Redwood furniture without logo will be banned from February next year

The mandatory national standard “General Technical Conditions for Mahogany Furniture” (hereinafter referred to as “Conditions”), which was implemented on August 1, 2012, is one of the highlights. It is stipulated that the sales contract for mahogany furniture products should contain the product manual and the quality indication. Card, product certification. At present, it is less than two months since the "Conditions" was enforced in February 2013. The industry response has been polarized. Large manufacturers have responded positively. Small manufacturers have not yet taken action and are still waiting to see.

In fact, many people in the industry do not understand the terms of the Conditions and there are some misunderstandings. To this end, Xu Feng, one of the main drafters of the "Conditions" and a professor at the College of Forestry, Guangxi University, interpreted the "Conditions". Some industry insiders said that the implementation of standards still needs the joint efforts of relevant departments, industry associations, businesses, and even consumers. This is an unusual meaning in Guangxi, which is known as the distribution center of the Redwoods.

Market articles

Manufacturers need to show "self-identification" results

The "conditions" are issued to standardize the source

This year, the Autonomous Region Technical Supervision Bureau organized relevant quality inspection departments to conduct supervision and random inspection of 200 sets of mahogany furniture and handicrafts of nearly 100 manufacturers in Dongxing, Pingxiang and Nanning. The total qualified rate is 70%. The main problem is the name of the tree species. Not standardized, adulterated materials, shoddy, etc.

According to industry insiders, in such a market environment, the "General Technical Conditions for Redwood Furniture" implemented on August 1 this year is beneficial to the source. The reporter saw that the main content of the "Conditions" accounted for 8 pages of A4 paper, the most important of which is to specify how to name and classify mahogany products, how to make product manuals, quality express cards, product certificates (one book, one card) One card). Six months after the date of implementation of the standard, all sales of mahogany furniture must meet the new standards, otherwise sales are prohibited.

What is the significance of the introduction of the "Conditions"? Yu Jiujiang, general manager of Fulin Redwood Furniture, made an image metaphor: “In normal times, when we buy a piece of clothing and an electric appliance, we will have maintenance instructions, ingredient descriptions, certificates, etc. In other industries, some consumers even Can be made from the rigor of the product sign, preliminary judgment of the quality of the product and the degree of reliability. More importantly, consumers can rely on the results of the testing agency, and the 'one book, one card, one card' on the entry and exit, and the business confrontation So the mahogany furniture of tens of thousands of yuan and hundreds of thousands of yuan, there is no reason not to be equipped with 'one book, one card and one card'. I think the meaning of the "conditions" is also here."

"At present, some consumers often buy related books before buying mahogany furniture, and do a bit of hard work. When they buy, they also need to invite people who know how to help to identify, and fight with the business to prevent the name of the material. The hidden behind is tricky. After the introduction of the "conditions", the naming and classification have been standardized, and consumers can relax."

Vendor response polarization

Recently, the reporter visited the home stores of some mahogany furniture in Changhu Road and Anji Avenue in Nanning, and found that the reaction of the merchants was polarized. On the one hand, it is the positive response of famous brands. On the one hand, it is the burnout of “no-name cards”.

Zhejiang Nianhong Industrial Co., Ltd. is one of the main drafting units of the "Conditions". In the annual red store in Fu'anju, Dongning, Nanning, each set of mahogany furniture corresponds to a "one book, one card, one card". The clerk showed the reporter that the reporter saw that these product guarantee documents were made into a booklet with several pages. There were not only furniture photos, but also related seals, test certificates and so on. However, when the reporter asked for a closer look, he was rejected. The clerk said that this booklet is the "identity card" for furniture, and it is also a magic weapon for merchants. To avoid imitation, it is only for consumers.

How to express the contents of the warranty, the "Conditions" stipulates that there must be six items including the warranty period and product return conditions, in the Nanning Dajiahui Home Building Materials City Friendship Union. In addition to the above, the warranty card provided for the home mahogany furniture store also contains one-to-one bar code and warranty card number for consumers to register on the company's official website, which is beneficial to the merchant's tracking of consumer services. To help consumers make effective complaints. At this time, "one book, one card, one card" has become a carrier for merchants to increase the added value of mahogany products.

In contrast, the reporters found some merchants in the small factory of mahogany furniture on Anji Avenue and Xiuxiang Avenue. The owner of a mahogany furniture store that is produced and sold in Nanning said that his store has a complete set of "one book, one card, one card", but when the reporter asked her to show it, the other party said that it could not be taken temporarily. The reporter paid attention to the price tag placed on the mahogany furniture in the store, and still used the common name of the wood instead of the scientific name specified in the "Conditions", and the proportion of the materials could not be identified from the classification. And more workshop-style mahogany furniture stores, the clerk did not even know the new regulations, a clerk even more blunt: "Now the mahogany market is so chaotic, a lot of fake mahogany, those miscellaneous small factories, how will be willing to spend This stuff?"

