Kitchen design warning: cabinet 5 big environmental factors must not be blind when buying

In recent years, the cabinet industry has developed rapidly. However, due to the imperfect market management, the industry order is rather chaotic. Some small workshop-style "manufacturers" and home-style "factories" have no qualifications to produce cabinets and such special products. They produce inferior cabinet products by cutting corners, shoddy materials, etc., resulting in a large number of poisonous and harmful materials being removed, seriously. Damaged consumer rights. In fact, the reporter also found out that many cabinets that claim to be “environmentally friendly” do not actually meet environmental standards.

Recently, Yao Liangsong, executive chairman of the cabinet committee of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, interviewed the Times reporter. When talking about the consumer environment of cabinets, he pointed out five major problems that consumers may encounter when buying cabinets. For these issues, Yao Liangsong said that the environmental protection of cabinets is an all-round concept, far from being able to include “formaldehyde not exceeding standards,” and there are many other factors that are not environmentally friendly.

Question 1 Chemical Pollution Becomes Invisible Killer

In addition to formaldehyde, hazardous substances such as benzene and hydrazine may also be present in cabinets. In addition to the panels, there are cabinet panels and adhesives that need to be processed in order to ensure that the content of various harmful substances does not exceed the standard.

Ms. Li, who lives in Haizhu District, told reporters that she recently detected a new house renovation in her home. The result was very surprising. During the renovation period, all dealers told Miss Li that they chose to use purely environmentally friendly materials when purchasing household items. However, Miss Li asked experts to test the results but found that the new house decoration residual harmful gas, many indicators are still exceeded. Especially in the kitchen, formaldehyde exceeded 3 times and benzene exceeded 4 times. The testing agency told Miss Li that the reason for the chemical contamination of the kitchen was that the cabinets were installed too much and too dense. In addition, the quality of the cabinets she chose was not related to the quality of the cabinets, which was another reason for the serious decoration pollution.

Expert Tips:

There are some inexpensive cabinets on the market that are very attractive to consumers. Most of these low-cost cabinets are made of poor quality sheets, and it is prone to excessive formaldehyde.

The quality of cabinets largely depends on the quality of the materials. The reason why cabinets produced by small factories are so inexpensive is that, besides the simple processing equipment (some of the smaller plants can't even talk about equipment), the main thing is the cost of the panels. For example, the price of a high quality sheet is several times the price of a poor quality sheet, and some are as high as tens of times. Many workshop-type small factories use inferior plates in order to reduce costs and gain benefits. This not only infringes on consumer rights, but also seriously affects the healthy development of the entire cabinet industry.

Problem 2 Physical Damage Prevention

Materials, poorly-operated cabinets may have burrs, sharp corners, fast mouths, etc. in the details. These unreasonable parts can easily cause physical harm to people, especially children. Handling food directly on the cupboard may be due to the quality of the countertops, resulting in accidental eating of impurities, debris, etc., as well as harm to health. To avoid these problems, we must use high-quality hardware, reasonable choice of panels and countertops.

Ms. Hu, who lives in Baiyun District, recently called the home hotline. She recently spent more than 20,000 yuan and purchased an environmentally friendly brand of cabinets. However, during use, she found that the drawers of the external cabinets can be opened not only from the front, but also from drawers. There are still narrow strips on the left and right sides to connect with the sides of the cabinet. Therefore, pushing out from the side can also open the drawer, which can easily pinch the child's small hands. In addition, the corners of the low cabinets are pointed and hard, and the family can easily bruise when passing by.

Expert Tips:

The hardware on the cabinets can be said to be the most important part of the kitchen. It directly affects the overall quality of the cabinets. Based on years of experience in the development of foreign kitchens, the quality of hardware has become an important indicator of the difference between good and bad cabinets, but domestic Cabinet makers still lack attention.

Cabinet doors have to be switched thousands of times thousands of times, domestic hinges are difficult to meet this requirement, so consumers must be willing to spend money on this point when custom cabinets. At present, the vast majority of home-made cabinets use domestically-made hardware, mainly to reduce costs and compete for customers at low prices. Some well-known brands of cabinets will clearly mark the brands of hardware used, or mark the prices of different grades, so that consumers have room for choice.
