Quality Control · QC-01

Quality Compliance

Every confirmed specification is translated into measurable inspection criteria. We coordinate production checks, batch testing, documentation, packaging verification, and traceability with qualified partner plants before shipment.

Inspection Workflow · Five Stages

Quality Inspection Process

Inspection begins with the written order specification. The applicable limits, sampling method, reporting requirements, and acceptance basis are confirmed before production or dispatch.

Inspection Basis

The final purchase contract and approved specification take precedence over indicative website data, sample documents, and preliminary discussions.

  1. 01 Pre-Production

    Specification Confirmation

    Product grade, target chemistry, permitted tolerances, particle size, quantity, packaging, and required documents are recorded for technical confirmation.

  2. 02 Production

    Process Control

    The partner plant controls raw materials, production parameters, and lot separation according to the confirmed manufacturing route.

  3. 03 Laboratory

    Sampling And Analysis

    Representative samples are prepared and analyzed for the agreed primary elements and controlled impurities using applicable laboratory methods.

  4. 04 Release

    Result Review

    Recorded results are compared with the accepted specification. Deviations are reviewed before the batch is approved for dispatch.

  5. 05

    Documentation And Shipment Verification

    The applicable MTR or COA, package marks, quantities, and shipping references are checked against the released batch before delivery.

    Batch Released

Batch Record · MTR

Manufacturer Test Report Documentation

A Manufacturer Test Report records the tested properties of a production batch. Depending on the product and agreed documentation scope, the report may be issued by the manufacturing plant or supported by an independent laboratory report.

Report formats vary by partner plant. The required report language, test items, and customer references should be confirmed before order placement.

Document Structure · MTR-01

What An MTR May Contain

Product Identification
Product name, grade, specification, and production reference.
Batch Information
Lot number, test date, quantity, and manufacturing reference.
Chemical Results
Measured values for specified elements and controlled impurities.
Acceptance Criteria
Agreed minimum, maximum, or target ranges for each test item.
Authorized Validation
Laboratory, inspector, issuer, stamp, or electronic approval details.
Customer Reference
Purchase order or contract reference when agreed and available.

Independent Verification · TP-01

Third-Party Testing

Independent inspection can be coordinated when required by the customer, contract, destination market, or internal supplier approval process. The inspection scope and cost must be agreed before testing.

Pre-Shipment Inspection

Verification may cover quantity, package condition, markings, document consistency, and agreed visual checks before dispatch.

Independent Laboratory Analysis

Retained or independently collected samples may be submitted for chemical testing by a mutually accepted laboratory.

Witnessed Sampling

Sampling can be witnessed or performed by an appointed inspector when chain-of-custody control is required.

Defined Inspection Scope

Test items, methods, laboratory selection, report format, timing, and acceptance criteria are documented before appointment.

Specification Control · CH-01

Chemical Composition Commitments

Chemical commitments are based on the specification accepted in writing for each order. Standard grades, customer-specified ranges, and fully custom chemistries require different confirmation and validation routes.

Supply Level Specification Basis Verification Route Release Condition
Standard Grade Published or mutually recognized grade limits. Routine batch analysis and applicable plant documentation. Within Grade
Specified Range Customer-selected values within confirmed production capability. Written technical review and batch comparison against agreed limits. Contract Check
Custom Chemistry Customer-defined element targets subject to plant feasibility. Technical confirmation, trial production, sample testing, and scale-up review. Trial Validation

Primary Elements

Main alloying elements are controlled according to the confirmed grade or customer specification.

Restricted Impurities

Applicable limits for carbon, sulfur, phosphorus, silicon, titanium, or other impurities are stated explicitly.

Deviation Handling

A batch outside the agreed acceptance criteria is not represented as compliant without written customer review.

Labeled industrial packaging prepared for batch traceability

Logistics Control · PK-01

Packaging And Traceability

Packaging is selected according to product form, shipment size, handling conditions, and the confirmed order. Marks and references are checked to preserve identification from the production batch through shipping documentation.

Packaging Confirmation

  • Bag type and nominal weight
  • Pallet or bulk handling requirements
  • Moisture protection where applicable
  • Customer marking requirements

Traceability References

  • Product and grade identification
  • Batch or lot reference
  • Package number and quantity
  • Contract or shipment reference

Document Linkage

Where supported by the plant and agreed for the order, the batch reference shown on packaging is linked with the corresponding MTR or COA and relevant shipping records.
