I believe that most people have encountered the problem of selecting materials for decoration, and everyone knows that if you choose the right board, you will have a healthy home for life; if you choose the wrong one, you will have to swallow your anger and suffer in silence.

There are so many types of boards in the building materials market that it’s really dizzying. How do you choose the right ones?

1. Healthy and environmentally friendly

A healthy home is a must, and choosing the right board material is crucial. If the same board material is rated E1, E0, or formaldehyde-free, then formaldehyde-free is the preferred choice. If your budget is limited, we recommend choosing E0. All paint-free eco-friendly boards are E0-rated. If you're choosing from one of the top ten board brands, you only need to choose the pattern.

2. Good quality and durable

Wood panels are a fundamental material in interior design, commonly used for cabinets, partitions, ceilings, and background wall structures. These panels are hard-mounted components of a renovation and cannot be moved, altered, or easily dismantled. Therefore, the quality of these panels directly impacts the lifespan of these components. The raw materials used for these panels are carefully selected high-quality logs, processed through dozens of processing steps, and aligned with a comprehensive quality inspection system to ensure their quality. Therefore, in addition to being healthy and environmentally friendly, these panels also boast excellent durability.

3. Construction based on “materials”

There are many types of boards, and each has its own characteristics, so the selection of boards should be based on the material. There are a full range of board types, including basic boards such as blockboard, plywood, integrated board, veneer, and core board; functional boards such as 360° formaldehyde-removing ecological board, negative ion board, and flame-retardant board; and various furniture boards. Basic boards are used for the most basic home decoration and usually require secondary processing such as sanding and painting in the later stage, while furniture boards can be used directly. Functional boards can be purchased according to customer needs.

When buying boards for decoration, you often hear about 3cm boards, 7cm boards, 9cm boards, 12cm boards, 15cm boards, and 18cm boards. In fact, "cm is a unit, 1cm = 1mm, which is the thickness of a board". The specifications of the boards are generally 2440MM long and 1220MM wide.

3cm board: mainly used as the substrate for veneer panels.

5cm board, 7cm board, 9cm board: can be used as the bottom or back board of furniture.

12cm boards, 15cm boards and 18cm boards: can be used directly to make furniture, etc.
