1.1 Identifying and checking needed finishing touches
It is realistic to assume that however well checking or quality control procedures operate within a
factory there will always be a certain percentage of garments rejected for some reason or other.
The best way to carry out quality checks is by establishing a standard as a criterion for measuring
quality achievement. Production results can be measured and compared to the planned quality
standard. Corrective measures to be carried out if there are any deviations in the plans. Ideally,
any system should detect possible deviations before they occur through forecasting. Work
produced with minus defects will produce quality products, enhance economy and productivity.
When ordering a number of different sizes of garments are sure to consider how to sort these
garments among shipping cartons. For example, how many women’s dresses of each size small,
medium, large and extra-large should each carton contain? Imagine the frustration of receiving
20 extra-small dresses and only three extra-large dresses when you intended to receive the same
proportion of every size. You can prevent this problem by including assort
For some products, such as promotional goods, the quality of input materials might not
drastically impact salability. But fabric quality is a major determinant of the quality and
salability of the finished product when manufacturing garments. Product testing of your
garments, both on-site and in a qualified laboratory provides assurance that your product meets
your quality standards.
Regardless of your particular requirements, it’s vital that you, your supplier and your inspection
team have a clear understanding of what’s expected. All relevant parties need ready access to
current specifications, inspection criteria and any other quality documents. Be sure to continually
update your product specifications after inspection to reflect any unforeseen quality issues found
during inspection and other changes.
1.2 Marking, checking and attaching accessories and accents.
A garment is made not only from the apparel fabric but also various accessory items. Fabric is
the basic material in garment manufacturing. Except fabric of garment, the other materials are
known as garment accessories. These have to be chosen in such a way that they complement the
outer fabric both aesthetically, in terms of decoration, and practically, in terms of ensuring that
the garment performs as expected in its intended end use. Various kinks of accessories are used
on garments; some are part of the garments such as buttons, zippers, interlining etc. while others
are used for decorating and enhancing the product.

Author/Copyright
1.2.1 Normally garment accessories can be classified in three ways:
Table 1.1: The three type of garment accessories
A. Garment accessories/ B. Decorative A. Finishing
accessories accessories
Basic accessories:
 Thread  Elastic tape
 Zipper  Buttonhole  There are some

tape finishing
 Interlining accessories:
 Piping
 Button for example: Snap button,  Hang tag
Plastic button, .Metal button.  Moiré ribbon
 Price tag
 Label: Main label , Size Label, Wash  Seaming tape
care label  Plastic/ poly bag
 Welted tape
 Motif: Leather, Plastic, batch Metal  Tissue paper
 Ribbed tape
 Pocketing fabric  Carton
 Velvet ribbon
 Pocketing fabric  Scotch tape
 Lining  Tag pin
 Velcro  Plastic clip
 Rivet  Sticker
 Collar bone.  Butterfly
 Collar insert
 Back board
 Necks insert
Accessories can transform a basic assortment of cuts of fabric into a fully functional and stylish
piece of apparel. Most of the above garment defects related to accessories can easily be repaired
or reworked before the goods have left the factory. And there’s usually little danger of
introducing new defects into the garment when reworking these issues. If a button is missing, the
factory can simply sew one on right away.

Buttons are one of the accessories of a garment most susceptible to falling off. Many
manufacturers even sew an extra button to the garment or include one in the packaging for
consumers as a replacement.
But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pay attention to button defects during inspection. In fact,
since buttons are so susceptible to functional and durability issues, evaluating buttons and
buttonhole stitching should be an even higher priority during clothing inspection.
Fatigue tests and pull tests can help you verify the function and durability of the button itself. But
a button without a functional buttonhole doesn’t serve much purpose. There are no particular on-
site tests for the buttonhole itself. But your inspector should look out for a number of quality
defects related to buttonhole stitching during garment inspection.
How to classify buttonhole defects for garment inspection?
Most quality issues related to buttons are classified as “major” defects using standards. But you
may choose to class them differently based on your own quality expectations. Major defects are
quality issues that lower the value or usability of a product and might cause a customer to return
it. Defects related to buttons can hurt sales and brand perception so most garment importers
generally prefer to limit these as much as possible. Some common examples of buttonhole
defects and the problems they cause are:
Incomplete, skipped stitches or untrimmed threads around the buttonhole can cause the button to
catch or make it difficult to fasten the garment.
An improperly sized buttonhole can make the garment easily come unfastened or difficult to
fasten at all.
Buttonholes sewn vertically when they should be sewn horizontally and vice versa can affect
function and style of a garment. Buttons and Buttonholes
Buttons are the most common fastener used in different types of garments. Buttons are those
with shank and with 2 or four holes. They are used as fastener or decorations.
Ways of attaching Buttons
1. Square
2. Parallel
3. Cross
4. Arrow head

