Every mom and dad wants to buy a cute and beautiful set of children's furniture for their babies. There are many kinds of children's furniture products on the market, such as solid wood children's beds, children's desks and chairs, and children's wardrobes. . . Various styles and materials: Korean garden, solid wood, board wood, etc. Solid wood children's furniture is very popular. Pure solid wood children's furniture has high requirements on craftsmanship and materials. Selection, drying, finger jointing and jointing of solid wood, etc. The requirements are very strict. Therefore, you should pay attention to the following problems when buying children's furniture:

Health always comes first


Due to the general veneer treatment, the artificial board furniture is the same as the solid wood veneer furniture, only the formaldehyde emission amount needs to be considered, and whether the harmful heavy metals exceed the standard is not considered. Some people in the industry believe that heavy metal must be used for the color of the colorful panel furniture. When buying children's furniture , try to choose the lighter colors for the painted furniture. If solid wood furniture is generally painted, you need to pay attention to whether the heavy metal content of the paint exceeds the standard.

Related color: the lighter the color, the less harmful substances?

Most parents are unaware of the fact that paint contains heavy metals in painted furniture. When asked if it contains heavy metals, salespeople usually also emphasize that the brand uses European or Australian water-based paint, which meets European or domestic standards to prove that the furniture surface does not contain heavy metals or the heavy metals contained in the standard .

Some people in the industry believe that heavy metal must be used for the color of the colorful panel furniture. When buying children's furniture, try to choose the lighter colors for the painted furniture. Is this right?

The more colorful the furniture, the more heavy metals it contains is wrong. If it is a veneer furniture of artificial board type, the color of the furniture is owned by the veneer itself, and there is no saying that it contains heavy metals. For solid wood painted furniture, whether it is colorless or colored, as long as it is paint, it will contain heavy metals, regardless of the depth of the color. For the heavy metal content of paint, the manufacturer should have a test report, consumers can pay attention to check when buying.

The full name of water-based paint is water-based wood paint, which is a relative concept with paint. In terms of environmental performance, water-based paint is indeed much more environmentally friendly. But even if water-based paint is used, consumers are still advised to read relevant test reports when purchasing.

Relevant hazardous substances: low formaldehyde content = environmental protection?

Consumers Ms. Wang and Mr. Zhang believe that children's furniture with low formaldehyde content is environmentally friendly furniture. There are many parents who hold this view. In the furniture store, the salesmen generally emphasize the formaldehyde content of the furniture when introducing the environmental performance of the furniture, and repeatedly emphasize the low formaldehyde content of the furniture, so the environmental performance can be assured. As for Other aspects related to environmental performance such as benzene and heavy metal lead, most sales staff will not mention it.

Environmental protection is just a relative concept, and there is generally no argument for environmentally friendly furniture. For furniture, the country has corresponding standards for hazardous substances, and the correct expression should be that the amount of hazardous substances released by the furniture meets the standards. For example, the harmful substances contained in wooden furniture are formaldehyde emission and heavy metal content in paint; the harmful substances in cloth furniture are benzene and some volatile organic compounds; stone furniture requires radioactivity.

Although the country has relevant regulations, not all products on the market are combined products, and there will still be some products that do not meet the standards. Because children have weaker resistance and health is more susceptible to harm, consumers should not only pay attention to the amount of formaldehyde released when buying furniture, but also pay attention to their harmful substance content according to the corresponding furniture material. If solid wood furniture is generally painted, you need to pay attention to whether the heavy metal content of the paint exceeds the standard.

Relevant material: Solid wood is more environmentally friendly than plate?

In the eyes of many consumers, solid wood furniture does not require lacquer, and the board itself is more environmentally friendly. Therefore, there is a concept that solid wood furniture must be more environmentally friendly than sheet furniture. But as soon as they reach the market, the sales staff will explain that the surface of the solid wood furniture should also be coated with varnish, and the solid wood furniture will also use adhesives. So, how to understand the environmental performance of solid wood furniture and sheet furniture?

Solid wood furniture needs to be clarified whether it is all solid wood furniture, solid wood furniture or solid wood veneer furniture. If it is not natural solid wood furniture, adhesives will also be used in the plate of all solid wood furniture, and there will also be the problem of formaldehyde emission; solid wood furniture and board wood combined furniture will also involve formaldehyde emission. In addition, this kind of furniture is usually painted, and it is also necessary to consider whether the content of harmful heavy metals exceeds the standard.

Due to the general veneer treatment, the artificial board furniture is the same as the solid wood veneer furniture, only the formaldehyde emission amount needs to be considered, and whether the harmful heavy metals exceed the standard is not considered. (Editor: Peter)
