How does the choice of edgebanding affect the wear resistance and water resistance of furniture?

The choice of edgebanding has a significant impact on the wear resistance and water resistance of furniture, as shown below:

Wear resistance:

Material type: Edgeband materials such as PVC, ABS, wood, phenolic paper, etc. have different wear resistance. PVC and ABS edgebands are generally more wear-resistant and less prone to scratching, while wooden edgebands may be more easily damaged.
Thickness and hardness: The thickness and hardness of the edgeband directly affect its wear resistance. Thicker edgebands generally provide better wear protection.
Surface treatment: The surface treatment of the edgeband is also important. Specially treated edgebands, such as surface coating or embossing, can increase their wear resistance.
Waterproofness:

Material water resistance: The water resistance of edgebands of different materials varies. For example, PVC and ABS materials are generally good at water resistance, while wooden edgebands may be prone to moisture absorption.
Edge banding effect of edgebands: The edge banding treatment of the edgeband must be complete to ensure that there are no gaps. Good edge sealing can effectively prevent moisture from penetrating into the board, thereby improving the waterproofness of the furniture.
Adhesive selection: Using an adhesive with good waterproof performance (such as hot melt adhesive) can enhance the waterproofness of the edge band and reduce the impact of moisture on the edge band and board.
