Facing the choice of cabinets material, do you have such questions? How to judge the quality of the different material?

For wooden cabinets, the most important part is the panel. The panels from different suppliers have a high degree of similarity in appearance, but the service life of the finished cabinets varies greatly, which is due to the quality of the panel.

Static Bending Strength

The static bending strength is an attribute to measure whether the cabinet will deform or break. The higher the static bending strength, the stronger the ability to resist bending damage. In addition to the original tree age, a reasonable product process can make the panel structure stable and not easy to warp and deform.

The service life of furniture made of plates with high static bending strength will be longer, so this will be a very important part when choosing plates.

Formaldehyde Emission

Glue is the source of formaldehyde. When the amount of formaldehyde released reaches a certain concentration, it will cause obvious damage to human eyes, nose, and respiratory system or make people sick. Whether the panel manufacturer uses environmentally friendly glue and whether the environmental protection of the panel can meet the standard are the most important factors that determine the quality of the panel.

Thickness Expansion Rate of Water Absorbing

Due to the influence of humidity during the use of the panel, the thickness and length of the panel will change and warp will occur. The thickness expansion rate is not only related to the raw material, but also the surface protection and edge banding process of the panel.

The strength of the moisture-proof ability will directly affect the life of the furniture, so when choosing the panel, pay more attention to the raw material and the manufacturing process.

Nail-holding Ability

The nail-holding ability of the panel refers to whether the nail is easy to be fixed after the nail enters the panel, and whether it is easy to loosen and fall off. Furniture made of panels with good nail-holding ability is not easy to loosen, fall off, make noises and deform. The size of the nail-holding ability depends on the type of wood, moisture content, density, hardness, grain direction and production process.

Appearance

High-quality panel should be exquisite, with beautiful textures, no glue opening, bulges, and exposed bottoms. In addition, the surface should be smooth and free of obvious flaws, and there should be no problems such as burrs, cracks, knife marks, wormholes, glue penetration, and unclean panel surfaces.


Panels play an important role in furniture and other industries, and consumers can use the above 5 points as purchase criteria.
