When can furniture formaldehyde emissions meet national standards

In the third quarter of the province ’s quality supervision random inspection announcement issued by the Shaanxi Provincial Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau, nearly 20% of children ’s furniture failed, and the unqualified batches involved formaldehyde emissions; 7 local products announced by the Guangdong Quality Supervision Bureau were regularly sampled In the results, 41 batches of wooden furniture exhibited excessive formaldehyde; the results of the random inspection of furniture quality supervision by Shenyang Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau showed that the qualification rate of wooden furniture products produced in Shenyang was only 75%, and the main problem was that the formaldehyde emissions exceeded the standard. The amount of formaldehyde released by some manufacturers even exceeds the national standard by 20 times ...

Direct skin contact can cause allergic dermatitis, stains, and necrosis; high concentration inhalation is prone to nausea and vomiting, coughing chest tightness, wheezing, and even pulmonary edema; long-term exposure to low-dose formaldehyde can cause nasopharyngeal carcinoma, brain tumors, and nuclear genes Mutations and so on. Faced with the many hazards caused by formaldehyde, consumers can't help but ask, when can furniture formaldehyde not exceed the standard?

        Whether furniture products are environmentally friendly or not is closely related to the raw materials of sheet metal, because there are many and inconsistent standards for sheet metal in China. China's furniture industry is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises. Some unhealthy enterprises have the phenomenon of "lower than high" during furniture manufacturing, "higher than low" during publicity, and even some furniture companies "Formaldehyde-free" banner. Anyone who knows a little about furniture knows that most of the furniture needs to be processed through multiple processes such as veneer, paint, and edge banding. A large amount of adhesive is used, and it is almost impossible to achieve "zero formaldehyde".

In the national standard "Formaldehyde emission from interior decoration materials, wood-based panels and their products" (GB18580-2001), the formaldehyde limit level is divided into two levels, namely E2≤5.0mg / L and E1≤1.5mg / L. According to industry experts, this national standard is the minimum requirement for furniture companies in terms of environmental protection. It should never be regarded as a stumbling block for the development of furniture companies. If the formaldehyde produced by furniture companies exceeds the standard, it cannot be said that the national standards are too high, it can only be said that the companies should reflect on themselves.

For furniture brand companies that really want to grow bigger and stronger , profit is the core and life, but the focus should be on improving product innovation capabilities, production capacity, and expanding sales channels, rather than deceiving consumers to sacrifice consumer health. Seek benefits for the price.

In view of the current non-uniformity of sheet metal standards in China, the relevant standard-setting departments should pay attention to it and commit to standardizing standards and unifying the testing methods of similar products. Departments of industry and commerce, quality supervision and other departments should also strengthen market sampling inspection, strict market access mechanism, and promote the healthy and healthy development of the furniture industry.
