Furniture Inspection FAQs
What is furniture inspection in India?βΎ
Furniture inspection is an independent on-site QC at Indian furniture factories to verify construction, finish, dimensions, hardware, packing and compliance with safety standards before container loading. We use AQL 2.5 for majors and AQL 4.0 for minors, plus 100% functional testing on hinged/moving parts.
Which Indian cities are best for furniture sourcing and inspection?βΎ
Jodhpur (solid wood, sheesham, mango wood), Saharanpur (carved wood, panel furniture), Moradabad (metal & iron furniture), Jaipur (painted, distressed wood), Delhi NCR (mixed media, contract furniture) and Mumbai (premium / luxury). We have inspector coverage in all six hubs.
Do you inspect for CARB Phase 2 / TSCA Title VI formaldehyde compliance?βΎ
Yes. We verify CARB / TSCA certificates from particleboard, MDF and plywood suppliers, witness label printing, and coordinate emission tests via accredited labs (SGS, Intertek, TUV) when required for US-bound shipments.
What about EN 1335, EN 14749 and BIFMA testing for office furniture?βΎ
We coordinate functional and durability testing per EN 1335 (office chairs), EN 14749 (storage units), BIFMA X5.1 (office seating) and BIFMA X5.5 (desks) at accredited Indian labs. The inspection report includes test certificates and witness photos.
How is container loading supervision done for furniture?βΎ
Our supervisor is on-site during stuffing, verifies carton count, checks for transit damage protection (foam corners, edge protectors, blanket wrap for high-value items), photographs the loading sequence, seals the container and uploads the seal number with the report.
