Healthy Furniture Selection Guide

“Not enough health, what should I do?”

The prospects for newcomers Gu Lei and Yu Guang have been unanimously unified. "We must find healthy furniture!" I have heard good health, but what about the health of the furniture? "It is the furniture that helps the body stay healthy!" Gu Lei said.

In fact, buying a set of furniture that is good for the body has always been the dream of these two people. "The purpose of buying furniture is to make the home look warm, full and tidy, and to ensure the health and safety of users is also a very important part." Yu Guang said.

As a typical white-collar worker who has to stay in front of the computer for at least 8 hours a day, Gu Lei and Yu Guang always feel back pain after work, and they are weak. "At this time, I thought I could go home and take a hot bath and relax. But what kind of shower should I buy?" In Gu Lei’s view, the water pressure from the large shower is even more Large, can have a massage effect, and Yu Guang, who is allergic, prefers to buy a shower with a filtering function.

In addition to the shower, two people are also very concerned about the issue of formaldehyde. "I have heard that many furniture now have excessive formaldehyde, which has a great impact on the human body!" Gu Lei said. "And it is said that formaldehyde can also cause irritation to the respiratory mucosa. Yu Guang is an allergic constitution, and certainly can't afford it."

However, compared with formaldehyde, Yu Guang is more worried. On the contrary, it is other situations. "Many reports now say that household tiles have radiation, and even have radiation furniture! This is a big problem, and it cannot be because of light. I bought furniture and moved it back together with the radiation source. Besides, how much radiation will affect the human body, we don’t know anyone. If this happens, then we are not worth the loss?"

Yu Guang’s concern made Gu Lei, who had some complaints about her emotions, also talked about her own thoughts. “We always think that natural materials are good, but some friends say that natural materials are more likely to have safety risks. Formaldehyde and radiation are some of us already Knowing the problem, how to judge whether the furniture has such a situation is a considerable problem, let alone those problems that we don't know. So now I feel very confused, what is the health benefits but not harmful Products? How do we distinguish these laymen?"

Point01 / Solid wood furniture with formaldehyde content approaching zero

The young families who have just set up are often tight in budget when they are renovating their new homes. At this time, the elders with rich experience will give a reminder. In any case, don’t be greedy when buying furniture, especially large furniture, or pick solid wood. A little bit more assured. Such advice stems from our long-term reliance on tables, chairs, cabinets, and bed rests in our home life. Whether these furniture are safe and secure, in a sense, also determines the healthy quality of our home life.

There are some extreme environmentalists who demand solid wood furniture because the formaldehyde content is zero, which is actually unrealistic, but this does not prevent us from pursuing products with a content close to zero. The safety of furniture is mainly focused on the coating of the board, so the more reliable manufacturers will adopt the Jiabaoli environmentally friendly water-based paint, with clear water as the sole diluent, no pollution, no irritating smell, and the paint film is full. Crystal clear, water resistant, wear resistant, yellowing resistant, non-flammable, and has the absolute advantage of ultra-low formaldehyde, ultra-low benzene, xylene, ethylbenzene and ultra-low heavy metals, free TDI. In addition, it should also pay attention to the glue used for the fingerboard of solid wood furniture. It is best to use the white glue to bond, that is, the aqueous solution of polyvinyl acetate is non-toxic and tasteless, and it is more reassuring.

Point02 / bathroom water saving and clean lighting, power saving and eye protection

When it comes to home environmental protection, the concept of the older generation still stays on the level of saving water and electricity. The small one saves money for the family, while the big one saves money for the country. Nowadays, the younger generation is paying more attention to the balance between personal quality of life and natural ecological environment. It not only includes energy conservation, but also needs to make life with family members without guaranteeing pollution and additional burdens for nature. Health and comfort. This kind of requirement is the most outstanding when you choose the bathroom products. Whether it is a bathtub, a faucet, a toilet or a shower, the requirements for water saving are unchanging, and if you can have massage, leisure, intelligence and other pleasant things. The function is no better. In the shower room, a set of tropical rainforest stereo massage showers, or a bathtub with a surf effect, or a toilet with a smart washing and drying system will make the bathroom space a relaxing place to relax, but Don't forget, the primary function of a bathroom product is to clean it. If it does not meet hygiene and filtration standards, it is superfluous.

In terms of energy saving, people have the same requirements for lamps. Whether the lamps in the house are energy-saving may not seem obvious on the electricity bill, but it is extremely important for the environment. Nowadays, LED lamps have been popularized due to technical maturity and cost reduction, and everyone is beginning to realize its benefits. LED lights are high-tech lamps that convert AC power into DC power and continuously supply cold light sources. Unlike incandescent lamps, there are flashing RFs that make people feel stinging eyes, and they don't generate extra heat energy, so the energy-saving effect is surprising. If you can use LED lamps with large color temperature and energy saving and environmental protection in your home, it is not only eye-protecting, but also very eye-catching.

Point03 / Safe and environmentally friendly wall

If the safety of furniture has always been given full attention, then the environmental protection of wall decoration materials has only become important in recent years, because various paints, wallpapers and ceramic tiles on the market have appeared. The safety ills of the tongue have already jeopardized the health of many people. The area of ​​the wall occupies the vast majority of the entire home space, and the construction period is very long. If you want to rework, it is very difficult, so the quality of the wall decoration materials can not be ignored. Like paint used on furniture, wall-coated latex paints must not carry harmful radioactive materials and irritating odors. Wallpapers and tiles that require adhesive on the wall should also be required to meet such standards, and it is not possible to see whether the visual pattern is trendy or comfortable. If you don't know the chemical composition of the decorative materials, then you can refer to the relevant international environmental standards, choose a trustworthy certification body and a reputable brand. This is a lazy way.
