How RSJ’s DUPRO (During‑Production) Inspection Safeguards Textile & Apparel Quality
Introduction
In the fast‑moving world of textile and apparel manufacturing, a single unnoticed flaw can snowball into hundreds or thousands of defective garments. That’s why RSJ Responsible Value Creation has introduced DUPRO – a “During Production” inspection service that catches problems while the line is still running. In just under two minutes, the new RSJ video walks you through how DUPRO works, why it matters, and what benefits you can expect.
Watch the video:
Why Early Defect Detection Is Critical
- One defect = many losses – A single missed stitch, color mismatch, or fabric flaw can be reproduced across dozens of rolls, turning a minor issue into a massive recall.
- Cost escalation – Late‑stage rework, shipping delays, and wasted material quickly erode profit margins.
- Brand reputation – Consumers notice quality lapses; a single bad batch can damage a label’s image for years.
DUPRO’s core promise is simple: detect defects before they propagate.
How DUPRO Works
| Step | What Happens | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1️⃣ On‑Site Inspection | Trained RSJ inspectors travel to your factory and follow a detailed, standardized protocol. | Guarantees hands‑on, unbiased assessment directly where production occurs. |
| 2️⃣ International‑Standard AQL | Inspections are anchored to globally accepted Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) thresholds. | Provides a consistent benchmark that buyers and suppliers both trust. |
| 3️⃣ Real‑Time Reporting | Findings are logged instantly, complete with high‑resolution photos and clear descriptions. | Enables immediate corrective action and creates a transparent audit trail. |
| 4️⃣ Proactive Quality Control | Issues are flagged while the line is still active, allowing operators to fix problems on the spot. | Prevents defect multiplication and reduces downstream rework. |
| 5️⃣ Final Verification | Before the batch ships, RSJ confirms that all units meet the agreed‑upon quality criteria. | Gives you confidence that the finished product is ready for market. |
