PARTICIPATED IN GLOBAL RECYCLED STANDARD(GRS) AUDIT
Gained hands-on experience with internal and external audits at a textile manufacturer in Thailand. Assisted in preparing cross-departmental documentation and completing audit-related forms before and after the GRS audit. Conducted research on chemical usage in the production process, and gained knowledge of waste management practices and social compliance to ensure alignment with GRS and local government regulations. As well as learned from the quality control team about maintaining yarn and textile quality to meet standard requirements.
QUALITY & CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT
One of the research projects I completed during my studies provided a strong foundation in quality and chemical management in garment production. It deepened my understanding of regulatory requirements and chemical standards, including REACH, RSL, and ISO 9001. This background has been beneficial in supporting quality management practices and ensuring compliance with international standards in the textile and apparel industry.
CERTIFICATES AND AUDIT REPORT REVIEW
Reviewed Scope and Transaction Certificates (TC), as well as audit reports from WRAP, AMFORI, BSCI, ISO 9001, SEDEX, GRS, GOTS, WCA, SMETA, and others. Followed up on corrective action plans with suppliers, ensuring proper documentation and timely resolution of non-conformities.
Reviewed signed documents related to chemical restrictions, the Code of Conduct, and acknowledgement forms to ensure compliance with company policies and regulatory requirements.
TEXTILE ANALYSIS
Through fabric testing, like colorfastness to rubbing, dry-cleaning, and hot pressing, I developed a strong understanding of how to evaluate textile quality and durability while ensuring compliance with ISO standards for everyday garments. I also researched the chemicals used in production, their restrictions, and how they impact product quality.
This experience gave me valuable insight into quality assurance, performance evaluation, consumer safety, regulatory compliance, and ways to improve production processes for better and more sustainable outcomes.
