Guangdong is the most important production, circulation and export base of China's furniture industry. For a long time, the Guangdong furniture industry has formed an unparalleled Industrial advantage and has been firmly occupying the leading position in the domestic furniture industry. It is known as "Chinese furniture looks at Guangdong" and "world furniture is made in Guangdong". However, Novartis Furniture and Yongxin Furniture, which have been found to have excessive heavy metal content and excessive formaldehyde emissions, are also regarded as small enterprises in the industry.

 

The staff of China Quality Miles respectively called Novartis Furniture and Yongxin Furniture, hoping to know whether "unqualified products are still on sale and whether the company has taken retrospective measures such as recall?" "What causes the content of heavy metals and unqualified carpentry requirements, formaldehyde release The quantity does not meet the requirements of the standard? "

 

Wang Yayun, general manager of Novartis Furniture, responded, "At present, unqualified products have been discontinued and recalled according to the process." He said, "The heavy metal content of the bedside table and the carpentry requirements are unqualified. The problem lies in the paint and board, because of the supply There was a problem with the technical content of the supplier ’s materials.

 

The supplier may have mixed materials in the paint processing process, resulting in the overall heavy metal content exceeding the standard. "At the same time," the consumer is responsible for buying substandard products. In the future, the situation of suppliers will be strictly reviewed, and the supply of products will be shortened from once in March to once in January. "

 

Hu Yuexiang, manager of the quality management department of Yongxin Furniture, responded that "the production of unqualified batches has ceased and the products have not been sold out."

 

Regarding "what causes the formaldehyde emission of this batch of products to exceed the standard", it was said that "the problem of the dining chairs in this batch is on the seat plate, which is a composite board, because the company has a loophole in the management of suppliers. This batch of products It is processed by the outgoing factory. In the quality process of the batch of products, the quality control personnel go to the production site of the other party to check, and they can only check the appearance, structure, and physical properties of the load-bearing. Only national appraisal agencies can complete. "

 

Worries about the quality of the world factory

 

It is understood that the Guangdong Quality Supervision Inspection and Inspection involves 747 batches of wooden furniture produced by 502 companies in 11 cities (districts) including Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Foshan, Huizhou, Shanwei, Dongguan, Zhongshan, Jiangmen, Zhaoqing and Shunde For products, 87 batches were found to be unqualified, and the rate of unqualified product discovery was 11.6%.

 

Among the unqualified projects, board furniture involves formaldehyde emission, heavy metal content, mechanical properties, paint film physical and chemical properties, soft and hard cladding physical and chemical properties, woodworking requirements, and appearance of artificial board parts. Children's furniture involves structural safety (edge ​​and cutting edge ), Hazardous substance limits (formaldehyde emission, content of migratable elements in surface coating), warning signs, appearance requirements (appearance of wooden parts), etc.

 

As soon as the announcement came out, the furniture industry was shocked. Guangdong furniture, which once led the development of the Chinese furniture industry, has now become a severely affected area for inferior furniture. This makes people can't help but ask, what's wrong with Guangdong furniture?

 

Guangdong has the reputation of "the world's factory", and it is also leading the development trend of the Chinese furniture industry. In regular spot checks, there are many quality problems with so many brand furniture, which has formed an industry phenomenon. In particular, the limits of harmful substances, formaldehyde emission, heavy metal content and other indicators do not meet the standards, which directly affects the health and safety of thousands of consumers.

 

According to industry insiders, the main problem of unqualified products is still the basic materials such as wood-based panels. Once the basic materials are unqualified, the products produced must be unqualified. Why do some artificial board companies always produce unqualified products, and why are manufacturers always willing to use these products?

 

Insiders said that this has a certain relationship with price competition. Some companies choose low-quality wood-based panels in order to seek low prices. The lower the price, the lower the quality of the product. In addition, the insider also revealed that the non-conformity rate of 11.6% is not surprising at all, and there are more unqualified products that have not been spot-checked, and these products are still on the market as usual.

 

       Whether the quality of Guangdong furniture is still worthy of the reputation of "world factory" can not help but bring more questions and thinking.

 

Consumers buy furniture carefully select miscellaneous brands

 

In the fish and dragon mixed furniture market, experts suggest that consumers should carefully choose miscellaneous brand products when buying furniture.

 

Generally, the miscellaneous furniture manufacturers put economic interests first, and they are not so strict in terms of materials and workmanship. Even if there are quality problems, they are difficult to pay attention to. In the event of economic losses, well-known brands will pay more attention to material selection and workmanship in order to maintain their credibility. "

 

Yu Xiusu, vice chairman and secretary general of the Beijing Furniture Industry Association, suggested that consumers buy branded furniture at well-known stores. All are stricter, from quality to environmental protection and performance are relatively better. "
