Q&A
With the vigorous promotion of green buildings and green building materials, new building materials are springing up like mushrooms after rain. Faced with the various new types of panels on the market, it's important not only to screen for readily available information such as brand and certification, but also to understand the raw materials and production processes of each new material to gain a deeper understanding of its performance. How can you quickly and multi-dimensionally understand a new type of panel? This allows you to select high-quality materials that meet project construction requirements while also reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and improving quality. Xiaojing will answer the following key questions one by one.
about
Product performance description
Different materials are produced through different processes. The differences in raw material formulas lead to the inclusion of keywords of various chemical elements in product names, which cannot provide effective support for understanding product performance. Different manufacturers also have different explanations of product performance. In actual project use, based on the usage scenarios, the keywords that are of particular concern are as follows:
Nail holding force
Nail holding strength refers to the ability of a board to hold a nail. In simple terms, it refers to whether a nail easily stays in place after being driven into the board, or whether it easily becomes loose and falls out. When a nail is driven into the board, the wood fibers surrounding the nail are separated, exerting pressure on the nail and creating friction that resists the nail. The greater this friction, the less likely the nail will become loose, and the more secure it is, indicating a stronger nail holding strength. Nail holding strength also depends on the board's density, hardness, elasticity, moisture content, grain direction, and other factors. Boards with good nail holding strength generally have greater hardness, strength, and density. Of course, nail holding strength is also related to the craftsmanship of the nail.
Despite its ultra-low density of 0.85±0.05kg/m³, Zhongjing Building Materials' baseboard series boasts a nail-holding force of ≥1200N. A single nail can support a load of 20kg, ensuring no worries of falling off when hanging a TV, air conditioner, or other household appliances. It can replace traditional baseboards, and its nail-holding performance is sufficient to fill in gaps in projects where other traditional boards cannot, allowing for multiple uses, thereby reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
Environmental Regulation
The green buildings and green spaces required by the general trend of the industry use the green cycle concept in architectural design to link multiple links to form a space that conforms to the concept of green and sustainable development. In the selection of materials, green, safe and healthy are the basic thresholds. Materials that can help form and maintain green spaces are more popular.
Zhongjing Building Materials' baseboard series products are low-density panels with high moisture absorption and release properties, effectively regulating indoor humidity. They function as eco-friendly panels, preventing condensation from forming on the panels and damaging other surface structures and functions. Whether the project is located in the arid north, the misty south of the Yangtze River, or the perpetually springy southwest, the walls and ceilings within the space can leverage their inherent properties to release environmental regulation. While these changes may not be visible to the naked eye, they provide the space with a long-lasting, healthy, comfortable, and secure environment.
Smooth surface
In traditional renovation construction, grinding and leveling is an essential step. Not only does the dust created during construction seriously impact the health of workers, but the time and labor required for grinding and leveling alone are significant cost components of a project. In an environment that advocates for both improvements and reductions, choosing the right materials is crucial to reducing steps and improving efficiency.
The "Jing'an Board" in Zhongjing Building Materials' base board series has an extremely high surface flatness, which can achieve surface finishing work such as direct application of latex paint or pasting of wallpaper without putty (plastering), effectively reducing construction procedures and achieving cost reduction and efficiency improvement for the project.

Product process explanation
Solid-color painted panels, created by curing paint onto inorganic sheet materials, have opened up new avenues for wall decoration. Unlike wall decorations applied with paint or wallpaper, solid-color painted panels offer fast construction and easy assembly, while also ensuring the integrity of the architectural space design. Solid-color painted panels are also environmentally friendly and healthy, as they differ in surface finish and curing technology. Different manufacturers also experience subtle variations in surface gloss.
EB electron beam curing
EB curing technology uses an electron beam as a radiation source to induce the rapid conversion of specially formulated, 100% solids materials (such as EB coatings and inks) into a solid state. Ford, in the United States, pioneered this technology abroad in the 1970s, applying it to the coating of automotive parts. However, it wasn't until around 2004 that some printing companies in China began introducing EB curing equipment, primarily for the application of varnishes. EB curing effectively reduces carbon dioxide and VOC emissions, making it more environmentally friendly. Its efficient curing process involves the electron beam triggering a chain growth reaction in the ink, resulting in a shorter curing time, significantly faster than UV curing. Coatings cured using this technology offer a more durable finish. Experimental testing has shown that color retention can last up to 25 years.
Water-based plant-based
The transition from oil-to-water paint to paint is a shared challenge for the entire home furnishing industry and a crucial milestone in its development. While prioritizing environmental protection, the shift is driven by considerations of efficiency and the industry's ability to adapt to future changes. Driven by a return to nature and a green, low-carbon approach, water-based, plant-based materials are a hot topic in the market. After years of implementation and integration, water-based paint has gained widespread recognition among brands within the home furnishing industry and, with technological support, is poised for widespread adoption.
The "gauze-like" panels in Zhongjing Building Materials' crystal-coated panel series are the world's first to combine a water-based, plant-based coating with green, inorganic panel materials. Jointly developed by Zhongjing Building Materials and chemical giant Covestro, these panels are constructed from lightweight crystal panels as the base material and a plant-based, water-based coating applied to the inorganic panel surface. The decorative surface layer utilizes a water-based, plant-based resin coating that emits extremely low formaldehyde and TVOC emissions, is non-toxic and odorless, and is environmentally friendly. The panel surface offers a premium, soft, gauze-like feel and a high-quality texture, making it a favorite among designers. The surface also features a hydrophobic coating, is fingerprint-resistant, and is scrubbable.
In summary, we understand the board from the perspective of product performance and product technology. In the future, there will be more understandings of the dimensions, so please continue to pay attention. Zhongjing Building Materials Exhibition Hall, waiting for your visit!
