After arranging the work, Zhang Xiaofan immediately stood by and let this group of technicians tinker.

Zhang Xiaofan actually wants to do a subject, that is, solid wood.

Pressed panels like this always lose a natural color.

However, solid wood is extremely easy to deform, and so far, Zhang Xiaofan has not had many ways to solve it.

Although more than 90% of this kind of MDF can also be said to be solid wood, it is still a little bit worse in general.

The technology that solid wood is not deformed, this point should be traded to furniture manufacturers for research.

And at present, the mainstream furniture still uses solid wood and board furniture, most of which do not need to be sprayed, and when they are bought, there is a coating similar to PVC.

However, it is clear that this coating is not so good in terms of environmental protection, and this coating can easily release some toxic substances.

But consumers don't know that Zhang Xiaofan is helpless about this, and the development of technology always needs a process.

Therefore, when buying furniture, we must find out clearly, similar to fiberboard, whether it is low-density, medium-density or high-density, it is a relatively environmentally friendly category, there is not much volatile, and there are few harmful components, but when selecting samples, we still have to choose some assured brands.

Of course, the best nature is solid wood.

And solid wood is also relatively easy to distinguish, most people can distinguish solid wood.

The progress of the experiment is very fast, and in about a week, a complete set of relatively mature construction technology has been sorted out.

Sitting in Liu Pingfeng's office, Zhang Xiaofan was a little embarrassed to take it out at this time, because of this process, the problem is nothing, but the cost is relatively high.

It's not that the cost of the process is high, but the price of raw materials involved in this process is relatively high.

In particular, the cost of conductive primer is relatively high, because water-based coatings have just emerged for less than three years, so its technical content is not necessarily high, but the price is not low.

However, Zhang Xiaofan still told Liu Pingfeng all these pros and cons.

"Brother Liu, I have said everything that should be said, how to choose, you make your own decision. ”

Zhang Xiaofan actually regretted it, who knew that the price of MDF is so high now, and the price of conductive primer is also very expensive.

Therefore, the price of this whole set of furniture can catch up with the top price of mid-range furniture, but it is still not high-end furniture.

It's just that in terms of environmental protection, it is much more high-end than other mid-range furniture.

Although Zhang Xiaofan cannot guarantee 100% environmental protection, compared with the solid wood furniture sprayed with paint, the exhaust gas generated is much less.

Now Liu Pingfeng is also very hesitant, if he really engages in this thing, it is obvious that the profit will be much thinner.

But if you don't do it, and you are not reconciled, no matter how you say it, in Liu Pingfeng's heart, this set of processes can definitely be regarded as a very advanced process.

"Why don't you give me an idea?"

Zhang Xiaofan naturally knows that Liu Pingfeng is wavering now.

This kind of thing will definitely be the mainstream in the future, and with the gradual enhancement of the concept of environmental protection, oil to powder is definitely the most correct direction.

In the future, oil-based coatings will definitely be further suppressed by the state, so as to vigorously promote powder coatings and water-based coatings.

However, the limitations of water-based coatings are still quite strong, and water-based coatings have very high requirements for surface treatment.

Imagine that if there is a slight bit of oil on the surface, or something else that has a slightly less surface tension, it is easy to develop surface defects.

Water-based coatings are like this, if they are not done well, there will be defects such as shrinkage holes, powder coatings are different, the surface treatment is not so strict, and the recycling rate is very high, it can be said that the utilization rate is 99.9%.

Compared with water-based coatings, it is more environmentally friendly.

Liu Pingfeng couldn't make up his mind, and of course Zhang Xiaofan couldn't make a decision for him, because Zhang Xiaofan knew that Liu Pingfeng was eighty or ninety percent and would believe in himself.

"If you want to enter the furniture industry, you can give it a try if you develop and produce furniture yourself. ”

"That's for sure, the profits of the furniture industry are very high, I know this, but your craftsmanship is ......"

"My process is just a preliminary process, very rough, must be constantly improved, of course, I will also believe that the price of various materials will continue to fall, this is not denying it, right?"

The progress of science and technology will inevitably bring about a decrease in the price of materials and an improvement in quality.

There is no doubt about that.

"So what do you mean?"

"If you really want to enter the furniture industry, you can now make a small test, the scale is not bigger, and you can ensure that you don't lose money.

Then continue to study my set of technology, so that this set of technology is more refined, more reasonable, and when the price of the plate drops in large quantities, you can start your ambition at this time. ”

"You can consider ......"

This kind of thing is definitely not a one-word decision, and it is not Zhang Xiaofan's career to leave and right, so he doesn't need to worry about anything, but some of his thoughts can still be said to him.

"At the beginning, you can experiment with the market a little bit and make some custom furniture and the like, such as IKEA, which has done a very good job in high-end furniture, and has always been based on high-end custom furniture.

You can try to develop in this direction, for the high-end furniture market, do some personalized customization, so that even if the cost is high, your profit will not be less.

Moreover, if you really succeed, it should become a big furniture brand.

I can also customize some special colors according to some of your high-end customer requirements.

But first of all, the price will not be low!"

After speaking, Zhang Xiaofan also deliberately shook his brows.

"TM, you're really out of the money, I'll think about it again!"

"Okay, I'll hear from you. ”

Zhang Xiaofan was not disappointed, because for Zhang Xiaofan, this time it was a study of the process, and it did not cost much.

Anyway, sooner or later, this process will be developed by others, which is the inevitable product of the development of the times, and the change of oil to powder is also an inevitable trend, and this process will definitely be used in the future.

What's more, Zhang Xiaofan did think of a more realistic coating.

That is to say, at present, the profit margin is relatively high, and it is widely used in a coating.

That's the thermal transfer coating.

Zhang Xiaofan's next step is to study this kind of paint, I really didn't think of such a paint before, but now that I think of it, I naturally have to step up my research.

Although Zhang Xiaofan has a formula, the heat transfer coating is not enough.

Obviously, its process requirements are very high, and if you don't have a certain experience, there are not many technologies that can make the effect you want.
