SilverAges A lpha Furniture Industries (SZ) Co.Ltd.
Materials that are safe for infants and children as they do not contain volatile organic compounds
VOC-free means materials that do not contain volatile organic compounds
Harmful substances among these can cause pollution and other health hazards.
Examples include sick house syndrome and chemical sensitivity caused by formaldehyde.
It is widely recognized in society and is a problem.

Exposure light resistance test of stain-resistant material SC synthetic leather
These are the test results of a one-year in-house outdoor exposure test on dirt-resistant SC synthetic leather material.
Silicone synthetic leather is a new material for the living room that does not contain volatile organic compounds, does not get dirty, does not smell, and is safe for the skin.
When it comes to the safety of infants and young children, it seems safer to keep genuine leather and PVC products away from their living environment.
Heavy metals such as hexavalent chromium are used in the processing of genuine leather, and there is a high possibility that these metals remain after they are not completely washed away. The smell of leather can also be described as the smell of chemicals. Leather is a material for the living room that should be kept away from the skin of infants and young children.
Vinyl synthetic leather contains volatile phthalate chemicals, even in small amounts. Even when citric acid esters are used as plasticizers for infants, the chemical substances still evaporate. If two PVC sheets are placed together, the volatile substances will react and the surface of the material will melt and become sticky. It is clear that it is best to prevent these sticky substances from coming into contact with infants' skin or entering their mouths.
Silicone synthetic leather is a material that is resistant to pollution, chemicals, fire, abrasion, and light, and can be used without worrying about chemical substances because it does not use any organic solvents or VOCs.
We have been continuously testing the product for light resistance, staining, peeling, etc. for the three years since we first obtained it, and have yet to find any deterioration, which supports the figures from official European test data.
Even if the test results are good, when it is put into an actual product, unexpected results can occur, like with PU materials, so I think it's best to trust the results of your own usage tests.
In addition to the exposure tests, we also created a product and had it used by the children who came to study and two terriers who had too much free time.
After two years of use, it has withstood the kids' food scraps, jumping, and the terrier's digging.
We have also completed the development of a new sofa product, a sofa with adjustable back and seat angle to suit the body shape of the person sitting on it, which we have been working on at the same time as material testing. We are now confident in selling living room products that do not contain volatile organic compounds and are safe for infants and young children, as well as bright-colored living room sofas, dining room sofas, and beds that do not get dirty.
Silicone synthetic leather is a new material for living that does not contain volatile organic, compounds does not stain or smell, and is safe and secure for the skin.
Considering the safety of infants, it seems safer to keep genuine leather and PVC products away from the living environment.
Heavy metals such as hexavalent chromium are used to process genuine leather, and there is a high possibility that they remain uncleaned. The smell of leather can be said to be the smell of chemicals. It can be said that it is a living room material that you want to keep away from the skin of infants.
Vinyl synthetic leather contains phthalates, which are volatile even in small amounts. Even if citric acid ester is used as a plasticizer for infants, it is certain that the chemical parts are volatile, and if PVC is placed together, the volatile react products and the surface of the material melts and becomes sticky. It is clear that it is better for this sticky causative part to stick to the skin of infants and not to be in the mouth
Silicone synthetic leather does not use any organic solvents or VOCs, so it is a material with excellent anti-contamination, chemical, fire, abrasion, and light resistance that can be used without worrying about chemical quality
From about three years ago when it was first obtained, it has been tested continuously for light fastness, pollution, peeling, etc., but no deterioration has been observed yet, which confirms the figures of official European test data.
Even if the test values are good, when it is actually commercialized, unexpected results may be obtained, such as PU materials, so I think it is best to believe in the results of the use test yourself
Apart from the exposure test, we made a product and had it used by children who came to study and two terriers who had a lot of free time.
For two years, it was enough to withstand the children's food scraps, jumping, and terrier burrowing.
At the same time as the material test, the development of a new sofa, a sofa that changes the back angle according to the body shape of the person sitting on it, has also been completed. Currently, we can confidently sell living products that do not contain volatile organic compounds and are safe and secure for infants, as well as brightly colored living sofas, dining sofas and beds without worrying about stains
