In 2018, in order to speed up the improvement of
environmental air quality, State Council proposed the "three-year action
plan to fight air pollution".
On May 15th, 2020, the
Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued the "2020 Volatile Organic Compounds
Governance Plan (Draft for Comments)",
which clearly stated that from July 1st, 2020, the production, sales and use of
ship coatings and floor coatings should meet the newly promulgated and
implemented national product harmful substance limit standards, architectural
coatings and adhesive products in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region must meet
the requirements of the "Volatile Organic Compound Content Limit Standard
for architectural coatings and Adhesives".
Summary of the
new standard
In March 2020, the National Standardization Administration
announced the approval and release of the "Limit of harmful substances of
woodenware coatings" and other volatile organic compounds (VOC) and other harmful
substances limit requirements, as follows:

Relevant enterprises should ensure that products
meet the relevant national standards after the implementation time. At present,
local or regional laws, regulations and rules have been issued in accordance
with the "Air Pollution Prevention and Control Law" and "Winning
the battle against air pollution". Traditional high-risk and
high-polluting products must be upgraded and modified to meet the requirements
of green production.
