What are the commonly used standards for formaldehyde testing?

Formaldehyde has always been an important chemical substance that pollutes the environment and harms human health. It is also a synthetic material additive that people have always criticized. Because formaldehyde is harmful to the human body, the country has clear regulations and industry standards for the formaldehyde content of synthetic materials. Commonly used formaldehyde content detection standards are as follows: 1. Wood EN 120:1992 'Determination of Formaldehyde Content in Wood Boards—Perforation Extraction Method' Scope of application: Non-laminated boards and uncoated wood boards: particleboard, medium density fiberboard. BS EN 717-1: 2004 'Determination of Formaldehyde Emission in Wood Boards: Part One: Determination of Formaldehyde Emission by Air Chamber Method' Scope of application: all types of boards. BS EN 717-2: 1994 'Determination of Formaldehyde Emission in Wood Boards: Part 2 Determination of Formaldehyde Emission by Gas Analysis Method' Scope of application: All types of boards. BS EN 717-3: 1996 'Determination of formaldehyde emission in wooden boards: Part 3 Determination of formaldehyde emission by flask method' Scope of application: uncoated wooden boards.

What Are the ISTA Standard Tests and ISTA Testing Equipment?
ISTA (International Safe Transit Association) standard tests are globally recognized transportation packaging test procedures designed to evaluate the safety and reliability of products and their packaging throughout the logistics chain. By simulating real-world transportation conditions such as drops, vibration, impact, stacking, and compression, ISTA testing helps identify potential packaging weaknesses before products enter large-scale distribution. ISTA testing equipment—including drop testers, vibration testers, incline impact machines, and compression testers—plays a critical role in accurately reproducing these conditions under laboratory settings. Proper selection and use of ISTA-compliant equipment enable manufacturers to reduce transportation damage, lower return costs, enhance packaging design, and improve customer confidence in product quality and logistics safety.
