Inspection Company in Chennai — Leather, Auto & Home Textiles
Independent QC for leather goods, footwear, Sriperumbudur auto components and Karur bedlinen. Chennai Port and Kattupalli loading supervision. AQL reports in 24 hours.
Why Chennai Needs Specialist QC
Chennai is India's industrial south — leather (Vaniyambadi, Ranipet, Ambur), auto components (Sriperumbudur, Oragadam) and home textiles (Karur, Erode) — supplying Hyundai, Renault, Ford, Clarks, Decathlon, IKEA and hundreds of US/EU buyers.
Distinct disciplines are required: tannery and leather goods specialists, OEM-grade auto inspectors with metrology training, and textile QCs for Karur bedlinen — all in the same metro region.
Our Chennai team has each discipline on roster, with same-day scheduling across all three sub-clusters and direct port loading supervision capability.

Chennai Inspection — FAQs
What does Chennai specialise in for inspections?
Chennai is India's #1 hub for finished leather (Vaniyambadi, Ranipet, Ambur), leather footwear, leather gloves, auto components (Sriperumbudur), and home textiles (Karur). We have a permanent inspection team there with category specialists for each line.
Do you inspect leather and leather goods in Chennai?
Yes. The Chennai-Vaniyambadi-Ranipet leather cluster is the world's largest. We verify substance (mm), grain quality, finish, area measurement, chrome VI residue documentation (ISO 17075), and tannery LWG (Leather Working Group) compliance.
Can you inspect at Sriperumbudur auto-component cluster?
Yes. Our Chennai team conducts TIER-1 supplier inspections at Sriperumbudur, Oragadam and Maraimalai Nagar — drawing-tolerance verification, surface treatment, dimensional metrology, and PPAP-style first-article inspection support for OEM exports.
Do you supervise container loading at Chennai Port and Kattupalli?
Yes. We supervise loading at the factory, at Chennai Port and at Kattupalli — verifying carton count, loading sequence, container condition and seal integrity, with full photo log for shipping docs and L/C compliance.
What does a PSI cost in Chennai?
Standard pre-shipment inspection in Chennai is $230–$290 per man-day with 24-hour photo report. Most leather/footwear orders need 1 man-day per 1,500–3,000 pcs; auto-component inspections vary by complexity.
How does your Chennai service compare to QIMA, SGS, Bureau Veritas and Intertek?
Global firms charge $300–$450 per man-day in Chennai with 5–7 day lead times. We deliver the same ISO 2859-1 (AQL) inspection at $230–$290 per man-day with 24-hour reports and 24–48 hour scheduling — saving 30–40% with deeper India-specific leather and auto-component expertise.
