Is fiberglass furniture harmful to human health?

Furniture is a necessary thing for everyone and every family. Nowadays, there are more and more types of furniture, and fiberglass furniture is becoming more and more popular. Furniture is a long-term contact item in life. So do you know whether fiberglass furniture is harmful to human health?

First of all, fiberglass, as a typical composite material, is composed of glass fiber and unsaturated polyester resin. Usually, glass fibers are woven into glass fiber cloth in advance, and then compounded with unsaturated polyester resin and other materials, after curing, it can be made into fiberglass products.

Unsaturated polyester resin contains styrene and has irritating gas. Long-term exposure is not good for health, so you need to wear a mask when making it. However, the chemical properties are stable, and there is basically no harm to the human body after curing. Although it is not harmful, it needs to be polished when making FRP components. During the grinding process, a lot of dust will be generated. Long-term inhalation will still cause harm to the respiratory system of the body, so as long as it is not exposed to FRP dust for a long time, there is no harm.

Moreover, fiberglass furniture does not contain formaldehyde and other volatile substances that are harmful to human body in wood-based panel furniture. The product quality meets the national standards, and the basic fire resistance performance meets the test standard requirements of the National Fire Equipment Quality Inspection Center. After adding FRP furniture, we also need to do some necessary maintenance on it to ensure that there is no possibility of harming human health. Pay attention to avoid friction to generate dust during moving.Therefore, fiberglass furniture is not harmful to human health in daily use.
