smell
Most of the wooden furniture on the market, except all solid wood furniture, have wood-based panel components. Therefore, it is important to smell the smell when purchasing. If it makes people cry and sneeze, it means that the amount of formaldehyde released from the furniture is relatively high, there may be a problem, do not buy it.
see report
Consumers ask the dealer for a quality inspection report to see if the formaldehyde emission from the furniture is within the range allowed by the standard. The national standard "Limits of Hazardous Substances in Wood Furniture for Interior Decoration Materials" stipulates that the amount of formaldehyde released in wood furniture should not be greater than 1.5 mg per liter. , Only the board that reaches the e1 level standard can be truly harmless to the human body.
The environmental protection level of furniture materials with less adhesives is selected from low to high: medium density board, particle board, large core board, plywood, laminated wood, glulam, and solid wood.
Avoid choosing furniture that is too brightly colored because most bright paints contain heavy metals such as lead. Tests have shown that among the 23 lead-containing paint samples, orange paint has the highest lead content, followed by yellow, green, and brown. At 1 meter from the ground, the lead concentration in the air is 16 times that at 1.5 meters, and the height of children is within this range [2] .
ask for price
Most of the wood furniture with excessive formaldehyde uses cheap artificial boards, so the price of the whole set of wood furniture is often "super low". Due to the extensive use of inferior glue in cheap man-made boards, the amount of formaldehyde released seriously exceeds the standard.
sign a contract
Customers are best to sign a "Furniture Sales Contract" when purchasing furniture, and write the environmental protection clauses into the contract.
When buying children's furniture, you must first carefully check whether the test report of the furniture is a simple board test or includes a paint test.

Secondly, it is best to choose furniture with less adhesive, and its formaldehyde content is relatively low. The environmental protection levels are arranged from low to high: medium density board, particle board, large core board, plywood, laminated timber, glulam, solid wood.
Third, don't believe the rhetoric of "zero formaldehyde", no matter if the furniture is made, it is impossible to "zero formaldehyde". Therefore, don't think that you have purchased zero formaldehyde furniture, and feel that everything is fine, and ignore air quality testing and other issues. Health always comes first.
Invoice
A lot of consumers are tempted by the low price of the dealers, take the white strips, receipts, etc. and walk away, and when there is a quality problem to complain, such informal invoices are often difficult to be used as valid evidence, so buying furniture must be To the dealer to issue a formal invoice.

The children's room is installed for the child's own use. Don't think that the child does not understand anything when he is young, so you can make up your own mind. Therefore, it is necessary to communicate with children more and listen to their thoughts and opinions, so that the matched house will be liked by the children and is the most suitable for them.
