Redwood product grade standards formally implemented

Redwood is one of the most scarce resources in the world. The heritage of mahogany products and the promotion of culture are not only the symbol and symbol of Chinese civilization, but also the precious heritage of our nation and its important wealth for contribution to human society. As the global economy becomes increasingly integrated, the diversity of the world's culture is fully reflected. As a typical example of rooted in fertile soil of China and integrated with multiple cultures, mahogany products have been promoted as the high end of today's cultural products, and are favored by many consumers at home and abroad. The market is unprecedentedly prosperous. However, while prospering, the problems are also acute. As there has been no product grade standard for a long time, the production and distribution of mahogany products have led to unclear rules, and they have been fighting each other. The production companies have no uniform grade standards and cannot strictly control and manage quality. The quality of the product is more problematic; mahogany sales are based solely on the mouth, the public said that there is reason, the woman said that her husband reasonable, even worse, shoddy, and harm consumers. In recent years, the consumption complaints of mahogany products have been rising.

The focus of mahogany consumption is summed up in three words: "True, Good, and Price." "True" is real material. The raw material value of each mahogany is different, and the specific kind of mahogany is the first concern of the market consumption. Different species of redwood prices are completely different. Such as Hainan pear (Dingxiang Dalbergia) price per ton over 10 million, lobular rosewood (Sandalwood rosewood) price per ton of about 1 million. There is a big difference in the price of redwood in the same genus, which can reach several times or even more than ten times. Such as: red rosewood (Dalbergia japonica) and red rosewood, the price gap is very large. "Good" is a product quality problem. The quality of mahogany products involves many aspects such as design, craftsmanship, technology, etc. It is difficult for ordinary consumers to fully understand and master. How to solve? The most important method is to formulate grading standards, form a complete and unified hierarchy, and scientifically and intuitively resolve what is the "good" evaluation problem. "Price" is the price issue. This issue has a close relationship with "true" and "good." Is a genuine, high quality, price problem. Therefore, the issues that consumers are most concerned about need to be resolved through the mahogany product hierarchy.
