Furniture formaldehyde testing should be strictly regulated

Among the results of the regular sampling inspection of 7 kinds of local products announced by the Guangdong Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau, 41 batches of wood furniture showed the phenomenon of excessive formaldehyde; the third quarter of the province issued a quality supervision and inspection notice issued by the Shaanxi Provincial Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision, showing children's furniture Nearly 20% of the unqualified batches involved formaldehyde emission; Shenyang Municipal Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision on the quality inspection of furniture quality inspection results show that the qualified rate of Shenyang wood furniture products is only 75%, the main problem is that formaldehyde emission exceeds the standard. The formaldehyde emission of individual manufacturers even exceeds the national standard by 20 times...

Judging from the results of the sampling inspection of furniture released by many provinces and cities in October this year, formaldehyde is still a long-standing problem.

Direct skin contact can cause allergic dermatitis, pigmentation, necrosis; high concentration inhalation, prone to nausea and vomiting, cough and chest tightness, asthma or even pulmonary edema; long-term exposure to low doses of formaldehyde, can cause nasopharyngeal carcinoma, brain tumor, nucleus genes Mutation 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?

The environmental protection of furniture products is closely related to the raw materials of the plates. At present, the standards for plate products in China are many and not uniform. China's furniture industry is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises. Some unscrupulous enterprises exist in the manufacture of furniture, “it is low or not high”, and in the case of propaganda, “there is no high or low” phenomenon, and even some furniture enterprises have played “green environmental protection, The flag of zero formaldehyde. Anyone who knows a little about furniture knows that most of the furniture needs to be processed through multiple processes such as veneering, painting, and edge sealing. Among them, a lot of adhesives will be used, and it is almost impossible to make "zero formaldehyde".

Regardless of whether the furniture can achieve "zero formaldehyde", for most small furniture companies, more consideration should be given to how to meet the current national standards. In the national standard "Indoor Decoration Materials, Formaldehyde Release of Wood-based Panels and Their Products" (GB18580-2001), the formaldehyde limit grade is divided into two grades, 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, and it should never be regarded as a stumbling block to the development of furniture companies. If the furniture produced by the furniture company exceeds the standard of formaldehyde emission, it cannot be said that the national standard is too high. It can only be said that the enterprise should reflect on itself.

Profitability is the core and life of the company, but for furniture companies that really want to become bigger and stronger, they should focus on improving product innovation capability, production capacity, and expanding sales channels, instead of deceiving consumers to sacrifice consumption. The health of the person seeks benefits at the expense of it.

In view of the current non-uniformity of plate standards in China, the relevant standards development departments should pay attention to it, and strive to standardize and unify the testing methods of similar products. The industry and commerce, quality supervision and other departments should also strengthen market sampling and strict market access mechanisms to promote healthy and healthy development of the furniture industry.
