Recently, children's homes have received attention, and Beijing, Jiangsu, Guangdong and other places have repeatedly failed to pass the sampling of children's furniture. The child is the parent's baby, the parents hope that the child can grow up healthy and happy, and the furniture is the child's contact with a lot of items. So in the mixed fish market, how do parents distinguish between good and bad furniture? Misunderstanding 1: Solid wood furniture = low formaldehyde In the eyes of many consumers, solid wood furniture does not need to use paint, and the board itself is more environmentally friendly. Therefore, there is a concept that solid wood furniture must be more environmentally friendly than sheet furniture. In fact, the surface of solid wood furniture should also be varnished, solid wood furniture will also use adhesives, especially solid wood veneer furniture, so buy solid wood furniture to find out all solid wood furniture or solid wood veneer furniture. In addition, if it is not natural solid wood furniture, all solid wood furniture will also use adhesives in the plates, there will also be the problem of formaldehyde emission; solid wood furniture and board wood combined with furniture, may also involve the problem of excessive formaldehyde emission. Misunderstanding 2: light color = less harmful substances Many people think that heavy-colored panel furniture must use heavy metal to develop color. When purchasing children's furniture, try to choose light-painted furniture. In fact, the color of the paint has nothing to do with harmful substances. The more colorful the furniture, the more heavy metals it contains. As long as it is paint, it contains heavy metals, regardless of the depth of the color. For the heavy metal content of the paint, the manufacturer should have a test report, and the consumer can pay attention to the inspection when purchasing. The full name of water-based paint is water-based wood lacquer, which is the opposite concept of paint. In terms of environmental performance, water-based paints are indeed much more environmentally friendly. However, even if water-based paint is used, it is recommended that consumers check the relevant test report when purchasing. Misunderstanding 3: Low formaldehyde = environmental protection Many parents think that children's furniture with low formaldehyde content is environmentally friendly furniture. In fact, the environmental performance of furniture also involves benzene, heavy metal lead and so on. Environmental protection is only a relative concept. For furniture, the state has a corresponding limit standard for harmful substances, and its indicator is the amount of harmful substances released from furniture. For example, the index of wood furniture is the amount of formaldehyde released and the heavy metal content in the paint; fabric furniture depends on the persuasive power of benzene and some volatile organic compounds; stone furniture has requirements for radioactivity. Although the state has relevant regulations, the products on the market are not all qualified products. Because children's resistance is weaker and health is more vulnerable to harm, consumers should not only pay attention to the amount of formaldehyde released when purchasing furniture. Their harmful substances should be paid attention to according to the corresponding furniture materials. Source: Xianghe Furniture City official website garden decoration, garden gifts, garden tools.
