Introduction: the first international standard for furniture made by China - "test methods for strength and durability of furniture bed" will be announced soon. Held in Copenhagen, the international organization for standardization furniture Standardization Technical Committee (hereinafter referred to as the "ISO/TC 136") Thirteenth Annual Meeting, by China assume ISO/TC 136 class test bed working group (hereinafter referred to as "WG4") to the Secretariat, from various countries of the world furniture standardization experts work report.

The first international standard for furniture made in China -- "test methods for strength and durability of furniture beds" will be announced soon. Held in Copenhagen, the international organization for standardization furniture Standardization Technical Committee (hereinafter referred to as the "ISO/TC 136") Thirteenth Annual Meeting, by China assume ISO/TC 136 class test bed working group (hereinafter referred to as "WG4") to the Secretariat, from various countries of the world furniture standardization experts work report.

Since May 2014, at the twelfth annual meeting of ISO/TC 136, the standard has been successfully carried out for two years, and in May just passed the draft of the international standard draft. The making of this international standard, blank strength and durability test method will not only fill the international standard in bed furniture, also means that China furniture industry has considerable strength in mechanical test standards, marking the China furniture industry won the standard voice in the world.

Making international standards. The first international standard for furniture made by China is being prepared. In June 15th, the committee draft (CD version) international expert technical advice and feedback sent via the WG4 Secretariat to domestic WG4 registered expert hands; in June 24th, domestic experts will focus on all the proposed amendments to discuss amendments to the draft standards; in July 11th, China's furniture industry leader, ISO/TC 136 WG4 Convener and other related technical personnel will Copenhagen to attend the Thirteenth Annual Meeting of the ISO/TC 136, oriented from various countries furniture standardization experts work report.

It has been more than two years since the international standard named "test method for strength and durability of furniture bed" was established. In May 20, 2014, by the National Standardization Management Committee (SAC), sponsored by the Shanghai quality supervision and Inspection Institute of Technology (SQI) hosted the 136 ISO/TC twelfth annual meeting, China first proposed to assume new standard "bed furniture furniture bed strength and durability test method" work and the establishment of a new working group WG4 "bed test method", and get unanimous, so far, Chinese furniture for the first time to participate in the formulation of international standards.

Replace national standards. The right to make international standards for this kind of furniture, which means that the Chinese furniture industry in the mechanical experiment and testing standards have considerable strength. In May 2014, Zhu Changling, chairman of the China Furniture Association, made the national furniture standardization conference report at the twelfth annual meeting of ISO/TC 136. As of 2014, China has issued 128 furniture standards, including 62 national standards and 66 industrial standards. As early as 1989, the national standard GB/T 10357.6-1989 was introduced for the strength and durability test of single bed, and was revised in 2012. China's furniture industry in the furniture mechanical strength testing standards are relatively strong, this time is based on the existing standards in the country to start the formulation of this international standard.
