Our Quality Confidence

Fearless of Comparison

We dare to show our real quality to the public and let you witness our authenticity. There was a situation when some consumers wanted to know whether our down was really as good as we contended, and we didn’t hesitate to cut a down jacket open directly in front of consumers to completely expose our actual down quality and down content. Speaking of quality, we have this kind of firm confidence only because we always provide products that are above regular standards.

Our Spirit of Workmanship

Absolute Focus, Ingenious Craft

Every single down jacket we manufacture is masterfully crafted and goes through at least 150 stages of workmanship process. We pay close attention to every aspect and we never ignore any element, no matter how small it may be, that may affect the integrated whole. Down clothing manufacturing is what we focus on 100% rather than making all kinds of garments with no guarantee of quality. The following are some of our craftsmanship standards​ that ensure our high quality:

Sophisticated Test Equipment

Not all down clothing factories have the capability or scale to equip themselves with advanced quality inspection facilities. At Tanboer, our manufacturing center is armed with cutting-edge test equipment to ensure flawless quality.

Your Quality Assurance

Comprehensive Inspections in All Directions
Thorough Fabric Inspection

With strict implementation of our inspection standard, we make sure the incoming fabric will go through the following tests, with the results recorded in computer precisely:

 

• Hand test to ensure no abnormal touch;

• Density test to check cloth tightness;

• Width and length measurement for correct sizes;

• Shrinkage test to avoid significant fabric shrink;

• Color difference and color fastness test for stable hues;

• Defect inspection to prevent obvious flaws;

• Tearing strength test to make sure no splitting of cloth;

• Down-proof test to guarantee no down coming out through the fabrics;

• Smell test to check and avoid peculiar smell.

Careful Accessory Inspection

We also pay close attention to down apparel accessories. Like the butterfly effect, small causes can have huge effects. This is why we still uphold most rigorous inspection standards for accessories:

 

• No error or missed detection, assuring complete and traceable records of inspection results.

• Disqualified accessories with nonconformity labels are NOT allowed to enter warehouse.

• Each inspector in charge will take absolute responsibility for the test results.

• Timely quality issue follow-up and feedback to related suppliers for quality improvement.

100% Inspection of Fur Collars

We ensure the complete inspection of fur collars, especially for those of particular craftsmanship. Only qualified fur can be warehoused. And we rigorously carry out following examinations:

 

• Dimension test: Tolerance within 1cm of length and width; 0.5 cm of button position; same size each end of the fur collar.

• Appearance test: Smooth, soft, vivid loose, uniform color, moderate thickness, same peak direction, no knot or fur loss.

• Craftsmanship test: Checking whether the material/color of the base fabric and stitch meet the requirements.

• Defect test: No holes, peculiar smell, drop stitch on seams, or loosen buttons.

• Dyed fur test: 30 times of white cloth friction within a 20 cm range.

• 3rd party test: Sunlight fastness test to ensure level 3+, plus safety test.

Multiple Finished Garment Inspections

Before delivery to our customers, all finished products will undergo responsibly conducted inspections to ensure the perfect output:

 

• Overall inspection: Check the number of garments, the model number, tag info, and certification info to make sure correctness.

• Front inspection: Accurate filling position, straight, flat, no thread breakage, no holes, even visible stitch, correct printing and labels.

• Lining inspection: Proper trademark and washing labels, smooth touch with no wrinkle, no leaks, or any dead folds.

• Back and sleeve inspection: Correct filling position, flat, no thread breakage, no holes, even stitch, exact printing and labels.
