2. Quality
Quality is an ideal, a condition of excellence. Product quality is based on a product
attribute. User-based quality is fitness for use, manufacturing based quality is
conformance to requirements, value based quality is the degree of excellence at an
acceptable price.
ISO 9000:2000 Define it is “degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfill
requirement.”
Quality inspection in apparel industries: Quality inspection is done to control quality
of garments. Checking of fabric, sewing thread, button, stitch, zipper, garments size
etc according to required standard or specification is known as inspection. Quality
inspection is important for every section of apparel industries.
There are three steeps in apparel industries to control quality, i.e.
1. Raw Material Inspection
2. in Process Inspection
3. Final Inspection

3. Shirt Quality Check Points

Style
 Style not matching Approval sample, Tech Pack or order
Material Defects
 Fabric Inspection: Normally fabric inspection is done through Fabric
Inspection machine. It is very important for every industries check fabric
before cutting. In fabric inspection their checks several things i.e. in fabric are
there any defect available or not. In fabric, fabric defects viz. off shad or
shade variation, hole in fabric, barre effect etc. can be visual after entering
into the store room. For those defects it will be problem able for making
garments making. In fabric inspection there also check fabric strength, color,
quantity, bayous. To check fabric there are different system i.e. 4 point
system, 10 point system etc.

4. Conclusion

This is a great opportunities for us doing this assignment on quality check. To

complete this project we done our best. We gathered much experience doing this
assignment. we learned how to check quality for manufacturing Men’s shirt, process
flowchart for garments manufacturing and quality check point. We understood
inspection methodology for sewing finishing and packing.
