Redwood furniture new national standard is difficult to prevent mahogany fraud

Recently, the National Standard for General Technical Conditions of Redwood Furniture (hereinafter referred to as the new national standard) was approved by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the National Standardization Administration, and will be officially implemented on August 1 this year. It is understood that since the previous mahogany furniture standard has been implemented for 11 years, many standards are not clear, the mahogany furniture market has been chaotic, making it difficult for consumers to find out what is real mahogany. Although the introduction of the new national standard, the industry is generally considered to be an improvement, but they also believe that the implementation of the new national standard will be difficult, and the effect in the market is also very limited.

status quo

The mahogany furniture market is chaotic

False refilling, shoddy, counterfeiting, etc. have always been a phenomenon that has been repeatedly banned in the mahogany market. The reporter visited Lecong Furniture City and found that there are not many mahogany furniture in Foshan, but the price is more chaotic. Due to the variety of mahogany furniture, people who are not experts can't see what material is made from the appearance. Mr. Li, who runs a mahogany furniture store in Lecong, told reporters that the field of mahogany furniture has always been deep, and the eyes of ordinary consumers are mostly not "skilled". It is understood that the current chaos in the mahogany furniture market is mostly caused by fraud, over-branding and price chaos.

According to industry insiders, the previous national standard stipulated that in the production of mahogany furniture, the use of a small amount of white edge does not affect the overall structure and aesthetics, but some businesses do not go to the white side, all used in the production of mahogany furniture There are also some cheap wood interspersed in the mahogany, only to do some treatment on the surface, making it difficult for laymen to distinguish.

In addition, most shops selling wooden furniture will produce “100% solid wood” signs, but many of them are “solid wood furniture” that are forged by the skin. It is difficult for ordinary consumers to distinguish their use with the naked eye. What is the material. Some so-called "pure solid wood furniture" use "multi-layer boards, particleboards, and even medium-density boards" in the backsheets, drawer boards, and other parts that consumers are not easy to notice, selling "impurity" furniture "pure". The price, from which to earn a high price difference.

New national standard

Mahogany furniture with "ID card"

Then, can these chaos be solved? Recently, the new national standard was approved by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the National Standardization Administration, and will be officially implemented on August 1 this year. It is reported that the new national standard prepared this time mainly includes ten items such as the scope, terminology and definition, requirements, quality indication and test method of mahogany furniture. For the first time, the standard defines and regulates the definition of mahogany furniture, and stipulates the designation and identification of mahogany furniture by the name of the tree species in which the product is mainly used. Different from the old national standard restrictions on tree species, the new national standard advocates the development and use of new types of mahogany wood, and requires pre-production wood to be tested.

In addition, the new national standard also clearly stipulates that each piece of mahogany furniture must be accompanied by an "identity card", that is, "the mahogany furniture product quality express card." It is understood that the current mahogany furniture sold in the mall is only a simple label of the size and materials of the furniture, and there is no uniform specification. Therefore, many merchants make a fuss about this "vulnerability". It’s not the case that the goods are not right. The new national standard stipulates that the "ID card" must be equipped with mahogany furniture products, which stipulates that the product must not only be clearly marked, but also the label specifications are uniform. If the consumer finds that the product is "not right," the "identity card" can be used as evidence for appeals and claims. .

It is understood that the contents of the “ID card” should include at least the product execution standard, product classification, product name, product model, specification, production date, main product materials, product finishing and decoration process, product warranty and product delivery party information (production). Corporate or dealer information).

Industry sound

New national standard effect will be limited

The introduction of the new national standard, can inhibit the chaos of the mahogany furniture market, and regulate the mahogany furniture market? Mr. Li said that as a merchant, it is a good thing to think that the introduction of the new national standard is "standardizing the relevant standards of the mahogany market, and also making The mahogany furniture is relatively transparent, and those 'fake mahogany' can also be regulated.” He said that as long as there is not much conflict between the old and new national standards, it is a good thing for the merchants.

Gao Hongbin, executive deputy secretary-general of the Foshan Furniture Industry Association, also believes that the introduction of the new national standard for mahogany furniture has a certain effect on regulating the mahogany furniture market. “But the implementation of the market will be difficult because there are more fake mahogany furniture in the Chinese market. Experts come to evaluate.” Gao Hongbin believes that regulating the mahogany furniture market is not effective only by introducing a new national standard.

An industry insider who did not want to be named said that the new national standard could not block the falsification. "The new national standard has expanded the scope of the redwood, which in fact gives the bad business more room for fraud." The person said that the redwood was not just A product is inherently difficult to define, and the introduction of the national standard has limited effect on the healthy development of the mahogany furniture market.
