8 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How are you different from SGS, TÜV, or other large inspection agencies?
A: We specialize exclusively in the carbon fiber and composites sector. Large agencies cover hundreds of industries – composites is just one small part of their business. Our team comes from a leading carbon fiber manufacturer. We understand the specific quality control points, process characteristics, and common failure modes of carbon fiber products at a much deeper level.
Q2: Does your audit report have legal authority?
A: Our report can be used as quality evidence for contract performance. However, if you require CNAS/CMA-accredited reports with statutory authority, we recommend using an accredited laboratory. We are happy to assist in connecting you with such partners.
Q3: Can you perform remote audits?
A: Yes. For initial assessments or non-critical audits, we can conduct remote audits using video and document reviews to reduce costs. However, we recommend on-site inspection for final pre-shipment checks.
Q4: What qualifications do your auditors hold?
A: Our auditors have extensive hands-on quality management experience in the carbon fiber industry, with deep knowledge of ISO 9001, AS9100, and military standards. They continuously participate in professional training programs.