Figure 1.7: ways of attaching button
1.2.2 Worked Buttonholes

Ladies blouses are usually buttoned from right to left so the buttonholes should be made on the
right of the blouse. Holes through which buttons pass through are called “buttonholes”. If the
blouse is buttoned down at the front, the buttonholes maybe placed horizontally or vertically.
Horizontal buttonholes are made ½ centimetres outside the centreline. While the vertical
buttonholes are made on the centre line. The mark of the exact length of buttonholes should be ¼
centimetre to ½ centimetre longer than the diameter of the button.
I. Buttonholes
Buttonhole should be cut crosswise or lengthwise following are thread of the material. Use sharp
and pointed scissors when cutting the buttonholes.
Horizontal buttonholes are made by making a fan at one end and a bar at the other end while
vertical buttonholes are squared with buttonholes stitches at both ends.
Figure 1.8: Buttonhole

II. Snaps
Snaps are used on flat surface where there is a little
stain. These are commonly used for baby dresses.

Figure 1.9: Snaps
III. Zipper
Zipper, otherwise known as a slide fastener, is used to close-openings in many different types of
garments. It is mostly used in skirts and pants. Zipper is made with metal teeth or coils of nylon
or polyester that mesh together.
Figure 1.10: Zipper

IV. Hook-and-Eye
Hook-and-eye is used to fasten opening which has considerable strain. Belts and neck openings
use hook-and-eyes. There are two kinds of eyes – the round and straight. The round eye is used
where the edges of the opening just meet, while the straight eye is used on edges laps.
Sometimes a thread loop is used on a straight eye if a very flat closing is desired.

1.2.3 Performing sewing operations.
Seam finishes are most determined by the fabrics and their uses on the garments. Standard seam
allowance on pattern is 5 / 8 or 1.5 centimetre wide.
Type of Seam Finishes
1. Pinked Seam is used for non-fray able fabrics like wool, silk, velvet, etc. Use pinking
shears in trimming the edges.
Figure 1.1: Pinked seam
2. Overcast open seam is used in over casting the edges of seams. Blanket stitches are used in
this type of seams.
Figure 1.2: Overcast open seam
3. Edge turned and stitch seam is a stronger finish than pinking and overcast seam finishes.
This is suitable for lightweight fabrics. Trim the seams and turn raw edges. Machine stitch or
make running stitches on the edges.

Author/Copyright
Figure 1.3: Edge turned and stitch seam
4. Overcasting stitch is a slanting or diagonal stitch over the new edge of seams to keep the
cloth from ravelling.
Figure 1.4: Overcasting stitch
5. Zigzag open seam is a seam finish for open seam when there is only zigzagged available.
Figure 1.5: zigzag open seam

6. Over edged seam is seam finish if there is an over edging machine. It is also known as
overclocked seam.

1.3 Performing finishing operations.

Garment production is an organized activity consisting of sequential processes such as laying,
marking, cutting, stitching, checking, finishing, pressing and packaging. This is a process of
converting raw materials into finished products. It will be difficult to maintain the industry if
production is not, up to the mark if the preproduction phase of preparation of material is not
properly carried out. Ready to wear apparel or garment manufacturing involves many processing
steps, beginning with the idea or design concept and ending with a finished product. Apparel
manufacturing process involves Product Design, Fabric Selection and Inspection, Patternmaking,
Grading, Marking, Spreading, Cutting, Bundling, Sewing, Pressing or Folding, Finishing and
Detailing, Dyeing and Washing, QC etc. Finally we can say that, finishing is a beautification
process of garments. To achieve a good result in finishing, it is absolutely essential that the
garments are well prepared, and that the recipes and processes are strictly followed and exactly
monitored. Process Flow Chart of Garments Finishing:

