Our Quality Approach
At Table-Wares, quality control is integrated into every stage of stainless steel cutlery and tableware production. We focus on process control rather than final inspection only, since variations in quality usually originate from material selection, forming, and polishing processes.
Our objective is to maintain stable batch-to-batch consistency for long-term cooperation with importers, wholesalers, and brand owners.
Production Quality Control System
We operate a stage-based QC system aligned with the manufacturing flow of stainless steel tableware.
Incoming Material Inspection (IQC)
Stainless steel grade verification (SUS304 / SUS430 / SUS201 depending on specification)
01
In-Process Control (IPQC)
Monitoring stamping, forming, welding, and polishing conditions
02
Finished Product Inspection (FQC)
Size tolerance, surface finish, weight consistency
03
Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI)
sampling inspection based on AQL standard commonly used in export trade
04
Packaging Inspection
Carton strength, inner protection, labeling accuracy
05
Materials Used
We mainly use SUS304, SUS430, and SUS201 stainless steel depending on product structure and market requirements.
Material selection is based on application, durability expectations, and cost requirements across different markets.
Key characteristics:
• Suitable for food-contact applications
• Different corrosion resistance levels by grade
• Different hardness and forming performance
• Recyclable stainless steel material
Compliance & Certification Support
Our production processes align with international food-contact and export compliance requirements for stainless steel tableware.
We cooperate with third-party testing organizations such as SGS, TÜV, and Bureau Veritas when certification reports are required for specific markets or customers.
Main standards include:
• ISO 9001 Quality Management System
• ISO 14001 Environmental Management System
• FDA food contact requirements (USA)
• LFGB food safety standard (Germany / EU market)
• EU Regulation (EC) 1935/2004 for food contact materials
• REACH chemical compliance requirements
Product Testing
Product testing is carried out during development and production stages to evaluate stability and performance under normal usage conditions.
Typical tests include:
• Salt spray test (corrosion resistance)
• Surface finish inspection (mirror / matte / brushed)
• Dishwasher resistance test (selected product lines)
• Hardness and structural strength testing
• Chemical composition analysis (when required by market or customer)
Production Traceability
Each production batch is assigned a traceable batch number, covering the full process from raw materials to final packaging.
Records include:
• Raw material batches
• Production process records
• Machine and operator information
• QC inspection results
• Packing and shipment documents
OEM / ODM Production Control
For OEM and ODM orders, production follows approved samples and confirmed specifications.
Key control points include:
• Sample approval before mass production
• Consistency control during production
• Logo engraving and finishing alignment
• Final inspection before shipment
Packaging & Export Handling
Packaging is designed according to export requirements to reduce risks during long-distance transportation.
Common controls include:
• Carton strength testing
• Drop test verification
• Inner protection design (tray / bag / divider depending on product)
• Label and barcode checking
• Container loading supervision when required
Packaging solutions are adjusted based on shipping method and customer requirements.
Cooperation Focus
We work with importers, wholesalers, and brand owners who require stable stainless steel tableware supply for long-term sourcing. Our cooperation focus includes:
- Stable production capacity for bulk orders
- Batch-to-batch consistency
- Clear communication during production stages
- Predictable delivery planning
