4-Gate Inspection Protocol for Embroidery Excellence

We treat embroidery as an exact science. Every design undergoes rigorous inspection steps to eliminate loose threads, alignment drifts, or registration errors before garment assembly.

  • Digitizing Audit: Underlay density and stitch pathing verified to prevent puckering on thin knits.
  • Thread Tension Alignment: Calibrated for exact bobbin-to-top thread balance across multi-head runs.
  • Colorfastness Wash Test: Threads subjected to high-temperature wash trials to prevent dye bleeding.
  • AQL 2.5 Final Audit: Every embroidered unit is hand-trimmed, cleaned, and checked against the approved tech pack.
