Buyer FAQ

SGS questions buyers usually ask before sourcing.

Does SGS testing replace buyer inspection?

No. Third-party testing context and buyer inspection serve different purposes. Buyers should still define product, packaging, and shipment inspection criteria for the order.

Can SGS-related report scope be reviewed before sampling?

Yes. The buyer can share target market, product finish, packaging channel, and compliance questions so the relevant report context can be discussed early.

Which cookware details affect third-party testing scope?

Material, coating, color, food-contact surface, tested sample, target market, and claim wording can all affect how a third-party report should be interpreted.
