[ INDEPENDENT · VERIFIED · CASE-BY-CASE ]

We worked with

Serica Materials works with independent specialists across quality control, laboratory testing, and international logistics. The providers involved depend on the material, country, regulatory requirements and scope of each project — see the operating model behind these engagements, or browse the active material clusters.

QUALITY CONTROL & QUALITY ASSURANCE

Independent capabilities we draw on.

No single provider covers every project. Serica coordinates the right combination of the following independent capabilities on a case-by-case basis.

01

Factory audits & supplier verification

Independent reviews of manufacturing capability, quality-management procedures, production controls and supplier documentation.

02

Pre-shipment inspection

Verification of quantity, packaging, labelling, visible condition and agreed product specifications before dispatch.

03

Laboratory analysis

Third-party testing of selected chemical, physical or performance parameters against agreed specifications or recognised test methods.

04

Compliance-document review

Review of safety data sheets, certificates of analysis, declarations and supporting regulatory documentation.

05

Sample & application validation

Independent or customer-led assessment of samples before commercial-scale procurement.

06

Regulatory & REACH review

Screening for REACH registration status, restricted-substance exposure and destination-market compliance requirements.

HOW PROVIDERS ARE SELECTED

Provider selection is case-by-case.

Serica does not use a single provider for every project. The inspection or testing partner is selected according to the material, required methodology, production location and destination-market requirements. The same discipline applies to logistics coordination.