Operation Sheet 1 Applying finishes
Task -1 Garment finishing process

Garment finishing through garment wet processing add value to the garments and the additional
effects become the clear differentiator. Garment finishing can be used for various applications,
be it shirts, trousers or t-shirts, but majority of the effects are most popular for casual wear and
denim segment. Garment finishing department takes care of the following functions:
Trimming
Stain removing
Repairing
Pressing
Task -2 - After stitching process

After stitching, there will be some hanging sewing threads on the finished product. Trimming is
the operation of removing these extra hanging threads. Sometimes, finished products get stained
during the production process. Finishing department is responsible to remove those stains by
using different wetting agents. Some of the sewn products may also have some open seams or
other stitching faults. The finishing department repairs such products before packing. The last
objective of finishing department is pressing. The sewn products are pressed to remove the
wrinkles and to enhance the look of the garment.

2.1. Checking Garment for loose threads
Shoppers typically buy a well-made shirt or blouse off a store shelf and take for granted that
there are no noticeable loose threads or other product defects. In fact, most consumers have no
idea of the processes involved in garment manufacturing and the defects that can occur along the
way.
But soft lines experts can appreciate the oversight needed to manufacture a single piece of
clothing that’s defect free. Purchasers, product developers, quality managers and others in the
industry tend to be keenly aware of the margin of error common to mass producing garments.
They know that pre-shipment garment inspection is vital to ensuring the goods meet their quality
standards.
Product inspection of garments is a highly specialized area within the realm of quality control. It
has distinct processes and specific terminology to define parts of clothing and their defects. QC
inspectors and other industry professionals use these standards to ensure garments conform to
importer specifications. And straying from these standards during the production and inspection
process could lead to an unsellable order of garments.
Understanding the different types of quality defects for garments and how to classify them is the
first step to preventing or greatly reducing them. Let’s look more closely at how to classify
garment defects for inspection.
2.2. Trimming the Excess threads
Fig 2. Thread trimming machine

Most factories practice manual thread cutting by hand trimmer (See below image). This manual
process increases the chance of damaging garment pieces. It may increase number of defective
garments in a lot. Therefore it is good to invest on automatic thread trimming machines. Other
than trimming of stitching threads, one may need to trim embroidery threads and beading
threads.

Fig 2.1 Two head thread trimmer
Trimmings scissors are cutting tools with blade under 6 inches in length and with identical
handle.
Sharp scissors make clean cut and well defined notches. Dull scissors make the cutting process
slow and make your hem and wrist tire easily. Trimming scissors should not be used for other
household task such as cutting papers or twine. Remember that trimming scissors last longer if
you occasionally put a drop of oil on the screw assembly.
Scissors handle has the same size, while shears has one handle larger than the other. Sharp shears
make clean cuts and well-define notches. They do not damage fabrics. Dull shears slow the
cutting processes and make your hand and wrist tire easily. Cutting shears should not be used for
other household task such as cutting papers or twine. Scissors and shears last longer if you
occasionally put a drop of oil on the screw assembly.
Trimming scissors - 10 – 15 centimetre 4 – 5 inches long are convenient to use at the machine
for they clip threads to hold in the ease of the seam close to the presser foot or to snip slashes.

Light trimmers are ideal for repairs, alterations, trimming seams small cutting job
2.3. Reversing and hanging Garments

It is a simple garment packing method where the garments are secured in a poly bag with a
hanger after pressing. Here polybag is the only material used. This type of packing can be used
for all types of garments especially for blazers, coats, pants, etc.

Author/Copyright
The merits and demerits of a hanger pack are:
Because of its simplicity it reduces the cost of packing and materials.
All the components/panels of the garments could be seen easily without removing the bag.
The time for packing and unpacking is less.
Material handling is not easy.

