Specific provisions of the new national standard
The new national standard stipulates that children's furniture products should not have dangerous sharp edges and dangerous sharp tips, and the corners and edges should be rounded or chamfered. The product should not have dangerous protrusions, and if dangerous protrusions are present, they should be protected in a suitable manner. According to experience, children are injured at home, often due to sharp edges, sharp tips or protrusions. If children's furniture is rounded or chamfered and protected on inevitable protrusions, the danger can be largely avoided.
The new national standard has increased the content of four heavy metals such as antimony, arsenic, antimony and selenium in heavy metal detection. In addition, azo (decomposable aromatic amine) in textiles and leather fabrics is listed as banned, and o-benzene in plastic products. Dicarboxylic acid esters have also been subjected to corresponding content limits.
The new national standard also puts forward "flame retardant requirements" for children's furniture. Not only household furniture requires flame retardancy, but furniture used in public places must also have flame retardancy. For example, in kindergartens, all furniture requires flame retardant, in case of a fire, resulting in a group of children.
On the warning signs of children's furniture, it is required to indicate the age range for the product in the instructions for use, and to warn children's furniture specific items to avoid unnecessary harm to children.
Kaifeng children's furniture market reaction
The implementation of the new national standard has had a profound impact on children's furniture companies. On the one hand, the new national standard has strictly formulated the production and production standards for children's furniture. For enterprises that do not meet the standards, the relevant departments will order them to close the door or carry out rectification; on the other hand, all localities will increase the intensity of censorship and crackdown, so that some enterprises can produce problems. Furniture is difficult to circulate in the market.
After the official implementation of the new national standard, the author interviewed and investigated several representative furniture stores in Kaifeng, Henan Province, and found that some of the children's furniture for sale did not meet the requirements of the new national standard.
In a large national chain store, the author saw a children's desk, both sharp at the edge and the tip, and another storage rack, similar situation. According to the new national standard, these furniture are obviously not in compliance with the standards. The author immediately asked the sales staff whether they knew that the General Technical Conditions for Children's Furniture was implemented on August 1. The salesperson replied: "I don't know."
The author also interviewed the store manager. The manager said frankly: The store’s attention to the new national standard is still relatively high, so after August 1st, the products of the merchants must comply with the new national standard, but they have not been enforced. The store has just received a notice from the government quality inspection department, and will arrange some tests and spot checks in the near future. In this way, the behavior of the merchants will be supervised and the children's furniture market will be regulated.
The author also investigated several local furniture stores in Henan and found that most children's furniture did not meet the requirements of the new national standard. However, when interviewing the person in charge of the store, they all said that they already knew that the implementation of the new national standard would prompt the business to be rectified as soon as possible, but it required a process.
The impact of the new national standard on children's furniture prices
Will the implementation of the new national standard cause a large increase in the price of children's furniture on the market? This is a matter of great concern to the majority of businesses and consumers. With this question, the author interviewed a merchant who represented a famous children's furniture brand in China. He said: "The implementation of the new national standard for children's furniture is not enough to cause the price increase of children's furniture, because it is required before the control of harmful substances and the selection of plates and paints, so these aspects will not increase production costs, the only increase The cost is to add several processing steps, such as punching, edge arcing, etc. However, these processes do not increase the material. Therefore, after the implementation of the new national standard, it will not cause the price increase of children's furniture. That is also a market behavior of the business, and has nothing to do with the new national standard."
From the author's interview investigation in Kaifeng, it can be seen that the enforcement of the new national standard for children's furniture is an inevitable trend. Enterprises must change their thinking and adjust the production process as soon as possible so that the new children's furniture meets the requirements of the new national standard. Merchants should also deal with existing children's furniture that does not meet the requirements of the new national standard as soon as possible, clearing the obstacles for regulating the children's furniture market.
