Cotecna Asia Launches Fast Turn-Around Online Service for Consumer Goods Inspection and Testing
GENEVA, June 2, 2010-- Pioneering inspection and testing services provider Cotecna has launched
what it predicts will be the most technically advanced, reliable and flexible
online service for the inspection and quality control of Consumer Goods
currently available in the marketplace, giving businesses the power to save
time and money. Visit the website: http://www.cotecna-inspection.com.
Aimed at importers, distributors and retailers, and backed up
by a unique worldwide support network covering 60 nations, Cotecna will begin
to roll out this on-line service for inspections in Asia that includes a
range of quality control and supervision services for Consumer Goods. From
initial production to loading supervision, Cotecna can perform verifications
at every stage of the supply chain process to make sure that products meet
client expectations and quality standards. Laboratory tests also ensure that
goods meet international standards and comply with customer requirements.
The buyer simply registers on the site and submits a request for
inspection. An inspection takes on average from one to two days, during which
time the buyer can follow the progress of the inspection request online via
the site.
"Unlike other online services that currently exist, Cotecna's
online service for inspection and testing is supported by a worldwide network
able to give buyers throughout the world local support in their own language
and in all time zones, cutting down turnaround times and saving money in the
process," says Philippe Gonnet, Executive Vice-President, Asia, "In addition,
Cotecna also performs Factory Audits (FA) and Social Audits (SA) to ensure
that your factory of choice meets your expectations and quality
requirements."
Products of Asian origin that are inspected and tested
include: hard-line (furniture, home furnishings, kitchenware, DIY, garden
tools...), food, soft-line (textiles, garments, shoes, accessories...),
electrical, electronics and toys. Services are coordinated throughout Asia
with our main offices in China (Hong Kong and mainland), Korea, India,
Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines.
