Buyer FAQ

Questions sourcing teams usually ask

Why is packaging part of manufacturing QC?

For fire pits, packaging protects heavy or surface-sensitive products during long-distance export shipping and retail distribution.

What QC records should buyers ask for?

Ask for sample approval files, in-process photos, final inspection reports, packaging photos and container loading records when needed.
