Luxury is no longer the primary choice for home improvement, and green, healthy and environmental protection are getting more and more attention.

The concept of “green” has also become the constant theme in the trend of home.

Blockboard

Blockboard: the basis of furniture environmental protection

The problem of excessive formaldehyde in furniture has always been the focus of attention in the industry, and it is also a recognized problem in the industry. With the skyrocketing prices of raw materials, the price of solid wood furniture has been rising all the time, especially high-quality solid wood furniture, such as mahogany furniture, which is unbearable for the general working class. In this situation, panel furniture has gradually become the main consumer. However, panel furniture generally uses wood-based panels, adhesives and furniture coatings. If the materials used do not meet the environmental requirements, it is most likely to cause indoor air pollution, so you can not only look at the appearance of the finished product when purchasing.

Hazard: Raw material pollution affects residential safety

The choice of environmentally friendly furniture depends first on raw materials.

Blockboard (commonly known as large core board), if used improperly, is most likely to cause environmental problems. Unfriendly green blockboard directly causes indoor air pollution; even if so-called environmentally friendly products, too much usage can easily cause cumulative pollution.

The blockboard is covered by layers of paint and outer decorative materials. The quality of the board is not easily found, resulting in a large number of toxic "cores" hidden in the furniture. When the furniture or cabinet made of large core board with high formaldehyde content is moved into the house, the formaldehyde released will be inhaled by the human body, which will stimulate the eyes, nose and other organs, which may cause abnormal lung function and liver function. And immune function declines, and even endangers life safety.

Optional: regular large core board exudes fragrance

The first choice for buying a large core board depends on whether it is a regular manufacturer's product. Check the manufacturer's trademark, production address, anti-counterfeiting mark and test report. Generally, the regular manufacturers produce test reports. The lower the detection value of formaldehyde should be. it is good.

Secondly, it depends on whether the appearance of the sheet is flat, whether it is warped, deformed, or recessed. Again, observe whether the core strip inside the sample sheet is even and tidy, and whether the core strip has decay, breakage, wormhole, thrift or the like. Under normal circumstances, the quality of the large core board with good appearance quality is also better.

In addition, be careful to smell, if the smell of wood is fragrant, it means that the amount of formaldehyde released is less; if the smell is pungent, it means that the amount of formaldehyde released is more. At the same time, it is best to leave a sample during construction. Once the project is finished, it is found that the indoor environmental pollution caused by the quality of the large core board can be used as the basis for judging responsibility.

However, products with the "green product" logo are not foolproof. At the time of purchase, the consumer must open the door and smell if there is a strong pungent smell inside.

If you are buying branded furniture, you can ask the sales staff carefully, ask them to explain the smell reasonably, and check the quality inspection certificate. If it passes the national inspection, some smells are inevitable with paints, adhesives, etc. After opening the door for a while, you can eliminate it.

If the furniture is selected, consumers and manufacturers should also sign relevant contracts. The commitment of the manufacturer is best to form a letter instead of a verbal commitment, so that consumers can defend their rights in the event of problems.
