Only a small amount of children's furniture is made of pine wood and other laminated materials, which often leads to excessive levels of harmful gases in children's rooms. At present, most of the children's furniture on the market only indicates the content of formaldehyde, but there is almost no detection number for benzene and heavy metals. Some test reports only contain the hazardous content of the board, not the harmful substances such as paint.

The "invisible killer" hidden in children's furniture, the daily needs of parents

Eliminate formaldehyde pollution

Children spend 80% of their time indoors. When children grow up, their breathing is 50% higher than adults. Therefore, children are more vulnerable to indoor air pollution than adults, and furniture smells that are not easily noticeable by adults may have unwittingly affected the breathing quality of children. “Safety First” is the primary requirement for the quality of children's furniture. Some wood-based panel furniture, laminate flooring, upholstery fabrics, and children's toys all have formaldehyde contamination problems. On the one hand, in the decoration of children's rooms, materials that meet or even exceed national standards are selected. On the other hand, indoor environment detection and purification of children's rooms are strengthened, and ventilation of children's rooms is also strengthened. When choosing a color fabric to decorate a child's room, remember to soak the newly purchased fabric with water for a while, rinse it repeatedly, and use it after drying. At the same time, you can choose an air purifier for indoor environmental formaldehyde purification.

Prevent heavy metal pollution

Lead in the air mainly enters the human body through the respiratory tract and the absorbing channel in the form of dust and smoke. Lead pollution not only directly harms the child, but also endangers the fetus, even through the mother into the fetus. Beijing once found that a baby born only one day is severe. Cases of lead poisoning symptoms. Lead pollution in indoor environments comes from home decorating materials, household items and toys. Many decorative materials, such as wood coatings and interior wall coatings, contain lead. Some families like to decorate rooms, especially children's rooms, and are more likely to cause lead pollution in the air of the room.