3.1. Preparing fabric and pressing tools
Pressing is important for it shapes and set stitched lines. It is done on the seam and darts to lay
flat the point pieces.
Pressing involves applying heat, moisture, and pressure to the fabric while it is the desired shape.
The iron is raised and lowered, rather than pushed along the fabric. It is not necessary to apply
pressure by pressing down the iron. In fact, holding the iron up slightly to lighten the pressure of
the iron is better for many tailoring fabrics.
Before beginning to press, be sure that iron is clean. Care should be taken when pressing silk,
wool, and rayon. Iron is not be too hot for wool and silk will be yellowed and scorched at a
comparatively high temperature. A hot iron will melt rayon fibres. Press wool and silk on the
wrong side. Pressing on the right side produces an undesirable shine. Cotton and linen may be
pressed on either side. Vegetables fibres stand a hotter iron than those of animal origin. They are
easier to press when slightly damp.
3.1.1 Pressing Tools and Equipment and Their Uses
1. An electric iron is used in straightening wrinkle on finished garment for a neat appearance.
Figure 3.1.Ironing
2. An ironing board is padded, smooth and adjustable in height. The cover should be kept clean
and smooth for ready use.

4. Bowls and sponges are used to dampen fabrics for easy ironing.
Figure 3.4: Damp

5. Press cloth is used to prevent iron shine and is always used when applying fusible interfacing.
Tips in Using an Iron
1. Do not let the iron cord drag over your work.
2. To avoid scorching the iron board cover, tilt the iron back on its heel when not in use.
3. If starch or sizing is stuck to the iron, let it cool, and then scour it with soap and non-
scratching scouring powder or baking soda.

Author/Copyright
4. Turn off the iron when it is not in use.
5. It is safe to use distilled water on steam iron.
3.2. Setting up, cleaning and checking Pressing machines
3.2.1. General Pressing Techniques

Regulate the iron temperature as directed on the permanent care label, or on the dial setting for
the fabric. If you are unsure about the fibre content, begin by testing it with low temperature
setting.
If you are working on the thin fabrics or doing slow work, as in shrinking or pressing gathers,
keep the iron temperature slightly lower than for heavier fabrics.
Line and cotton require considerable moisture or eliminating wrinkle and should be pressed until
dry for smooth finish.
Wool requires moisture in pressing to prevent damage to the fibres – dry heat maker them brittle.
Thick materials need more pressure.
Thermoplastic, man-made-fibres are heat sensitive for they tend to melt and glaze. These fabrics
often press better dry.
Use the tips or edge of the iron on seams, hold the iron above the fabric and apply it light by
easily damaged texture.
Press with grain.
Avoid pressing over basting or pins.
Press embroidery, brand buttons, and such rough textures from the wrong side over the soft pad.
Press collars, lapels, cuff, belts, and pocket first on the wrong side. Then finish them on the right
side very lightly over a press cloth.
Avoid lengthwise creases in sleeves or lapels.
Remove any stains or soil before pressing, as heat would probably set the stain.
3.3. Identifying faults, spots and marks
Very important detail to include is a list of known quality defects for the product and how to
classify them, typically as “critical”, “major” or “minor”. Some industry standards exist for
classifying defects. But ultimately, no one knows your market and your customers better than
you. Maybe you import high-end formalwear, and there are certain defects your customers won’t

Author/Copyright
accept. Likewise, you may be importing less expensive denim jeans for customers who are more
tolerant of the same defects.
Without a QC checklist that clearly outlines how different garment defects should be reported,
your inspectors are left guessing and you receive less reliable reporting.
3.3.1. Critical defects for garments
A critical defect is one that presents a safety hazard to the user, might cause property damage or
otherwise harms the end user of the product. A single critical defect found in a single garment
typically results in the importer’s rejection of the entire order. Major reasons for such swift
dismissal of an order containing a critical defect are that it:
Figure 3.5: critical defects for garments
Puts consumers at risk of bodily harm

Threatens the reputation of distributors throughout the supply chain, and
Exposes the brand to liability and unnecessary costs in the event of a product recall
One example of a critical garment defect is finding a needle or other sharp object included in the
packaging of the finished goods. This isn’t a defect unique to garments. But due to the cutting
and sewing processes involved in manufacturing softlines products, you’re more likely find it in
these product types.
Another example of a critical defect is finding blood or mold on a garment. It might seem
unlikely that you’d find blood on a garment. But just as a sharp object might find its way into
packaging, a worker might accidentally cut himself during work. In this way, blood may end up
on the product.
Garment orders are more likely to fail inspection due to mold, another critical defect that’s
relatively common. A large portion of international garment production takes place in countries
like Indonesia, Vietnam and others in Southeast Asia. Humid climates typical of that region

