A few days ago, the National Standardization Technical Committee sponsored the "Limited Quantity of Hazardous Substances in Wood Furniture", "Climate Chamber for Detection of Volatile Organic Compounds in Furniture", and "Measurement of Volatile Organic Compounds in Furniture". Held in Shanghai, making clear regulations on the limits of harmful substances in furniture.
Furniture health will have newer standards and more secure home security. Zhu Changling, chairman of the current standard loose China Furniture Association, said that the new national standard is more scientific, more rigorous, and the testing content is more diverse, and the protection for consumers is more comprehensive.
Last year, the Guangzhou Municipal Quality Supervision Bureau issued a test report on furniture. The report shows that the quality of furniture in the market is still not optimistic. In particular, the problem of excessive formaldehyde emission in panel furniture is more serious. In products that are not tested, formaldehyde Exceeding the standard accounted for more than 30%. According to the analysis, the main reason for the excessive formaldehyde is that the manufacturer used unqualified wood-based panels and inferior adhesives to reduce costs.
The National Furniture Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center stated that China's furniture products have rarely used solid wood, and most of the panel furniture uses fiberboard or particleboard bonding. In this way, adhesives should be used for veneering and edge sealing. Adhesives are the source of formaldehyde.
Don't look at the fact that there are so many furniture formaldehyde in the market. In fact, compared with the relevant standards in Europe and the United States, China's testing standards for formaldehyde emission from furniture are relatively loose: China's formaldehyde content testing for furniture still follows the standards introduced in 2001. In the standard, the amount of formaldehyde released is not more than 1.5 mg/L.
The detection method is difficult to control the rights. There is also a big difference between China and the United States. China uses the "dryer method" for the detection of furniture products, and the "environmental test warehouse method" for the United States. The difference between the two is that the American method Without destroying the furniture product as a whole, the furniture is placed in the environmental chamber to collect the gas, and the inspection process does not damage the structure of the furniture. The biggest advantage is that the inspection process simulates the use environment of the furniture, which is consistent with the actual situation; The method of cutting furniture into small pieces for testing is a destructive test that not only destroys the furniture, but also differs from the reality of the use of furniture.
The difference in detection methods makes consumers more inconvenienced in defending their rights. According to media reports, a complaint about furniture that was not environmentally friendly last May reflected the helplessness of consumers under the old standards. When Mr. Guo detected the empty room, the indoor air quality reached the standard, and the furniture was tested and the indoor air quality was not up to standard. He reported the situation to the furniture dealers. The other party said that the furniture was up to standard. If Mr. Guo thinks that the furniture is not up to standard, he can send the furniture to the relevant department and conduct destructive testing according to the current national standard. If it does not meet the standard, the dealer is willing to bear the corresponding responsibility. Otherwise, Mr. Guo will bear it.
This said that Mr. Guo is very embarrassed. According to the expert's explanation, the home he purchased may have reached the national standard because of the proportional sampling test, but the use of wood is too large, and the superposition of harmful substances causes the indoor air quality to fail to meet the standard, thus destroying The results of the sex test are not necessarily beneficial to him. Mr. Guo has to bear the risk that the furniture will be destroyed but no compensation will be awarded.
The new standard will have three breakthroughs and the implementation of the new national standard will better protect consumers' home safety. According to Zhu Changling, the revised new furniture testing standard will demonstrate its advantages in three aspects.
Good 1: Overall inspection, the results are more reliable. The new standard can more accurately reflect the overall actual release of the toxic and hazardous substances sent to the inspector. This method will help consumers control the environmental protection coefficient of furniture more scientifically and rigorously.
Good 2: Non-destructive testing, low detection risk. The new climate chamber detection method is much more advanced than the current method, making up for the loopholes in the current detection method, placing the whole piece of furniture in a specific environment for testing, and the furniture itself does not have any degree of damage, which is for the consumer. Good thing, if the test results are not satisfactory, you can ask the merchant for compensation. If the test results are up to standard, then you can spend some testing fees, or you can buy a reassurance.
Good 3: Environmentally friendly furniture, more authentic. The climate chamber test can include all parts of the furniture into the detection range, and can detect the overall environmental protection status. It can also determine the release amount of harmful substances such as furniture VOC while detecting formaldehyde, and the detection result is more comprehensive and reliable.
