Expert interpretation

1. The antibacterial indicators still lack supervision

Can antibacterial floor really kill bacteria on the surface of the floor or even in the air? Relevant experts from the Interior Design Branch of the China Architectural Society explained this: “Almost all antibacterial floors are publicity stunts and their functions are artificially exaggerated. The world has not yet developed them. The floor that can completely eliminate bacteria. Consumers should not forget to strictly control the quality while paying attention to the function of the floor. "

Since the flooring industry has not introduced so-called antibacterial indicators, the inspection of this function is also in a vacuum. Nanjing forestry industry consumer experts said, "At present, there is still a lack of necessary supervision in the field of floor antibacterial products, and there are certain misleading pricing. The floor industry needs to formulate relevant supervision systems, and more need to combine medical, building materials, environmental protection and other industries, and cross-domain cooperation to introduce relevant specification."

2. Daily home cleaning is the key

The floor industry sources revealed that the rise of antibacterial flooring is also a "breakthrough" that many laminate flooring manufacturers have found in the past two years in search of new profit growth points. In addition, consumers are paying more and more attention to environmental issues, and the demand for antibacterial materials is strong. Some manufacturers have indeed developed products with a higher content of antibacterial agents, but the effect is not lasting. Industry insiders remind consumers that antibacterial does not mean sterilization. Antibacterial floor can only play a certain role in resisting bacteria on the surface of the floor. Its antibacterial effect is limited and cannot replace daily cleaning. Consumers should also consider the comprehensive indicators of brand quality, price and after-sales service when purchasing.
