Home improvement building materials catty floor to guard against five traps

Strengthen the "four traps" of floor consumption

Trap One - "Counterfeit Imports"

Some brands promoted their products overseas under the guise of “100% import”. In fact, they imported only a small part of the product, and most of them used domestic materials and technology to produce. In order to prove the "authenticity" of its imports, it is also possible to issue import declaration forms and certificate of origin, and promise to pay 10% off. This is a kind of publicity and dishonesty. Consumers cannot blindly buy.

Trap two - "wear-resistant revolution counterfeit"

Businesses made counterfeit data on floor wear-resistant rotations, claiming that the number of floor wear-resistant rotations was up to 20,000 rpm. The number of wear-resisting revolutions is in accordance with the national standard, and the household floor is ≥6000 revolutions and the commercial floor is ≥9000 revolutions. At the same time, the higher the number of turns, the easier it is to be brittle, the greater the hardness is, the less the toughness is, and with the insufficient clarity of perspective, many other negative results will follow. Therefore, consumers can not rely on suspicion, pay attention to wear-resisting speed and ignore other indicators and comprehensive performance of the floor.

Trap 3 - "Exaggerate Function"

Said that the floor has antibacterial, geothermal free glue, waterproof, anti-static and other functions, so that consumers such as "look in the fog," in fact, there is no lack of exaggeration, deceive consumers. Consumers must keep their eyes open and do not have to chase some new concepts. Rational consumption is the key.

Trap four - "virtual environmental protection"

Many people choose non-toxic, harmless, health and environmental protection as the first choice when purchasing flooring. The state has already listed the environmental protection system as a basic national policy. The environmental terms such as E1 and E0 in the flooring industry are endless, and even the name of “formaldehyde free flooring” has been played. In fact, in the production process of floors, in order to ensure the floor bonding strength and wear resistance, most of them use adhesives or paints containing formaldehyde more or less. The key is to ensure that the floor and its supporting materials are environmentally friendly to avoid formaldehyde. The cumulative content is harmful to health. After free formaldehyde reaches a certain concentration, it is harmful to the human body. The national standard for free formaldehyde on wood floor is lower than 1.5 mg/L.

Solid wood floor consumption "five traps"

Trap one--"sneaked in the work"

According to national standards, the width of the floor of the floor must reach 4 mm, and it can be really firm after installation. At present, on the market, there are many small workshops to produce the floor, the mouth width of its mouth is generally only 3 mm, consumers are not aware. There are wedges on both sides of the floor of the shelf, commonly known as the “public bath”. Because the width and thickness of the outlet are easily seen by consumers when calculating the floor area, the producers want to achieve “improved wood utilization”. "Reducing costs" is only a matter of the width of the company's mouth. Taking a 900 mm long and 90 mm wide floor as an example, a 905 mm long and 95 mm wide wood is required. If the mouth width is reduced to 3 mm, the required wood area will be reduced accordingly. Such a long-term accumulation of time is a great "windfall" for producers.

Trap 2 - "Is it real?"

For the average consumer, it is impossible to identify the authenticity of the wood. After processing the floor, it is even more difficult for consumers to identify wood species. Some unscrupulous merchants, therefore, use some cheaper wood species to pretend to use expensive wood species, such as “gray wood lotus” to “taste teak wood” in order to obtain profits.

Trap three - "mixed fish and dragons"

At present, there are thousands of floor brands in China. Consumers first look at their trademark registration certificates when they purchase flooring. If the brand is foreign, it should have a foreign trademark registration certificate.

Trap four - "hanging sheep's head, selling dog meat"

Many floor dealers are affiliated with some well-known flooring brands, but they sell a lot of brand-name products. It is reported that the price transparency of well-known brands is easy to attract customers, while the sale of brand-name is to seek higher profits.

Trap Five - "Three No Products"

When consumers purchase wood flooring, they should pay attention to whether there is a factory name, address, telephone number and product implementation standard on the product packaging. If there is no “three non-products”, it must not be purchased blindly.
