Its inspection scope covers furniture and raw and auxiliary materials, with authorized testing items including various types of office furniture. It covers multiple indicators such as appearance, physical and chemical properties, mechanical properties, and hazardous substance performance, involving nearly 300 testing standards. For office chairs, it can test core performance aspects such as the abrasion resistance of surface coatings, the static load strength of chair backs, and the abrasion resistance of casters, while also strictly screening for harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene to provide comprehensive quality assurance for products.
