Container Loading Supervision

Container Loading Supervision (CLS) is the final quality and logistics check conducted before goods are shipped. It verifies that products are loaded into the container correctly with proper quantity, packaging, weight distribution, and secure sealing. This inspection supports safe transportation and reduces the risk of shipment damage or rejection.

ECQA provides independent container loading supervision for buyers, brands, and importers who require verified loading conditions before shipment release. Our inspectors oversee the entire loading process and document every step to ensure traceability and logistics compliance.
