Factory Audit & Product Inspection in China
Verify a supplier’s production environment. Check products against your order requirements. Yoursender coordinates on-the-ground factory assessments and product inspections in China, with clear scopes, photo evidence and practical findings before you commit or ship.
Choose the verification that matches your sourcing stage. We confirm the checklist, sampling approach and deliverables before the assignment begins.

Quantity, assortment and model verification
Appearance, workmanship and key dimensions
Functional checks based on product requirements
Packaging, carton marks, labels and barcode checks
Defect classification and supporting photographs
Inspection summary and recommended next steps
Why verify before you proceed?
Find issues while you still have options.
A supplier quotation or online profile cannot show every detail of a production site. A factory visit can help you understand the facility, equipment and quality processes observed on the day. Product inspection can identify sampled defects, packaging discrepancies or functional issues before goods leave the factory.
Our role is to perform the checks agreed with you, record what is observed and communicate the findings. An audit or inspection is a point-in-time assessment. It does not guarantee future production performance or eliminate every possible risk.

Real production-floor photographs
These photographs show a partner-factory production area. They are shared as an example of the type of manufacturing environment that may be documented during a factory visit; they are not presented as photographs of Palaza or as an independently verified audit result.

Explore a Palaza factory VR tour
The following is a separate factory reference shared for visitors who want to explore a manufacturing site virtually. It is not the source of the two partner-factory photographs above.
Palaza’s own factory profile describes its business in gardening products and accessories and provides a virtual factory tour. Any company background, facility size, workforce, equipment or capacity figures shown in that tour are factory-provided statements, not Yoursender audit findings or independent verification.

LED Nail Lamp · 4,500-unit order
The supplied report records a pre-shipment inspection dated September 10, 2025, for LED nail lamp model BQ5T. The report states that 200 units were sampled under ANSI/ASQ Z1.4-2008, Single Sampling Plan, General Inspection Level II.

PassedConclusion recorded in report
What the report recorded
Critical defects: 0
Major defects: 2 — one detached base magnet and one carton damage finding
Minor defects: 2 — product stains
Checks included function, appearance, product and packaging, barcode, dimensions, weight, charging-cable length and a four-hour operating test.
Important: This was a sampling inspection, not a 100% inspection. The “Passed” conclusion reflects the report’s stated sampling plan and acceptance limits; it does not mean every unit was checked or that every unit was defect-free. This nail-lamp case is separate from the Palaza factory-tour example.

Frequently asked questions
Factory audit & product inspection FAQs
What is included in a China factory audit?
A factory audit can cover company and facility information, production equipment and processes, workforce and capacity observations, quality-control procedures and documented findings. The exact checklist is agreed before the visit.
What does a pre-shipment inspection check?
Depending on the agreed scope, a pre-shipment inspection can check sampled product appearance, workmanship, function, quantity, packaging, labels and barcodes against your order requirements.
Does an AQL inspection check every unit?
No. AQL-based inspection uses a defined sample from a lot. The result describes the sample and acceptance decision under the agreed sampling plan; it is not a 100% inspection and cannot guarantee that every unit is defect-free.
Can you inspect a supplier before I place an order?
Yes. A factory audit or supplier assessment can be scoped before an order. Share the supplier details and the capabilities or risks you want assessed.
Can inspection include product testing or certification?
Basic functional checks may be included when agreed in the checklist. Third-party laboratory testing, product certification and specialist compliance assessments are separate services unless explicitly included in the agreed scope.
