GB 18580-2025 Indoor Decorating and Refurbishing Materials — Limit of Formaldehyde Emission from Wood-based Panels and Finished Productswill officially take effect on June 1, 2026.​ The standard establishes the E0 grade​ (≤0.050 mg/m³) as a mandatory market access threshold for wood-based panel finished products intended for indoor use (e.g., wooden doors, flooring, custom cabinets), replacing the previous E1 grade​ (≤0.124 mg/m³). However, the phrase "E0 grade is included in mandatory standards for the first time" is inaccurate; the E0 classification has existed since GB/T 39600-2021​ as a recommended (voluntary) grading. This update marks the first time it has been set as a statutory minimum requirement​ for indoor finished products within a mandatory national standard.

New LiDAR technology enables "single-tree level" 3D modeling, capable of penetrating forest canopies and performing automatic individual tree segmentation (accuracy >95%) while extracting tree height, DBH, and volume with high precision, significantly boosting forest inventory efficiency. However, this progress is the result of synergistic evolution across multi-platforms (airborne/backpack/handheld) and AI algorithms, rather than an isolated technological breakthrough disclosed solely in May 2026.

Driven by the dual forces of China’s "Dual Carbon" strategy and the growing demand for home health, a milestone breakthrough has been achieved in the field of wood adhesive technology: plant-protein-based "formaldehyde-free" adhesives have officially entered industrial mass production.

"China boasts the world’s most abundant bamboo resources, the most complete industrial chain, and the largest industrial scale. The 110 million mu of bamboo forests are a rich natural endowment bestowed by nature upon the Chinese nation. At present, China’s bamboo industry is in a golden period of development, with overlapping opportunities in policy, market, and technology," said Chu Fuxiang, Chairman of the Sixth Council of the China Bamboo Industry Association.
