Shipping & packing

Shipping & Packing

Every order leaves with a packing list that matches the cartons on the floor: measurable carton data per style, one document set, and terms agreed before production starts.

Shenzhen / Guangzhou Loading port
EXW · FOB · CIF Terms quoted
Every style Carton data

01 / Packing standard

Built for a container, not a courier bag.

Standard export packing is included in the unit price. Anything beyond it is quoted line by line.

01

Inner pack

One case per polybag with a size sticker, hangtag attached at the label position.

02

Master carton

Five-ply corrugated, taped and strapped, marked with style, colour, quantity and carton number.

03

Loading

Cartons palletised on request or floor-loaded; mixed styles consolidated so one container carries the whole order.

02 / Carton data

Carton data, by style.

The numbers a freight quote needs. Final figures are confirmed on the proforma invoice.

Swipe the table sideways for loading figures.

Container figures assume 28 m³ usable in a 20′ GP and 68 m³ in a 40′ HQ, loaded by the piece. Retail box packing reduces the quantity per carton by roughly 15%.

03 / Documents

One document set per shipment.

Sent to you and to your broker as they are issued, not collected after the fact.

Commercial invoice & packing list
Issued with every order, broken down to carton level so the count matches the container.
Certificate of origin
Applied for when the destination or your customs broker requires it.
Product test documentation
The CTI report we hold is supplied on request; testing with a buyer-nominated laboratory is arranged before production.
Shipping documents
Booking confirmation, bill of lading or airway bill, and the forwarder release, sent as issued.

We quote EXW, FOB and CIF. When you need a landed cost, DDP can be quoted through our forwarder.

04 / Samples & small orders

Samples fly. Orders sail.

Samples
DHL or FedEx on your account, collected from Guangzhou. Two to four days to most markets.
Less than a container
LCL consolidation through Shenzhen, booked against your forwarder or ours.
Full container
FCL from Shenzhen or Guangzhou; photo record of the load and the container number are sent before departure.

05 / Inspection & acceptance

Agreed before the first carton is packed.

The AQL levels are written into the proforma invoice, so nobody is guessing at the loading dock.

Defect class AQL What it covers
Critical 0 Sharp edges, broken hardware, wrong safety labelling — anything that fails the destination market's rules.
Major 2.5 Open seams, broken stitching, wrong colour or logo position, a zipper that will not run.
Minor 4.0 Loose threads, light marks on the lining, measurement drift inside the agreed tolerance.

Sampling follows ISO 2859-1 / ANSI/ASQ Z1.4, general inspection level II, single sampling, normal severity.

Who inspects
Your nominated third party — SGS, BV, TÜV, QIMA or a local agent — or our own QC. A third-party fee is on your account; we open the cartons, provide the space and the staff to count.
When
After 100% packing and before the container is loaded. Book at least three working days ahead; nothing is loaded until the result is released.
What is checked
Measurements against the approved sample, colour against the approved lab dip, stitching and hardware, logo placement, carton marks, and a full count.
If the lot fails
We sort and rework, then re-inspect before shipping. Sorting and rework are at our cost; a re-inspection by your third party is billed to you.
Small orders
Below the minimum order quantity, we offer a live video count and walkthrough in place of a paid inspection, if you prefer.

We hold no third-party factory certifications. These inspection terms are what we offer in place of them. See what we can and cannot document.
