How do quality inspectors apply AQL 2.5 sampling tables to a garment shipment?

Short answer

Inspectors pull a statistically determined random sample size from total production cartons based on ISO 2859-1 tables. If the number of defective pieces found exceeds the defined AQL 2.5 threshold (e.g., max allowable defectives), the entire lot is rejected.
