August 2006 Inspection Procedure 2
Garment Inspection Standards
All sampling and statistical aspects of the inspection process are based
on AS 1199. Suppliers should use these standards in their own quality
assurance inspections so as to ensure stock presented for inspection
has the highest likelihood of passing.
AQL: An AQL of 4% (minors) and 2.5% (major) will be used. The order
can fail for either majors or minors.
SAMPLE PLAN: Sample plan as per AS 1199 will be used in most
instances.
WORKMANSHIP:
• Level S4 for inspection in Australia
• Level 1 for inspection in Overseas
MEASUREMENTS:
• Woven AQL: 6.5% Major
• Knits AQL: 10% Major
Minor faults are faults that are outside tolerance and specification less
than a grade.
Major faults are faults that are outside tolerance and specification
equal to or more than a grade.
Garment / Fabric defects
Defects are categorised as major or minor depending on the severity.
To determine whether a defect is major or minor, the following factors
will be considered:
• Whether the defect will render the item unsaleable
• The conspicuousness of the defect
• The location of the defect on the item
DEFECT ZONES The following diagrams showing major and minor apparel defect zones
A,B and C
A defect in “A” zone is considered more serious than a defect
in “B” zone
A defect in “B” zone is considered more serious than a defect
in “C” zone
and will be categorised accordingly.

Defect Definition and Classification
MAJOR FAULT
This is a defect which is sufficient to cause the garment to be
considered as second’s quality
• A defect which is obvious
• Affects the saleability or serviceability which worsens with
wear and time
• Varies significantly from the approval garment specification
MINOR FAULT
This is a defect which would not normally be identified by the
customer, but is, however less than the agreed quality standard. A
defect which
• Does not affect the performance of the garments in normal
conditions
• Is not noticeable to the customer on purchasing
• Is not noticeable to the wearer of the garment, or anyone
adjacent to the wearer
• Will not worsen with time and wear
