See how environmental whirlwinds disrupt the paint industry

China Coatings Network:
people's environmental awareness is getting stronger and stronger, the environmental performance requirements for
coatings
products are getting higher and higher. It is understood that in order to interpret the concept of environmental protection, manufacturers competition to drink paint, with
painting
stir-fry things are amazing, zero VOC, nano-paint, diatom mud, seaweed mud coating and other new concepts emerge endlessly. However, according to industry insiders, the concept of green paint hype, has made a lot of
paint enterprises
riding the tiger difficult, into the environmental protection "kidnapping" embarrassing situation.
is the wind of environmental protection prevailing in the paint industry? This dates back to about 2010. At that time, libang "net taste 120" 5 in 1 interior wall
latex paint
and Dolezal's bamboo charcoal fresh house full-effect wall paint as the first, the paint market began to blow a net taste cyclone. These two foreign-funded enterprises through the spread of advertising, so that the concept of net taste has become the first focus of consumers when buying paint.
, due to technical difficulties and other factors, there are few real zero VOC environmental coatings on the market. Take latex paint as an example, film additives and antifreeze and other additives are the main source of VOC in coatings, some coatings by reducing their dosage, to reduce VOC purposes, but performance will be reduced. And if the pursuit of low environmental indicators, paint production, it is likely to drop powder, foaming, cracking, low scrub resistance.
In coating production, environmental protection, performance and price is a comprehensive process of consideration, and because of the different formulations, processes, raw materials produced by various enterprises, from the cost point of consideration, can achieve perfection is not realistic. This requires a balance between environmental protection, performance and price. Consumers in the purchase of paint, may not have to keep an eye on environmental protection and VOC content, as long as it is in line with national standards of qualified products can be assured to buy. "If the quality of the coating is not taken into account, simply reduce the content of VOC process is very simple, add more water can be. Therefore, some small
paint manufacturers
can do VOC very low, but the quality can not be guaranteed.
consumers to buy paint, you can ask to see the product inspection report. According to the introduction, the test report is the identification of each qualified paint product. The report is stamped with a testing institution, and the qualified testing institution is the National Building Materials Testing Center, the local quality and technical supervision department, and the testing institution that has been granted legal qualification. In general, a sample test is more credible than a commissioned test. In addition, test reports are usually valid for two years, so consumers should see the time clearly and beware of being blinded by expired test reports.