According to industry insiders, the "Conditions" "is a small factory that is not standardized", brand manufacturers will feel that it is logical and welcome to raise hands; miscellaneous brands often face rectification, so they will be reluctant. However, for another angle, this is beneficial to small factories to regulate production, improve management, and enhance credibility. It is a win-win situation.

Lack of understanding misunderstanding

In communication with many insiders, the reporter found that although the "Conditions" have been published for more than four months, many people lack of learning and understanding of the "conditions", there are misunderstandings and doubts.

There is a lot of mahogany merchants in a home store in Nanning. A senior manager of the store has not paid attention to the "Conditions". After reading the media reports produced by the reporters, he mistakenly thought that this "one book, one card, one The "certificate" will serve as the basis for legal arbitration. Worried that the merchant "will be a referee and an athlete, will it further aggravate the market chaos"?

Afterwards, one of the main drafters of the "Conditions", Xu Feng, a professor at Guangxi University, dismissed the question: "One book, one card, one card" is the basis for the identity of the product before the transaction. When a dispute arises, it can be used as a legal basis, but it cannot be used as an arbitration. According to the requirements, you need to be identified by a third-party accreditation body with relevant qualifications.

The high-end of the home store was informed that in February 2013, after the implementation of the "Conditions", there would be no "one book, one card, one card" business, and will not be sold. As a store manager, how to control and how to implement the "clearing field", there is still no number in my heart, still waiting to see. When interviewed by reporters, he can only express his position that he will strictly enforce the state's mandatory regulations.

The clerk of a mahogany furniture store did not understand the rules in the "Conditions". She only saw in the media that "Conditions" advocated "redwood transparent consumption", and she mistakenly thought that all aspects of mahogany furniture would be limited. She said: "The mahogany furniture is largely a work of art and a collection. If all aspects are listed, is mahogany furniture a product of the industrial assembly line?"

According to industry insiders, the "Conditions" only specify how to name and classify mahogany products. How to make a product "one book, one card, one card", different processes and materials can correspond to it. Some misunderstandings also indicate that the relevant departments need to carry out in-depth publicity on the policy and implement the rules.

Interpretation

Product name should contain

Chinese name and Latin name

Xu Feng, a professor at Guangxi University, was called "Sherlock Holmes in the wood identification industry" by the industry. He is also one of the main drafters of "General Technical Conditions for Mahogany Furniture". Recently, Professor Xu Feng combined several cases to expound some highlights of the General Technical Conditions of Redwood Furniture.

Identification should be done before the materials are put into production

Case: Recently, Mr. Li spent more than 2 million yuan and purchased more than a dozen sets of mahogany furniture. The sales list indicates that the batch of mahogany furniture "is all Laos red rosewood." In order to further verify, Mr. Li invited third-party testing institutions with relevant qualifications to go to the appraisal. The results of the appraisal: Most of the visible parts of the furniture surface are Laos red rosewood (scientific name: Sian rosewood), while the small part is Ou Dalbergia and Barry Dalbergia, on the market, Laos red rosewood is about ten times more expensive than Aussie Dalbergia and Barry Dalbergia.

Corresponding to the "General Technical Conditions for Mahogany Furniture", it is mandatory that the name of the timber should be confirmed before the production materials are put into use. It is not possible to confirm that the wood with the correct name should be identified and identified by wood. The appraisal conclusion is only for the use of the enterprise and the use of the product. in accordance with. Like the things that Mr. Li encountered, it may be that the manufacturer deliberately did it, and it is also possible that the manufacturer was deceived before it was put into production.

Professor Xu Feng explained that in the event of a dispute, the appraisal cannot be used as the basis for arbitration, but should be identified by a third-party appraisal agency with relevant qualifications. However, it is still necessary to determine the manufacturer's obligation to identify timber, which is equivalent to a bright identity and can be used as a legal basis.

Professor Xu Feng made a further analysis: After the implementation of the "Conditions", Mr. Li's purchase of mahogany materials, you can not use "Laos red rosewood", but should use the scientific name "crossed Dalbergia". The "product naming" of this batch of mahogany furniture should be a variety of products of Chinese literary name, such as Dalbergia fusca three-piece palace chair. Professor Xu said that Hainan huanghuali, which is well known, should be labeled as Dalbergia sinensis (species) or fragrant wood (class) in the business activities according to the "Conditions". "Hainan huanghuali" is regarded as the market is not standardized. name.
