Still wasting? Use these tips to save on board materials!

Nowadays, we advocate saving. When eating, we advocate finishing the plate. When decorating with panels, we should also pay attention to the rational use of them, so as to save money for ourselves! So how can we save panels when making panel furniture?

Component specifications

The specifications of artificial boards are basically imperial sizes (such as 4 feet × 8 feet, that is, 1220mm × 2440mm). Panel furniture is made of artificial boards. Therefore, if we determine the specifications of the components to 392, 595, 195 and other sizes that are suitable for the specifications of the raw materials, it will improve the utilization rate of the boards and reduce waste.

Furthermore, after ensuring that the component specifications match the raw material specifications, we also consider whether the dimensions can be reduced further. For example, for a drawer side panel, we set its width at 1150mm, while the raw material width is generally 1220mm. This dimension is very conducive to improving the yield rate.

Thickness of the component

Furniture production has many conventions, both good and bad. For example, northern furniture tends to be heavy and bulky, often using thick and large boards. This can be detrimental to material utilization in some cases. For example, drawer side panels are often 16mm or 18mm thick, while many southern manufacturers have already adopted 12mm thick boards for their high-end furniture.

Practice has proved that this size has withstood the test of both shape and strength. By extension, some small shelves, partitions, and even side panels and top panels (such as bedside tables) can use 12mm thin boards.

Component structure

Many components, such as side panels and partitions, require thicker boards for the sake of shape and use. At this time, thin boards cannot be used to save materials, but we can use a packaged structure, which is often called a "hollow structure", that is, a wooden frame made of wood, and then covered with plywood. This approach saves materials and reduces the weight of the components.

This method has been developed to a relatively mature stage and is widely adopted. However, some weight-bearing components, such as desk tops, are not suitable for this structure.

Furniture structure

Furniture must have a stable structure, often referred to as "sturdy." Some furniture can still meet this requirement by omitting certain components. A review of many commonly used products reveals numerous components that could be omitted. These savings are often significant and often overlooked. Furthermore, we should break away from conventional design boundaries and design more novel, innovative, and simple products. This will achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Production arrangements

With the production of furniture, there will be a lot of leftover raw materials that cannot be fully utilized. At this time, we should design some products that are suitable for the size of these raw materials and make some small furniture. Often, because these furniture are very casual and creative, they are very popular with everyone.

Outdated raw materials

Don't let old materials with outdated colors and patterns sit unused for too long. Instead, repurpose them for areas of furniture that aren't exposed to the sun, such as baseboards and cabinet dividers. There's no need to force the colors and patterns to match the exterior fabric. This approach, which doesn't affect appearance or usability, has proven popular.

Environmental protection is the greatest saving

When it comes to home decoration, save where you can, and pay attention where you need to!

Did you know that environmentally friendly home renovations are the greatest asset for every one of us?

Healthy life, green living, is the philosophy we always uphold. The Red A brand under the group is committed to using only environmentally friendly base materials and surface materials. Each base material and surface material is carefully selected, and the quality and environmental protection are absolutely guaranteed.

The Solid Wood Multilayer (OSB+) series is a secondary processed product of imported OSB. Formaldehyde-free PMDI is used to glue the OSB boards together, resulting in zero formaldehyde emissions and a healthy, environmentally friendly product. In addition to numerous wood products that meet national environmental standards, we also offer formaldehyde-free technical veneer, which exhibits no light transmission or cracking when placed under strong light.

Because of professionalism, we are excellent; because of excellence, we are outstanding!

Red A board has always taken health and environmental protection as its starting point, and has successfully established the banner of formaldehyde-free and healthy for the Chinese decoration industry. It has also made more people aware of the importance of the quality of the decoration environment, thereby providing everyone with the best quality products and creating a healthy and beautiful green world!
