Quality management for cosmetic mold / container / casing manufacturing

Quality Control

Lomei Cosmetics places strict demands on its own quality assurance system to meet international standards in the production of cosmetic molds, casings, and packaging materials.

Regarding equipment, various precision measuring instruments have been introduced to support quality management. In terms of processes, quality control personnel are present on-site during critical production processes to conduct corresponding quality inspections. When it comes to details, quality control personnel conduct comprehensive product quality inspections to identify issues and improve the quality standards and production yield, ensuring that cosmetic casings, packaging materials, and containers meet the required quality standards when shipped. A robust quality control procedure is in place to meet customer needs.


Cosmetic Packaging / Container Visual Inspection

● Color Criteria:
- Due to production technology limitations, the color tolerance for the entire batch of products will be provided based on the customer-approved sample. A color deviation of plus or minus 5% is considered an acceptable range.

● Surface Criteria:
- No presence of debris, insects, dust, or oil residue on the inner surface of tubes, inner cups, or bottles.
- The surfaces should be free from debris, insects, dust, or oil residue.
- No missing material, cracks (as long as it doesn't affect secondary processing or assembly functionality).
- No damaged or incorrect components (as long as it doesn't affect secondary processing or assembly functionality).
- Scratches (length > 5mm, width > 0.2mm, more than 1).
- Deformation (as long as it doesn't affect secondary processing or assembly functionality).
- Bubbles (surface ≥ 0.15mm, more than 1; other areas ≥ 0.15mm, ≤ 0.5mm, more than 3).
- Black spots (surface ≥ 0.15mm, more than 1; other areas ≥ 0.15mm, ≤ 0.5mm, more than 3).
- Pits (> 0.5mm, more than 2 on the same surface).
- Blemishes (more than 10 spots > 0.2mm within a 10mm² area).
- Injection gate should not protrude more than 0.3mm above the surface.
- No excessive adhesive.
- No detachment or breakage of lenses (as long as it doesn't affect secondary processing or assembly functionality).

● Logo Criteria:
- Incorrect content or color.
- Fraying, notches, or teeth-like features ≥ 0.3mm.
- Misalignment in printing, embossing, or hot stamping > 0.5mm.
- Severe tilt affecting identification.
- Overlapping or missing prints affecting identification.
- Ink smears > 0.3mm and more than 3 points.
- Vertical or horizontal displacement ≥ 1mm², ≤ 1mm².
