Parents all want to provide a safe environment for children to grow up, but what kind of children's furniture should they buy for children ? Which kind of children's furniture has environmental protection performance is guaranteed? For these issues, parents do not know very well, and they are often guided by purchase Take the nose and walk. Some claim that colored furniture is beneficial to children's intellectual development, while others say that light-colored furniture has less harmful substances such as heavy metals. These different claims are about to confuse parents.
The color depth has nothing to do with harmful substances
There are many brands of children's furniture in various home furnishing stores, and the stores often set a large area as a children's furniture monopoly area. This shows that consumers attach great importance to children's furniture and have spurred the rapid development of this industry.
Some furniture is particularly bright, and it is not recommended to buy it. The brighter the paint, the more the heavy metal content. You see, the colors of our children's furniture are mostly softer, more environmentally safe. "The salesperson of a brand store introduced this way. Parents listened to nodding frequently, and a consumer immediately signed an order with the salesperson and bought a bed, desk, seat and other products with a total price of more than 8,000 yuan."
In another brand store, the author said to the shopping guide: "The color of your children's furniture is too bright, is it not environmentally friendly?" The salesperson immediately said: "No, our furniture meets environmental protection requirements, and there are tests here. Report, do n’t believe it. â€She told the author:“ Children ’s nature determines that they like bright colors such as red, yellow, and green, and the use of colored furniture helps children ’s intellectual development. â€The test report provided by them only The formaldehyde content of furniture is indicated, and it is not mentioned whether the content of heavy metals such as lead and cadmium meets the standard.
Many sales staff often introduce to consumers that colorful children's furniture must use heavy metals for color development, and brightly colored paints mostly contain lead. Therefore, when buying children's furniture, you should choose lighter-colored furniture.
In response to this statement, the Secretary General of China Furniture Association does not agree. She said that in fact, the color of the paint has nothing to do with harmful substances. The brighter the furniture, the more heavy metals it contains is wrong. The lighter color does not mean less harmful substances. As long as the paint contains heavy metals, it has nothing to do with the color. Therefore, for the heavy metal content of paint, the manufacturer should have a test report, and consumers should request to check when buying.
Solid wood furniture is not necessarily environmentally friendly
"Because parents are most concerned about children's health, environmental protection and safety are the first factors they consider when buying children's furniture, so the selling point of children's furniture is often not price, but environmental protection and safety." A head of a children's furniture brand said.
"Our children's furniture is made of pine wood, there is no formaldehyde, and it is particularly environmentally friendly." This statement by the sales staff has been recognized by many consumers. It is often thought that solid wood furniture sheets are more environmentally friendly, so people can rest assured that they do not have to check the test report.
In this regard, the director of the National Indoor Environment and Indoor Environmental Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center said that if it is not natural all solid wood furniture, adhesives will also be used in the production, and there will be a problem of formaldehyde emissions. In particular, the amount of solid wood veneer furniture adhesives is greater, so solid wood furniture does not necessarily mean that the environmental protection indicators meet the standard. In addition, solid wood furniture is usually painted, so it is necessary to pay attention to the heavy metal content of the paint. The surface of the wood-based furniture is made of thin wood or grain paper, and the surface color is the color of the wood grain paper and other materials. Although it does not contain heavy metals, the furniture material is mostly wood-based board. Meet the standard.
The environmental protection levels of the plates are arranged from low to high: medium density board, particle board, large core board, plywood, laminate, integrated wood, solid wood. When consumers buy children's furniture, they should carefully check the furniture test report, including both the plate test and the paint test. In addition, the full name of water-based paint is water-based wood paint, different from the concept of paint, in terms of environmental performance, it is indeed much more environmentally friendly. But even if the furniture is water-based paint, it is still recommended that consumers check the relevant test report when buying.
