Since 1995, the development of water-based wood lacquer in my country has a history of 20 years. In the past 20 years, due to various factors, the development process of waterborne wood lacquer in my country is still slow. How to accelerate the process of changing "oil" to "water" is an important issue for paint and furniture companies.
On August 27, 2015, in order to actively promote the application of waterborne coatings in the furniture industry, it was jointly sponsored by the Waterborne Coatings Branch (Waterborne Platform) of the Coating and Coating Professional Committee of the Chinese Chemical Society, the Guangdong Coatings Industry Association, and the Guangdong Furniture Industry Association "Environmental Protection·Water-based-Application Promotion Conference of Furniture Industry Coating" was held in Shunde. Creston water paint representatives were invited to attend this meeting.
At the meeting, people in the industry exchanged ideas about the local environmental protection policy of Guangdong Province, the development of the furniture and coatings market in Guangdong Province, and the technical application of water-based paints and coatings in the form of linkage between the upstream and downstream of the furniture industry. All parties are actively working to promote the application of water-based paint in furniture and woodware.
At the meeting, according to Wang Ke, president of the Guangdong Furniture Industry Association, due to factors such as high product prices, complex technical transformation, large investment in painting equipment, and product performance that are difficult to meet the needs of enterprises, furniture and wood companies "The aspect is still subject to major restrictions, and the process is very slow.
As we all know, the development and promotion of waterborne wood lacquer is very slow. Although the environmental protection advantages of waterborne wood lacquer have already penetrated into the market, due to the low popularity of the industry, the lack of core coatings and raw material technology, coupled with the lack of national industrial policies to promote Water-based wood lacquer is still "applauded".
The data shows that the current annual output of my country's coatings has reached 16.48 million tons, and the utilization rate of environmentally friendly coatings is less than 50%, far lower than that of developed countries in Europe and America. According to statistics, during the use of domestic paints, 7 million tons of VOC (organic volatiles) are released into the atmosphere every year. In addition, more than 50% of the market is solvent-based paints, volatile formaldehyde, benzene and other toxic substances, which have a greater impact on the environment and human body.
But "in recent years, the good news of water-based wood lacquer has been constant. The most notable progress is that the state's forced mechanism on environmental protection policy has been formed, and the water-based wood lacquer technology has made more obvious progress." An industry Analysts said.
