The hazards of formaldehyde, benzene and other harmful substances in the home improvement process have always been of great concern to everyone. According to industry sources, household pollution caused by wooden furniture may become one of the important sources of pollution. A few days ago, the National Furniture and Indoor Environmental Quality Supervision and Inspection Agency stated that the "National Standard for the Limitation of Hazardous Substances in Wooden Furniture" (Revision) has been drafted (hereinafter referred to as the "Standard"). According to the reporter's understanding, the regulations on the limits of harmful substances in the new standard are more detailed, and it is easier to ensure the safety of users.
"Standard" Interpretation 1 Furniture will not be destroyed after testing
During the interview, the reporter found that many people pay more and more attention to the harmful substances in the furniture, especially fear that formaldehyde, benzene and other volatilization will affect the children. But from many people who have experience in furniture inspection, the reporter learned that furniture inspection is not a simple matter.
Industry insiders said that in accordance with the requirements of the current regulations, the inspection method of the dryer is used when the furniture is submitted for inspection, and a plate sample needs to be taken from the edge of the furniture for identification. No problem, no way to use it.
And this "Standard" has new regulations on furniture testing. It is understood that in the future, the furniture can be placed in the environmental climate cabin for testing. After the test, the furniture will not be damaged, thus avoiding the above embarrassment.
Improve and refine the requirements of environmental protection indicators
The pollution of wood furniture is mainly due to formaldehyde, benzene and other elements exceeding the standard. The "Standard" has reduced formaldehyde emission from the original 1.5mg / L to 01mg / m3. At the same time, the VOC (volatile organic compound) emission has been clearly defined, such as benzene 0.11mg / m3, toluene 0.20mg / m3, xylene 0.20mg / m3, total volatile organic compounds (TVOC) 0.60mg / m3, etc., the standards are more and more detailed, and also praised by many industry insiders as the biggest change in the new regulations.
Many companies may find it difficult to meet the requirements of the Standard
The "Standards" have stricter and stricter regulations on hazardous substances, which are obviously more secure for consumers, but what impact will it have on wooden furniture companies? Lian Tianhong's relevant personage said that for many furniture companies on the market, This is really difficult to achieve. Because many wooden furniture have poor materials, rough craftsmanship, adulteration and other reasons, they have to be painted or painted with wood grain to increase the beauty and cover up the disadvantages of furniture. Because paint and glue contain a lot of harmful substances, it is a matter of course that the harmful substances of such furniture exceed the standard.
Environmental protection has gradually become the consensus of wood furniture companies
Although the launch of the "Standard" puts forward higher requirements for enterprises, the reporter still found that some mid- to high-end wood furniture manufacturers have taken the initiative to integrate environmental protection concepts into their products. Yan Yibin, Regional Director of Ximengbao Furniture, said that Ximengbao has been committed to making environmentally friendly furniture, including the use of more environmentally friendly wood such as pine in the selection of materials, with a view to reducing pollution. Liantianhong also said that in order to ensure environmental protection, Liantianhong pays attention to the selection of materials, adopts a tenon structure instead of glue and iron nails, and uses natural beeswax for maintenance, which can effectively reduce harmful gases.
Not only that, but many decoration companies in Fuzhou are also doing matching furniture processing and sales. Lin Huang, manager of Wanxin Decoration Market, said that they usually pay attention to the selection and processing of wood furniture. Although they do not directly produce wood, the control of wood is still very strict to ensure the health of customers.
The main pollution of anti-pollution wooden furniture comes from paint and glue
The reporter learned from many home furnishing stores in Fuzhou that consumers' preference for furniture has shifted from a single product to a complete set of products, and wooden furniture accounts for most of the proportion, including some furniture made of artificial board. Yan Yibin, Regional Director of Ximenbao Furniture, told reporters that the main pollution of wooden furniture is still paint and glue, and the content of harmful substances in wood itself is not high.
He said that wood furniture must be painted, and glue is also used in the splicing process, and these two contain the most harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene. And the reason why many people say that wood-based panels contain more harmful substances than other woods is that wood-based panels are artificially stitched together with glue, so the main source of pollution is from glue.
Whether the furniture contains harmful substances is difficult for ordinary consumers to distinguish. The natural environmental protection promoted by many manufacturers is often based on non-environmentally friendly furniture for comparison. Lian Tianhong's sources suggested that consumers who have the strength to buy high-end furniture should try to buy furniture that is not painted or painted. Although the unpainted furniture will have some color differences, the furniture does not contain harmful substances, no irritating smell, and clear wood texture can be seen.
The test report provided by the merchant is for reference only
In order to meet the requirements of the national standard, each manufacturer will send its own product for inspection to obtain a test report. Industry insiders said that every wooden furniture store said it could provide a qualified test report, but consumers still need to be more attentive at this time. It is not that a test report means that each product meets environmental standards. In addition to looking at styles, consumers must carefully check whether they have a pungent odor when buying wooden furniture. If so, it is likely to cause harm to the body.
