In recent years, there have been many cases of childhood morbidity due to decoration pollution. According to relevant statistics, there are about 800,000 children who died of respiratory infections caused by decoration pollution every year in China, of which more than 300,000 children under the age of 5 are related to indoor air pollution.
In the decoration of children's rooms, decoration materials, paints, paints and paints are the biggest hidden dangers. The formaldehyde and benzene contained in them are the invisible killer of children's health, and it is also the main cause of leukemia and cancer in children. one of the reasons.
Children paint high and low
With the gradual increase of people’s concern for their own living conditions and physical health, environmental protection and health have become the main theme of renovation of building materials in recent years. Children as the center of each family, their health issues caused more and more parents to care about how to minimize the pollution of the children's room in the decoration, has become a new issue for parents during the renovation process .
According to experts, children spend more than 80% of their lives indoors. They are in a period of physical growth and development, and the amount of breathing is 50% higher than that of adults. If the indoor air is polluted, children are far more likely to be harmed than adults. In this environment, many children's environmental protection paints for children's rooms came into being.
In European and American markets, children's paints can form continuous paint films without adding any filming aids, anti-freeze agents and other solvents, thereby greatly reducing the VOC content of these products and providing children with a healthy and environmentally friendly livable environment.
Then, is the "children's paint" on the domestic market really suitable for children? What kind of standards will be followed when these products are manufactured? With such doubts, the reporter visited several capital stores in the capital. Among many paint brands, Garbo and Fuya have special children's paint products. According to the purchaser’s introduction, these products have zero VOC content and extremely low harmful metal content; the use of such products to decorate the rooms is not only color Rich, and very environmentally friendly, can better meet the needs of children's room decoration.
A consumer told reporters that she was renovating and used children's rooms reserved for children to prepare to use children's paint to paint the walls. At present, there are too many cases of illness due to decoration. Although children's paint is generally more expensive than ordinary paint, it is still worth the price for the health of children.
What puzzles her is that no matter what kind of children's lacquer is not produced by an authoritative organization, it can prove that the product is suitable for the environmental certification of children's use, so it is difficult for her to judge whether children's paint is really more environmentally friendly.
Lack of industry standards
In the building materials store, when a reporter asked whether there were any special children's paints, almost all foreign brands recommended the products with the best environmental performance, the highest price, or new products. According to the shopping guide introduction, foreign brand paints are certified by foreign related environmental protection, and foreign certification requirements on VOC content are much higher than domestic ones. Therefore, they can fully meet the needs of children's room renovation.
According to experts, so far, the country has not issued a separate standard for the control of children's room decoration materials, which also creates obstacles to the definition of whether the product is suitable for use in children's rooms. At present, most children's paint products are still based on the "10 mandatory national standards for hazardous materials in interior decoration materials". This also shows from a side, due to the lack of national standards, children's paint market has not been widely recognized by the market and consumers, and corporate products are even more credibility.
According to a guide buyer who declined to be named, some companies have used the lack of industry standards to openly paste ordinary paint on environmental protection certifications that have not been tested by authoritative departments, and sold ordinary paints to their children. The children's paint market has caused confusion, hindering the healthy development of the market.
Faced with such a vast market space for children, why can more than 10,000 brands of nearly 8,000 paint companies in the country not jump out of the “Red Sea†where products are homogenized seriously, and look for breakthroughs in the paint market for children? In fact, the reason is very simple. At present, there is no national standard for children's paint. More publicity may be derived from the company's product strategy. Many consumers have also called for and hope that the state will introduce relevant laws and standards as soon as possible to create a "blue sky" for children.
