It's gradually started to "change its flavor"...

The severity of indoor pollution is beyond our imagination.

So how do you choose a "good home"?

It seems especially important!

Different board qualities,

It has a significant impact on home furnishings.

The prices also vary greatly.

I have been engaged in the new decorative materials business for more than 20 years.

Today, let us teach you the four main steps: "observation, auscultation, inquiry, and palpation."

You can then choose the right building materials for your renovation.

The first step is to "look". Even if you are a complete novice, the first step is to look. Good boards have a smooth and flat surface, clear edges, and clear and complete markings such as the manufacturer's name, address, grade, and specifications on the packaging.

smell

Odor is also a very intuitive indicator. Good boards have only a slight wood smell, so you can buy them with confidence. Poor boards, on the other hand, will have a pungent smell, which may be a sign that formaldehyde levels are too high.

ask

When purchasing furniture, especially when looking at the boards used, it's helpful to ask about their quality inspection certificates, paying particular attention to the test results related to formaldehyde release. Check whether they meet national or international standards, and what the compliance rate is for formaldehyde release.

cut

Run your hand over the surface of the board to check if it is smooth and textured, without any unevenness; press the board to test its density. Good boards have strict density standards and will not easily bend even when pressed.

You can also ask the sales assistant for a sample, cut a section to see its core. Good boards have very clear layers in the cross section, and the layers are firmly glued together with good joints. You can also test it with water. If it absorbs water quickly and leaves water stains after wiping, it's best not to choose it, as it may become moldy or deformed after a while.
