Plant Inspection- Pack Certification 



This type of inspection service is similar 

 to continuous inspection except that the in- 

 spector may not be present continuously during 

 all operating shifts of the plant. While he is 

 on duty, however, he performs the same 

 functions as he would under continuous in- 

 spection. His primary responsibility is to 

 inspect and certify the entire pack as soon 

 after it is produced as possible. Products 

 inspected by this method cannot carry official 

 marks. 



Both types of in-plant inspection service 

 may be used to assist plant quality control 

 programs, as well as to facilitate sales 

 programs. 



Unofficial Sample Inspection 



You can select your own samples and sub- 

 mit them to the nearest inspection office for 

 examination. However, inspection certificates 

 issued on this type of examination show only 

 the grade quality or condition of the samples, 

 and make no reference to the quality of the 

 lot from which the samples were taken. 

 Inspection based on unofficial samples is not 

 recommended as a basis for negotiating sales, 

 since there can be no assurance that the 

 samples accurately represent the entire lot. 



Trained Inspectors, Well- Equipped 

 Laboratories 



The average inspector is a college gradu- 

 ate. He went through a formal six-month 

 training program when he entered the inspec- 

 tion service — getting a thorough knowledge 

 of inspection techniques through classroom 

 theory work and practical on-the-job training 

 under an experienced inspection supervisor. 

 He gets additional training in the techniques 

 of inspecting each new commodity before he 

 is authorized to officially inspect and certify it.
