ALINA GLOBAL SERVICES

A shipment fails at the border, not on the line.

Twenty years of international trade sit behind every order we take. That is not a sales argument. It is what keeps your container out of a bonded warehouse.

Where orders actually fail

None of these are production faults. Every one of them stops a container.

Labelling
Fibre composition, care symbols, size or country of origin in the wrong language or the wrong format for the destination.
Missing test report
The importer is asked for a report that was never commissioned, weeks after the goods shipped.
File mismatch
What was filed with the authority does not describe what is in the carton.
Document errors
Invoice, packing list and certificate of origin that disagree with each other or with the shipment.

What we handle

Fibre composition, care instructions, construction and measurements, assembled in the form your importer files.

Selling into the Gulf

Goods entering Saudi Arabia need a conformity certificate for the product and another for each shipment. Your importer files them; the factory supplies the technical file and test reports they are filed against. We will tell you what your file is missing before you place the order, not after the container has sailed.

On certification

We do not display certification marks we cannot evidence. Any buyer can verify them, and a false one is found in an afternoon. Third-party testing is arranged per order at SGS, Bureau Veritas, Intertek or TÜV Rheinland, and the report is issued in your name.

Testing is arranged at

  • SGS
  • Bureau Veritas
  • Intertek
