The so-called pure solid wood particle board is inexplicable. No matter how high-level it is, a large amount of glue is used as a binder. A large amount of formaldehyde glue and rich benzene are not solved by edge banding. .
But various MDF furniture still occupies more than half of the total furniture market share. The secret lies in the cost, but also in its terminal sales price-the price that ordinary Chinese consume.

It is not clear. Please note that the country does not have a standard for pure solid wood furniture, but solid wood.
