Children's paint - a vital place for healthy coatings

The child is the center of the family and the hope of the parents. The parents are willing to give the best things to the children, of course, the decoration is no exception.

According to the physical characteristics of children, developed countries all have children's special paint supply. In Europe and the United States, it has become a common practice to use children's paint for the decoration of children's rooms. No matter whether it is a family DIY or a decoration company, children's rooms do not need to be reminded at all. In China, many parents decorate their children's rooms while decorating the house. They do not realize that children's room paints require special attention and choice.

Now, with the growing awareness of parents' healthy decoration, children's paint sales are growing rapidly on the market. Therefore, the development of paints for children is a requirement of Chinese parents and a requirement of the entire society.

Carpoly, Dulux, Finlay, PPG, China Resources, Mei Tushi, Fuya, Three Trees and other well-known brands of paint at home and abroad have launched their own children's paint products, according to incomplete statistics, the current launch of children's paint products There are more than 30 companies and about 10 companies have a certain reputation. In the children's paint market competition, who can become the biggest winner in China's children's paint market is still unknown. The children's paints in the market are uneven and the product homogeneity is serious. Therefore, there is still a lot of competition for children's paint.

At present, the domestic children's paint market is not standardized enough. The specific national standards for children's paints have not yet been introduced. Various performance indicators are based on the so-called national standards for each company to characterize its own products. For the current situation of children's room decoration paint, industry experts believe that in the absence of national standards, parents choose children's room decoration paint, it is necessary to understand the situation of children's paint brand, while several technical requirements for children's paint Have a grasp, and then according to color design, manufacturers provide services, prices and other factors to select the appropriate decoration paint.

Compared with ordinary paint, qualified children's paint should have the following four characteristics:

First of all, to be environmentally friendly, the content of harmful substances such as VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) should be extremely low or even zero;

Second, to scrub, not easy to powder;

Third, gloss is higher than ordinary wall paint, so it can protect eyesight;

Finally, it needs to be able to bring out rich colors.

In view of the current mixed phenomenon in the children's paint market, the Dresdner children's paint engineers also recommend consumers to be cautious when choosing children's paints. Do not try to buy cheap, want to see whether children's paint products meet the national standards for hazardous substances, in general, that the paint is in line with the standards are safe. At the same time can not be superstitious on the "children's paint" word on the paint packaging, should pay attention to whether the logo on the drum is complete. If the paint bucket is opened, if it is found that there is serious stratification, it means that the quality is poor, and the lighter the paint, the finer the better. It is best not to buy paints with added flavors, because the additive itself is a chemical product and less environmentally friendly.
