- Factory existence confirmation
- Document verification, including certificates, Business license, bank accounts
- Basic production capacity review, checking whether your interested product is produced by the factory, or is outsourced
- Contact person verification
Factory Audit
A deeper evaluation of a supplier's capabilities, including:
- Production capacity and facilities
- Quality control system assessment
- Raw material and process checks
Social Compliance Audit
Ensuring ethical production practices by evaluating:
- Labor conditions and workplace safety
- Environmental policies
- Compliance with social responsibility standards

How V-Trust Helps You Control Packaging Equipment & Materials Quality?
V-Trust offers comprehensive quality control services for packaging products, covering every stage of the production process. Our services include Sample Check,During Production Inspection, Pre-Shipment Inspection, Production Monitoring, and Container Loading Supervision, ensuring consistent product quality and compliance at every step.
Sample Check
Our engineers conduct a thorough evaluation of your packaging product samples, assessing quality, safety, functionality, and specifications in V-Trust’s lab. This helps in comparing items from different suppliers, enabling a swift and informed decision.
During Production Inspection
An inspector visits the factory when 30-50% of production is completed to detect defects early, prevent costly errors, and ensure production is on schedule.
Pre-Shipment Inspection
The inspector will go to the factory when the whole production is finished. It’s a final check to verify:
- Product quality and compliance
- Functionality, safety, performance, and internal construction
- Product specifications
- Secure and regulatory-compliant packaging
- Accurate quantities
- Marking & labeling
Production Monitoring
Continuous oversight by inspectors ensures adherence to quality standards. Corrective action plans help improve the factory’s overall quality management system.
Container Loading Supervision
Inspectors ensure correct packaging, labeling, and shipment quantities before dispatch. They also check the container’s condition for damage, holes, and acceptable humidity levels.

Some Important Checks on Different Types of Packaging Equipment & Materials
V-Trust conducts detailed inspections tailored to the unique characteristics of packaging equipment and materials. Our process is built upon industry best practices and a comprehensive checklist to ensure that every aspect of your machinery is thoroughly evaluated. Key inspection checkpoints include:
Packaging Equipment:
We verify the overall mechanical integrity by examining the machine's structure, electrical components, control panels, wiring, motors, belts, pulleys, gears, and moving parts. We also assess the integration of automation features and safety systems to ensure reliable, continuous operation.
Filling & Sealing Machines:
Our inspections focus on the accuracy and consistency of the filling process, sealing performance, and operational speed. We check for proper alignment, functionality of pneumatic or hydraulic systems, and the condition of seals, valves, and other critical components.
Labeling & Coding Systems:
We evaluate the precision of label placement, print quality, adhesive performance, and durability under varying environmental conditions. Calibration of digital interfaces and responsiveness of control systems are also verified.
Conveyor Systems & Cartoning Machines:
We assess the structural stability, load capacity, and alignment of conveyors and cartoning systems. This includes monitoring speed regulation, noise levels, vibration, and overall integration with your production line.
Packaging Materials:
Our evaluations cover material strength, moisture resistance, and design consistency. We ensure that all materials—from corrugated boxes and plastic bags to shrink films and protective cushioning—meet regulatory standards and sustainability criteria.
Shrink Films & Protective Materials:
We inspect film thickness, shrink consistency, and overall performance in protecting products during transit. We also verify that packaging instructions, quality documentation, and calibration settings are properly implemented to maximize material efficiency.
By incorporating over 20 specific checkpoints—from structural and electrical safety tests to performance, noise, vibration, and maintenance checks—V-Trust's comprehensive inspection services help mitigate risks, prevent costly downtime, and ensure that your packaging machinery consistently meets international quality and safety standards.
In addition to the above aspects, we’re happy to listen to your requirements & concerns, and carry out a tailor-made checking plan according to your own testing plan and inspection requirements.
Packaging Equipment & Materials Common Defects Found During Product Inspections
During our inspections, V-Trust frequently identifies defects that can compromise the performance, safety, and durability of your packaging equipment and materials. Common issues include:
Structural Defects:
Cracks, loose fasteners, misaligned components, and worn-out belts or gears that can lead to operational failures.
Electrical & Control Issues:
Faulty wiring, malfunctioning control panels, sensor errors, and calibration drifts that affect machine performance and consistency.
Sealing & Filling Problems:
Inconsistent filling volumes, weak or incomplete seals, leakage in filling and sealing machines, and misaligned components causing quality issues.
Labeling & Coding Errors:
Poor label placement, low print quality, and adhesive failures that can affect product traceability and brand integrity.
Material Deficiencies:
Degradation of packaging materials, inconsistent film thickness, moisture absorption, and quality variations that compromise protection and sustainability.
Safety & Operational Concerns:
Excessive noise, vibration, overheating, and inadequate safety guards that may increase downtime and pose risks to operators.
