RECEIVING

Our production process starts with the receiving of fabric from Asphodel Intl own factory & others. In order to ensure

quality in each aspect Asphodel Intl imports almost 90% of the accessories in our production.

Quality Inspection:

Quality is assured at the onset of our production process through:

• Comprehensive quality inspection of all accessories.
• Rejecting all defective fabric & accessories.

CUTTING:

The graded fabric are then sent to the Cutting Department where cutting is carried out with the help of Card Board Patterns.

The panels of each garment are then numbered in order to ensure quality & eradicate mixing of different panel

Quality Inspection:

Quality Inspectors check these numbered panels to validate the cutting quality of garments. The numbering inspection is

carried out by:

• Laying out all panels of a garment on a table.
• Checking the matching, shading, size, & quality of all panels
• Checking the marking on all panels

STITCHING (soft shell jacket uk):

The Stitching Department receives the numbered panels, which are then stitched through a highly efficient & specialized

Chain-system. Optimum utilization of work specialization is achieved by assigning the stitching of different parts to

each link in the chain.

On-line Quality Inspection

Strict measures are taken for assuring quality at each step of the stitching process. These measures are:

• Regular production of garments only begins once the first piece made has been checked and approved
• Each relevant line-checker ensures 100% inspection of all garments.

FINISHING:

Stitched garments are received at the Finishing Department for which Asphodel Intl has assigned.  Finishing of garments

is carried out through various operations like buttoning, sewing, riveting, lining, ironing & trimming.

Quality Inspection

The Finishing Department is one of the most crucial stages for ensuring production quality. Quality inspectors ensure that:

• All garments are thoroughly checked from all aspects inclusive of material, stitching, styling, accessories, & finish.
• Any garment found non-conforming to the set quality standards are sent back for rework

PACKING & SHIPPING:

Asphodel Intl has a highly modern packing facility in which garments can be shipped either way i.e. flat pack in cartons

or hanging by sea and even hanging by air. Our systematic shipping procedures ensure that we have the capability to send

shipments to any market in the world by taking the shortest possible time.

Final Quality Inspection:

• Before packing, our in-house Quality Inspectors again re-check each garment for its material quality, stitching,  finishing, tagging, marking, etc.

Random Quality Inspection:

In addition to quality inspection, concerning the minutest details, Quality Inspectors have been appointed who randomly

check a garment at any stage of production, even when garments are packed and ready for shipping. The quality attributes

that are checked depend upon the stage of garment production.
