Buying building materials must have a contractual awareness

Since the beginning of this year, Xi'an Industry and Commerce Department has investigated and dealt with 47 illegal cases in the anti-counterfeiting law enforcement of the building decoration and decoration materials market. As the home decoration market continues to heat up, Xi'an Industry and Commerce Department has released consumer warnings recently. Consumers must buy contract materials and be aware of the contract.

It is understood that from the middle of January this year, the Xi'an Industrial and Commercial Bureau launched a five-month anti-counterfeiting law enforcement campaign for the building decoration and decoration materials market, and achieved remarkable results. According to statistics, the city's industrial and commercial system has dispatched 4021 law enforcement personnel, banned 59 unlicensed businesses, and investigated 47 illegal cases, with a case value of 560,000 yuan.

In the operation, the industrial and commercial departments went deep into the building materials wholesale market, decoration and decoration materials market and other business sites, such as steel, cement, adhesives, interior wall latex paint and other decoration materials, especially in the rural construction market, cement, construction steel, architectural coatings And other key commodities to carry out special governance.

Through special law enforcement, the industry and commerce department has found four major problems. Among them, the unqualified profile is mainly the dimensional change rate after heating and the partial film thickness of the composite film is unqualified. The unqualified index can directly affect the sealing property of the finished door and window; the unqualified plate is mainly due to insufficient surface bonding strength, and the performance is directly It affects the service life and decorative effect of the product; the unqualified items of the tile are mainly the failure strength; the unqualified items of the steel bar are mainly the midpoint height, the transverse rib spacing and the weight deviation of the transverse ribs.

In this regard, Xi'an Industrial and Commercial Bureau issued a consumer warning to remind consumers to buy building materials, first of all, to see the goods. Pay attention to the wall thickness of the profile and the thickness of the surface coating. The product should have good gloss. The thickness of the aluminum like door and window material should be no less than 1.2mm. Second, we must see the "identity card" of the goods. The quality of the products purchased in the formal business premises is relatively guaranteed. The purchase of building materials depends on the certificate of conformity and the quality inspection report. Finally, there must be a sense of contract. Regardless of whether it is in stock or customized, you should sign a contract or agreement carefully. The important terms such as product quality, environmental protection requirements, delivery deadline, free and fee range, and liability for breach of contract should be clarified. Do not trust the salesperson's verbal commitment.
