2025-10-20

With the trend of customized home furnishings, custom-made panel furniture made of eco-friendly boards is becoming increasingly popular. Even today, they remain a favorite in the panel industry. Initially used for computer desks and office furniture, they were mostly single-color boards. However, with the increasing variety and vibrant colors of eco-friendly boards, they have become the preferred decoration material for consumers and furniture manufacturers.

Using eco-friendly panels to customize wardrobes saves time, as there's no need for painting, a time-consuming process, and the odor needs time to dissipate after renovation. Secondly, there's the cost benefit: no need to paint means no need to purchase related materials, and labor costs are also saved. Most notably, the price difference between eco-friendly panels and pure solid wood is significant. Overall, the cost-performance advantage is significant.

Reasons for price differences of eco-boards

1. Brand value of ecological boards: In customized home decoration, ecological boards are used in many places. In order to ensure that you can buy ecological boards that are worth the money, it is very important to choose a first-line ecological board brand.

2. Appearance and pattern of ecological board: There are many types of ecological board patterns, and the colors are gorgeous. Different ecological board patterns can be matched with different decoration styles, and the prices of mainstream pattern products will also vary.

3. Core material of ecological board: The main core materials of ecological board at present are Malacca, American redwood, fir, pine, etc. Fuqing ecological board uses imported Malacca, New Zealand pine and domestic medium and large diameter fir as core materials, and high-quality eucalyptus as the middle board to ensure that the board surface is flat and generous, and the structure of the board is clearly layered.

4. Environmental performance of eco-friendly boards: There are price differences between E0 and E1-grade eco-friendly boards. E0-grade eco-friendly boards have a formaldehyde emission level of less than 0.5mg/L, which is a more stringent environmental requirement. While E0-grade eco-friendly boards produced by some small factories may be cheaper, it's unclear whether they meet E0 environmental standards.

What should we pay attention to when purchasing ecological boards?

1. Check the texture of the board, whether the color is delicate and uniform, and whether the wood grain is clear and beautiful.

2. Check the flatness. In a dimly lit place, look at the long surface of the eco-board at a 45-degree angle to see if it is uneven.

3. Check whether there are dry or wet spots or blocks on the surface of the eco-board.

4. The degree of deformation of the ecological board also reflects the manufacturer's process capabilities, and cracking is definitely a quality problem.

5. In order to protect themselves, trees will emit a protective smell. Ecological boards are made of a variety of woods and will naturally have a smell, so the smell after sawing does not mean that it is not environmentally friendly.
