Collection of application schemes for detecting harmful substances in furniture

Furniture, as an indispensable component of people's daily life and workspace, directly affects the health and well-being of consumers in terms of its safety. For a long time, the potential release of harmful chemicals in furniture products, such as formaldehyde, benzene derivatives, heavy metals, plasticizers, flame retardants, etc., has been an important factor in causing indoor air pollution and leading to health risks (such as carcinogenesis, teratogenicity, reproductive toxicity, allergic reactions, etc.). With the significant increase in consumer awareness of environmental protection and health, as well as the continuous strengthening of global supervision of consumer product safety, scientific, accurate, and comprehensive detection and control of harmful substances in furniture have become an urgent need to ensure public health, promote green manufacturing, and facilitate industrial upgrading. The release and implementation of the mandatory national standard GB18584-2024 "Limits of Hazardous Substances in Furniture" (officially effective from July 1, 2025) marks a new historical stage in China's furniture product safety supervision. This standard integrates and fully replaces the original GB 18584-2001 "Limits of Hazardous Substances in Interior Decoration Materials and Wooden Furniture" and GB28481-2012 "Limits of Hazardous Substances in Plastic Furniture". Its reform efforts, strict requirements, and wide coverage have set an unprecedented safety benchmark for the furniture industry.
