custody docs cross-checked against lot numbers.
Leather inspection — thickness measurement, grain consistency, natural blemish count per hide.

Stage 02

Finished Product Inspection

Every piece opened and inspected — not random sampling. 100% inspection rate.
Surface quality — scratches, dents, finish uniformity checked under directional lighting.
Structural integrity — joints, connections, weight-bearing points stress-tested.
Dimensional accuracy — measurements verified against spec sheet (±2mm tolerance).
Repair & re-inspect — any issue repaired on-site, then re-checked before passing.

Stage 03

Assembly & Function Inspection

Hardware test — every hinge, handle, and fitting checked for secure attachment.
Drawer slides — smooth operation, full extension, weight load tested.
Door alignment — open/close 50 cycles. Gap uniformity measured.
Shelf stability — loaded to rated capacity, checked for deflection.
Wobble test — placed on flat surface, checked for rocking.

Stage 04

Packaging Standards & Drop Test

We don’t just pack and hope. We pack and test.

Packaging Standards

● Multi-layer: foam → cardboard → corner guards → outer carton
● Reinforced corner protectors on all 8 corners
● Soft non-woven fabric between surfaces
● Custom-cut foam inserts prevent internal movement
● Glass/door panels: separate protective layer + FRAGILE marking

Drop Test Protocol

Standard drop — 60cm drop on each face, edge, and corner
Vibration simulation — simulates 45–60 days ocean container vibration
Compression test — stacked 3-high to simulate container stacking
Post-test inspection — package opened, product checked for damage
Result — if damage found, packaging revised and retested

Packing station

Nothing to hide. Everything to show.

We open every step of the process to you.
