Once we understand your requirements, DSAsia creates a list of factories best equipped to meet your production needs. We then approach factories chosen from the list by you, requesting quotes and samples on your behalf. We review these samples and report back to you, selecting only the best to be shipped for your consideration.

Material and Coating Testing

Every component of a product is important. Our comprehensive material and coating tests examine all aspects of these components, providing important reassurance. Tests include:

Environmental test
Performed in a chamber large enough to fit entire sideboards and dining tables, this test will check that your product can withstand even the harshest and most changeable of environments.

Temperature cycle test
By rapidly flicking from one extreme to the other, we will certify that your product can easily cope with any changes in temperature. This test can also be used to speed up the aging process for products with a wood finish, helping us identify a potential long term problem.

Coating adhesion and hardness test
This test will check the strength and durability of your product’s adhesive coating.

Material tensile strength test
We will stretch and stress your product to its limits, ensuring that you won’t experience any unexpected breakages or weaknesses.

Carton bursting strength test
We also test the strength of our shipping cartons, to guarantee that they will not burst or break during shipping.

Provided with only a photo, sample or even a sketch, we can create detailed designs and specifications. Then, having thoroughly gauged your needs, we are able to connect you with the best manufacturers for your particular project. Our aim is to help you achieve your desired results, delivering both quality and value for money. Whether you’re looking for a unique custom design or an off-the-shelf item, we can draw on our wide network of factories and trusted partners to find the right fit for you.

We understand that a late delivery could have serious repercussions. We make it our business to closely monitor schedules and supervise shipping. We worry so you don’t have to.

Check point 1 - Once your approved product specifications are uploaded to our secure server, our Quality Control team will ensure the required materials are ready to go, allowing production to begin without delay.

Check point 2 – During production, our team carry out in-line inspections covering every potential area of concern, from moisture content to critical dimensions, workmanship, and checking that the materials correctly match your desired specifications.

Check point 3 – With production completed, our team will carry out random checks on a pre-defined percentage of boxes.

Check point 4 – Our Quality Control team use a tailored online ‘inspection package’ to guide them through the final inspection. They have access to spec sheets, packaging details and comprehensive product photos and complete and confirm a series of checks. Only when the team issues a ‘pass’ can the products be shipped. In the event of a ‘fail’, the appropriate correction measures will be taken, and our shipping staff will notify you as soon as possible about any potential shipment delays.

We understand that a quality service is incomplete if it isn’t backed by outstanding customer care. Our customer support team is on hand to answer any questions you might have along the way as well as to assist you in other areas, including organising transport and accommodation for buyers’ trips.
