Water-based paint can become a new direction for furniture paint

At present, the coatings used by furniture companies are almost all oil paints, which makes furniture products suffer from environmental problems such as formaldehyde. However, the cost of furniture production lines using water-based paint as coatings is higher than that of oil-based paints, and the production efficiency is lower than that of oil-based paint production lines, which also makes many furniture companies look deterred by “water”.

Consumers have become frightened in the environment where the bottom line of consumer safety has been repeatedly broken. When they are familiar with the poisoning of oil paints, the symmetry of information must allow them to abandon oil paint furniture.

Furniture painting oil paint or water-based paint, for many furniture companies, is already a question of choice. Although due to a variety of factors, at present, furniture companies still paint oil-based paints, while water-based paints are excluded from market factors. However, consumer demand for home-based environmental protection will eventually lead to the full-scale arrival of water-based paints. In order to maintain its leading position in the domestic furniture market, Dongguan should take the lead in promoting water-based paint.

If measured by the environmental protection factors at home, the oil-based paint is inferior to the water-based paint, so it should enter the potential micro and even eliminate the ranks. However, the domestic furniture industry is still using a lot of oil paint. Why is water-based paint not over oily paint, and why is the need for consumer safety and environmental protection difficult to trigger the widespread use of water-based paint? In addition to the cost factor, a more critical factor is that, in the marketing segment, the pros and cons of water-borne lacquer furniture and oil-based lacquer furniture are difficult to identify and control for consumers. Originally, the two produced different volatilities due to different solvents. The oily paint had a greater taste of formaldehyde, while the water-based paint was basically tasteless. If so, consumers can make the difference, or they may choose to buy water-based paint furniture. However, industry insiders pointed out that many paint manufacturers use masking agents. The taste of formaldehyde in oil paints has been masked by many. For consumers, waterborne paint furniture and oil paint furniture are inseparable and therefore cost is high. Higher-priced water-borne paint furniture competed with oil-based paint furniture. This is the reason why water-based paint furniture has been crowded out and not subject to entrepreneurs.

The poisoning of oil paint furniture, from the two ports ** citizen's right to health, the first is the production process to the health of industrial workers poison; the second is the use of links to the health of consumers**. In view of this, European and American countries have already banned oil painting of furniture. As far as the domestic industry is concerned, prohibiting the use of oil paint for furniture is a general trend. Dongguan furniture manufacturers should lay out their strains early, and taking the lead in trying water-based paints earlier is more likely to be a reasonable choice.

The furniture industry industry organization can lobby the state to formulate industry technical standards for controlling the formaldehyde content of furniture, and promote water-based paint as soon as possible through the collective action of the industry. On a nationwide scale, Dongguan furniture enterprises have the overall competitiveness of the industry. If the industry technical standards are improved, and water-based paint is commonly used, Dongguan furniture industry may rely on its overall strength to seize more market share and improve the competition in Dongguan's furniture industry. force. On the other hand, industry organizations can promote water paint through industry self-regulation and industry supervision.

Waterborne paints or oil paints. The furniture industry is at a crossroads. Will some companies walk in the wrong direction because of mistakes in selection? Asking this question is not an alarmist. Understand that consumers have become frightened in the environment where the bottom line of consumer safety has been repeatedly broken. When they are familiar with the poisoning of oil paint, the symmetry of information must allow them to abandon the oil paint furniture. If some furniture companies disregard consumer environmental protection and safety choices and lag behind in the use of water-based paint, then they will suffer sooner or later.