Author/Copyright
make the garments there more vulnerable to mold during packaging and storage. Mold can spoil
an entire order of garments if the factory doesn’t take action to prevent it.
3.3.2 Major defects for garments
Major defects are those which don’t pose a threat to the safety of the user, but don’t meet the
importer’s specifications. These defects typically lower the value or usability of the product, hurt
salability and can lead to customer returns. Depending on the type and quantity found, major
defects may prompt the importer to refuse an order, asking the supplier to hold it until they’ve
addressed the quality issues found during inspection.
Figure 3.6 : Major defects for garments

Factory workers may be able to reasonably repair or rework the defective garments. Other times,
the factory cannot easily remedy major defects, and the importer may ask their supplier to cover
the loss or manufacture replacement pieces. Some brands may also accept imperfect garments
and offer discounts through special distribution channels, such as factory outlet stores and other
retailers.
An example of major defects you may find in garments is incorrect colors or designs on the
product. These are sometimes acceptable when the garments still have proper dimensions. While
using the wrong colors or designs is not desirable, the clothes can usually be sold if they’re still
proportionate and match standard size categories (e.g. S, M, L and XL).
Issues with sizing out of tolerances or incorrect stitching are often considered major defects that
would result in the importer rejecting an order of garments. If the clothes don’t fit correctly or
tear or fall apart easily, these products are likely to be returned by customers and tarnish the
image of the brand on the label.
3.3.3 Minor defects for garments

Author/Copyright
Minor defects found in relatively small quantities typically don’t affect the salability of a product
and aren’t normally identified by the customer. But they’re still issues outside of the standard the
importer and supplier have agreed upon.
Figure .3.2.1 Minor defects for garments

Minor garment defects can take many forms and include issues such as:
Misprinting of “Made in Chins” instead of “Made in China” on a shipping carton
Untrimmed threads, missing stitches or uneven stitching on a garment
Minor variation in shading between garment pieces
Variation of care label quality or content
Minor defects also include dirt and other materials on the surface of a garment that can be easily
washed off. Such defects found in isolation are typically accepted by the importer.
3.4. Applying Heat/Pressure
Pressing is the application of heat, moisture and pressure to shape, mold, or crease fabrics,
garments, or garment parts into the geometric forms. Pressing may be done: During assembly to
facilitate other operations and improve quality. Final finishing process The purpose of pressing
is to make the fabric smooth or to give it a form, such as turn up or hem.
Heat is needed in most pressing processes to soften fibers, stabilize and set the desired shape.
Temperatures must be selected to suit the fibers, yarns, and fabrics used in a particular style.
Sources of heat include heated surfaces and steam. Steam (Moisture):It is the fastest means of
transferring heat into the fabrics . Steam is created by heating water in a pressure/boiler. The
higher the pressure, the hotter and drier the steam. Different fabrics require different amount of
moisture and heat, excessive moisture may cause shrinkage and color bleeding and must be used
under controlled conditions.

Author/Copyright
Pressure: It is applied to alter shape and increase the permanency of the moulding or creasing.
Too much pressure may distort fabric surfaces, flatten textures and create permanent garment
and/or fabric damage. Vacuum: After application of heat and moisture, it is the vacuum which
sucks ambient air through the garment as it lies on the buck or pressing table. This rapidly dries
out residual moisture from the garment and ensures that the set imparted by pressing is retained.
Suction also ensures garments are in place before pressing and it does not shift.
3.4.1 Categories or types of garment pressing:
The garments are different types, especially, different in design and garments materials. The
pressing of garments are five categorized, designs and materials are given below:
1. No pressing:
Some garments are available; these are not need to pressing. Such as, underwear, briefs,
swimwear. These types’ garments are made by knitted fabric.
2. Minimum pressing:
Some garments are available; these are not needed finishing done by applying heat but no need
pressing. Such as Night gowns knitted T-Shirt, Leisure wear and so on. These types of garments
are pressing by steaming and by flowing dry air to the garments and called minimum pressing.
3. Under pressing:
To do help for sewing easily and beautifully, it must need to give minimum pressing to some
parts of garments before sewing is called under pressing. Specially, under pressing is done to
most of the garments industries for making coat, jacket, and trouser and so on. Sometimes, there
is needed of unpicking and again under pressing is done before sewing.
4. Final pressing:
These types’ garments are applying heat and pressing to the garments. This is done after making
of garments. This is generally done in jacket, trouser, skirt and so on. Special type of pressing
machine is used for final pressing.
5. Permanent pressing:
Permanent pressing is a special type of pressing, when it is given to retain the shape of garments
or special conditions. Such as, dart and pleat, which cannot be displace or drawn-off after
washing of garments again and again. This type of pressing is done by applying high temperature
and steam, sometimes, there is needed for pressing.
3.5. Sequencing press

