Most people have encountered the problem of choosing building materials when decorating, and everyone knows that choosing the right materials will give you a healthy home for life; choosing the wrong materials will leave you with a bitter pill to swallow.

The sheer variety of building materials in the market can be overwhelming. How do you choose the right materials?

1. Healthy and environmentally friendly

When it comes to healthy homes, environmentally friendly materials are paramount. If the same material offers environmental grades such as E1, E0, and formaldehyde-free, formaldehyde-free is the preferred choice. However, if your budget is limited, we recommend E0. All eco-friendly, paint-free boards are E0 grade. If you choose a top ten brand of materials, you only need to select the color and pattern.

2. High quality and durable

Boards are a fundamental material in interior decoration, commonly used for cabinets, partitions, ceilings, and feature wall structures. These are all part of the hard furnishings and cannot be moved, altered, or easily removed. Therefore, the quality of the boards directly affects the lifespan of cabinets, partitions, ceilings, etc. Our boards are made from carefully selected high-quality logs, undergoing dozens of processing steps and a comprehensive quality inspection system to ensure their quality. Therefore, in addition to being healthy and environmentally friendly, our boards are also of excellent quality and durability.

3. Construction based on available materials

There are many types of boards, each with its own characteristics, so the selection of boards should be tailored to the specific materials used in construction. We offer a complete range of boards, including basic boards such as blockboard, plywood, engineered wood panels, veneer panels, and core boards; functional boards such as 360° formaldehyde-removing eco-boards, negative ion boards, and fire-retardant boards; and various furniture boards. Basic boards are used for the most basic home renovations and usually require secondary processing such as sanding and painting, while furniture boards can be used directly. Functional boards can be purchased according to customer needs.

When buying building materials for home renovation, you often hear terms like 3mm, 7mm, 9mm, 12mm, 15mm, and 18mm. Actually, "li" is a unit; 1 li = 1 millimeter, which is the thickness of a sheet of board. The standard dimensions of a board are generally 2440mm in length and 1220mm in width.

3mm board: mainly used as a substrate for veneer panels.

5mm, 7mm, and 9mm plywood: can be used as the base or back panel of furniture.

12mm, 15mm, and 18mm plywood: can be used directly for making furniture, etc.
