Where will old furniture go

Recycling old objects is really a science, especially the proper disposal of old furniture. However, with the fiery market for secondary renovation of old residences, a large number of consumers are faced with the problem of throwing away old furniture with pity and nowhere to place. In foreign countries, old furniture, electrical appliances and other household items have been reused in the form of bartering. For example, New Zealand, the old goods market is quite common. Various reusable furniture and decorations rely on this market in each Pass in the family.

● Inadequate furniture recycling brings inferior charging

The situation of furniture recycling is different in China and abroad. So, how to dispose of old furniture is reasonable and does not cause a burden on the environment? After searching around, the author found that there is no more systematic furniture recycling agency in the domestic market, and the mainstream furniture brands are also unable to deal with recycling issues for various reasons.

The fact is that the old furniture was either thrown next to the trash can or sold to the scrap buyer. Most of these old furniture have two kinds of destinations. One is to re-enter the second-hand market or secondary cities and other distribution channels after being refurbished; the other is to be processed and reused by informal small factories and become "new furniture for soup and medicine". ". Due to the lack of supervision on the flow of old furniture, it is inevitable that unqualified refurbished furniture will flow into the market without the knowledge of consumers.

● New recycling methods are emerging

It can be said that the proper recycling of a large amount of "garbage furniture" is still a blank that nobody cares about. In desperation, people can only sell them to scrap purchasers. Despite the good-looking furniture or mattresses, they can only get a response that "no one wants to break things", and can't receive a few dollars.

However, if the definition of recycling is relaxed, some new ways of "recycling" can also be seen. For example, some brands have changed "recycling" into "representation", of course, except for the use of old furniture. If you want to replace the furniture that has been used for a few months and the product return period for personal reasons, you may wish to discuss with the manufacturer, put the furniture in their discount store, and sell it at a discount. Will be returned to you in full. However, as with overdue returns, 30% of the purchase price of the furniture is your responsibility.

Who should do something for furniture recycling

Building Materials City repurchases old furniture as a new model to boost sales——Zhu Changling, Vice Chairman of China Furniture Association

It can be said that the current recycling of old furniture is no longer the role of the furniture industry. The repurchase of old furniture in furniture sales malls such as Outer City is just a form of sales, which deducts part of the cash for consumers Furniture is often sorted and recycled through channels such as scrap companies it works with. In addition, consumers can only sell unused furniture at a bargain price to individuals who collect old furniture, and after certain primary processing, return it to the secondary market for sale.

It is difficult to deal with the pressure of furniture recycling-Wen Shiquan, general manager of Yifeng Furniture

If old board furniture is thrown away at will, it will not only affect the city appearance, but also cause a certain pressure on the environment. Decomposing and recycling furniture is undoubtedly the best way to solve this problem. It can be a simple thing, but it is difficult. In this regard, Wen Shiquan said that at present, as a processing industry, furniture brands are useless to recycle used furniture. In fact, even if it is reluctant to recycle the panel furniture, it is not known what the old furniture is used for, and it may cause pressure on the brand. In addition, if the brand begins to recycle furniture, it may make consumers feel that the furniture they bought was refurbished from old furniture.

Big brands suspect high recycling costs

The small factory did it quietly but the technology didn't meet the standard-Jia Kaicheng, the manager of the after sales department of Nettle

Is it really difficult for the mainstream furniture brands on the market to recycle old furniture? Do consumers have this demand? Jia Kaicheng, the manager of the after-sales service department who has long been between consumers and manufacturers and has a better understanding of the needs of both parties, believes that there are three difficulties in recycling old furniture. First, the cost of recycling is too high. Due to the high technical content, the cost of recycling, decomposing, and reusing old furniture is much higher than the cost of direct production from raw materials, and it is difficult to operate. Second, the value of recycled furniture is low. At present, mainstream brands on the market have their own unique products. These products have different materials and colors, and even if they are recycled and decomposed, different brands cannot enter the production line. Third, it is difficult to determine the price of recycling. Recycling of furniture brands is different from that of individuals who recycle old objects, and there is a more standardized regulation on the recycling price. However, because manufacturers and consumers have different perceptions of new and old and use value, it is difficult to unify recycling prices.

In addition, although domestic furniture can be recycled, the technology has not yet reached the standard. Some private small factories make use of this, and specialize in recycling old furniture or furniture factory scraps, processing them, and selling them to consumers. This is the reason why the seemingly identical panel furniture differs in price. Therefore, when buying, consumers should not only be greedy for cheap.

Reduce furniture carbon emissions

Check the whole process of material selection, production, transportation and recycling——Zhou Yufeng, general manager of Roach Castle Home China

For furniture manufacturing companies that have not yet achieved low-carbon operation in furniture selection, production, and transportation, it may be difficult to make them worry about recycling. After all, the road to environmental protection is still long. Many mature brands that advocate an all-round environmental protection concept have already strictly controlled the low-energy operation of the entire process. Zhou Yufeng, general manager of Rocheburg Home Furnishing China, said that every material used in Rocheburg furniture, in addition to the design effect, is also important for the environment. It must be reusable. For example, an old sofa, each part can enter different channels as raw materials for other products. In addition, furniture transportation is an energy-consuming behavior, they try to use environmentally friendly materials for packaging, and choose the most efficient and low-energy transportation mode. Although they are also not responsible for furniture recycling, they guarantee that the elements of each piece of furniture will not pollute the environment no matter how they are handled.

Furniture design should consider recycling

Calculate the energy cost of the recycling process——Gu Xin, Simmons Bed and Xiatu Furniture General Agent

Regarding the recycling and secondary use of soft furniture such as mattresses and sofas, Gu Xin, the domestic general agent of Simmons Bedding and Xiatu Furniture, said that abroad, the production, sales and recycling of furniture are two systems. Generally speaking, Taking into account hygiene and health requirements, people will treat old mattresses and sofas as garbage and pay garbage disposal fees. The waste treatment system will subdivide different products, usually upholstered furniture will be differentiated into surface materials, internal fillers, frame structures and other parts, and then they will be classified and converted, such as the filler into plastic. It should be pointed out that when designing and producing products, furniture manufacturers will abide by certain design specifications. For example, in order to deal with product recycling, the cost of various materials in the process of recycling and conversion needs to be considered, and the best choice is made from the aspect of energy saving.

Strictly Prevent the Hygienic Hazards of Secondary Use of Furniture——Zhu Guangyu, Peugeot Furniture Marketing Director

Domestic furniture manufacturers do not have rigid guidelines on recycling and energy saving in furniture manufacturing, but the recycling rate of furniture is very high, but this part of the work is not undertaken by furniture manufacturing enterprises. Consumers are mostly troubled by how to properly dispose of old furniture. The common practice is to sell to the second-hand market, but it should be noted that for hygienic considerations, soft furniture is best to avoid repeated use by others.
