Panel furniture with novel style, bright colors, clear wood grain and no deformation, no cracking, mothproof, moderate price and other advantages become a new family of furniture category.



The correct purchase of panel furniture should pay attention to the following 5 points:
1、Surface quality.

Board furniture with particleboard, medium density fiberboard and other wood-based board as the base material, the surface decoration with melamine, PVC, wood thin wood and paper wood grain cladding, imitation wood grain pattern is clear and natural, smooth and smooth, has a good visual effect and feel.

2、Production quality.

Panel furniture in the production is the molding of the plate through cutting saw, decorative edge sealing, component assembly combination, its production quality mainly depends on the quality of cutting saw, edge, surface decoration quality and plate port quality. The production of plate furniture plate in the cutting saw of the plate parts of the flatness, verticality, the Angle have quality requirements, generally speaking, the cutting technology of the plate in 0.01 mm per meter, to meet the precise requirements of the plate cutting saw behind the profile flat, good Angle, made of furniture will not appear plate tilt phenomenon. The precision of the saw blade in the cutting saw will also affect the quality of the end face and end edge of the plate, and the cutting saw defects such as scratches, falling edges, and collapsing corners will also affect the appearance quality of the layout furniture. The edge and surface decoration mainly depends on whether the glue is evenly applied on the decorative parts, whether the bonding is firm, whether the trimming is smooth and smooth, whether the end face of the visible parts such as the side plate of the parts, the door panel, the drawer panel, etc., is sealed, and there is no trace of bonding on the edge of the well-decorated plate.


The assembly combination mainly depends on whether the groove and groove at the drilling place are exquisite and neat, whether the connector is firm after installation, whether there is a gap between the T-joint after the plane and the end connection, and whether there is a loosening phenomenon when pushed by hand. Whether the gap of the door and drawer is too large, it is generally required to be between 1mm and 2mm, and whether the opening of the door and drawer is flexible and free.

3、The quality of metal parts and plastic parts.

Panel furniture are made of metal parts and plastic parts as fastening connectors, so the quality of metal parts also determines the internal quality of panel furniture. Metal parts require dexterity, smooth, surface electroplating treatment, no rust, burrs, etc., the accuracy of the matching parts is higher. Plastic parts should be beautiful in shape, bright in color, and the strength and elasticity in use should not be too thin. The open-type connector requires flexible rotation, and the internal spring should be properly relaxed.

At present, the panel furniture on the market is mainly based on complete sets of bedroom furniture and office furniture. In addition, there are multi-functional film and television electrical cabinets and other products. The main size of its furniture (that is, functional size) national standards have requirements. For example, the space depth of the wardrobe should be greater than or equal to 530mm, the distance between the upper edge of the hanging clothes rod and the upper surface of the bottom plate is greater than or equal to 1400mm, the specified height of table furniture is 680 ~ 760mm, and the middle clearance height of the middle drawer of the writing table to the ground height should be greater than or equal to 520mm. The above main sizes should be paid attention to when purchasing, because if the furniture is smaller than the specified size, it will bring a lot of inconvenience when used. If the space depth of the wardrobe is too small, it will cause the door to close.

5、Formaldehyde emission.

Board furniture is generally particleboard and medium density fiberboard as the base material. The formaldehyde emission standard in the plate has been specified. Among them, the formaldehyde release amount of particleboard is less than or equal to 50 mg per 100 grams, and the formaldehyde release amount of MDF is less than or equal to 40 mg per 100 grams. Formaldehyde, also known as formalin, is a harmful toxic substance that has a certain impact on human health. When consumers buy, open the door and drawer, if they smell a stimulating odor, causing eyes to tear or cause cough and other conditions, it means that the formaldehyde release in the furniture exceeds the standard provisions, should not buy this kind of furniture. Otherwise, once used, especially in the case of the use of air conditioning, the air environment of the living room will contain formaldehyde, affecting health.
