Is your furniture environmentally friendly? Indoor air pollution can be treated

In today's society, people pay more and more attention to environmental issues. As an indispensable necessities in work and life, the environmental protection of furniture has also become a hot spot of concern.

Solid wood furniture, environmentally friendly furniture

Some consumers think that solid wood furniture is definitely environmentally friendly because of its low formaldehyde content. This view is one-sided. At present, ordinary wood furniture will have a layer of paint on the surface, usually polyurethane paint, the professional name is PU paint, which requires a lot of thinner. Although the furniture can be basically dry in the factory, but the true complete drying, it needs to be odorless in about half a year, and the poor paint evaporation time will be longer. The volatiles of furniture mainly include benzene and organic compound volatiles, collectively known as TVOC, which has a large amount of volatilization and can account for 70% of all volatiles, which has a great impact on human health.

In addition, if the indoor air is up to standard, it is best to test the indoor air first. It is also impossible to measure the limit of harmful substances in furniture, and it can only be used as an indirect indicator. Indoor air quality is directly related to the loading rate of hazardous substances in various products and the superposition of harmful gases.

Indoor air pollution can be treated

Many people think that air pollution is very common and it is not well managed. This view is not accurate. The main reason for this misunderstanding is that consumers do not know the law of indoor pollution, and do not know how to solve it. According to the survey, a lot of consumers have this misunderstanding.

How to effectively control air pollution? Some consumers will seek help from indoor environmental management companies, using activated carbon, photocatalysts, and strong oxidants, and this is only an indicator to reduce some of the harmful substances. If it doesn't work, some governance companies increase the amount of oxidizer. The oxidant is a harmful substance, which causes new problems. In addition, some governance companies will also take some improper measures to deceive consumers, such as reducing indoor closure time, shorter than the 12 hours required by the national standard.

We should look for the root cause to solve the air pollution problem. Most of the decoration designers are from the art (art decoration effect map), are not familiar with the environmental indicators of the materials, and the pursuit of beauty in the decoration design, ignoring environmental protection. The insiders suggest that experts in materials and environmental protection should conduct environmental protection demonstrations at the design stage. Furthermore, in order to solve indoor air pollution more effectively, it should be planned and forecasted in advance, segmented and indexed. The sub-indicator is 1/3 of the decoration, and the furniture should account for 2/3 of the air quality limit. Choose furniture and accessories of different environmental protection levels according to the size and quantity of the living room. In addition, indoor air pollution can be controlled by means of a guaranteed loading rate.