Author/Copyright
Garments are pressed to remove any creases, and present the garment to the customer in
attractive condition suitable for sale. Garment presentation to the consumer is a vital step in the
finishing of a product. The opinion of the customer is an integral step in brand recognition.
Poorly presented product will have a detrimental effect on the brand’s quality and therefore
product salability. A badly creased garment will lower its retail value and thus the
manufacturer’s sale margin. Pressing therefore is an important step in the production process.
Pressing should accomplish the following:
Removal of all manufacturing creases and wrinkles
Clarity of pleats if there are pleats present (such as in skirts and trousers)
Uniformity of collars and cuffs if present
Stabilizing the garment, particularly in the case of wool knitwear to retain the desired shape
Relaxation of any stresses induced during garment manufacture.
Classification of pressing:
The basic processes that are involved in pressing can be divided into two groups:
Under pressing It is the pressing operation performed on garment components as they are made
up.
Top pressing/Final pressing – This refers to the finishing operation, which a garment undergoes
after being completely assembled.
Both groups involve a huge number of individual processes, their extent determined by the cloth,
quality and design of the garment.

4.1. Packing finished garments.
Packaging means wrapping, compressing, filling or creating of goods for the purpose of
protection of goods and their convenient handling.
Packaging is an important part of the product, which has to receive a lot of attention to the
people. It is concerned with designing & producing of appropriate packages for a product.
Packaging also refers to the process of design, evaluation, and production of packages.
Packaging can be described as a coordinated system of preparing goods for transport,
warehousing, logistics, sale, and end.
After final inspection & garments folding, the garments are poly-packed dozen-wise, color wise,
size ratio wise, bundled and packed in the carton. The carton is marked with important
information in printed form which is seen from outside the carton easily. Specially, it is needed
to ensure the placement of sticker in proper place.
4.1.1 Apparel Packaging Sequence
After folding garments are packed in polyethylene packets
Generally polyethylene packets are of different sizes
During packing, the position of sticker and other label should be confirmed
After polyethylene packing, garments are kept in the sorting rack according size and color
Then garments placed in inner box from the sorting rack according to size and color
Packing in inner box according to work order is called is called ‘assortment’
The packing that is done by the fixed no. of inner box in the cartoon is called cartooning or
packing
The carton is sealed with the scotch tape
Carton bears some information on it g. carton box no. carton box size, shipping mark, destination
etc.
Different types of packaging are there for different types of garments. Following is the most used
packing types
 Stand up pack: Shirt (90° angle)
 Flat pack: Sport wear/Shirt/Trouser
 Hanger pack: Blazer, Coats, Pants
 Semi stand up pack: Shirt
 Half fold pack: Pant

Author/Copyright
Packaging has two major functions:
 Distribution
 Merchandising
The main purpose of distribution packaging is packaging the garment in a way that it allows the
garment manufacturers to transport the garment at a minimum cost and in the shortest time to the
retailer or purchaser, without deteriorating the quality of the product. The merchandising
function deals with showcasing the garment product in a way that it stimulates consumer desire
for purchasing the particular product.

A garment label is a communicator between the buyer and product. A garment label contains
various types of information of that garments, such as buyer name, country of origin, types of
fabric, types of yarn, fabric composition, garments size, special instruction about care etc.
Labels are an important part of the clothing industry and consumer laws take them very
seriously.

4.3. Cleaning workstation after.
After packing of garment cloths we have to clean the working area for nest job.
A clean workplace can help to achieve better productivity and protects worker's health and
safety. Factories should establish systems to make sure that waste is continuously cleared up and
that the workplace is kept safe, healthy and hygienic at all times.
Workstation cleaning covers an abundance of areas – after all, and ‘office’ can come in many
shapes and sizes. Specifically manufactures a comprehensive range of products for the safe and
efficient cleaning of all office equipment. A regular cleaning regime can guard against
breakdowns and ensure that equipment.
