1 Scope

GB/T 32151.20-2024 is the furniture part of the Chinese greenhouse gas accounting and reporting series. China is by a wide margin the world's largest furniture exporter, and the sector is being asked for emissions data by its overseas customers faster than by its own regulator, which makes a common Chinese method commercially useful rather than merely administrative. A furniture plant's own emissions are modest and mostly indirect, electricity for machining, dust extraction and compressed air, with direct emissions from drying kilns, finishing ovens and thermal oxidisers and from the adhesives and coatings applied. The standard sets the accounting boundary for a furniture production enterprise, the measurement and monitoring requirements, the calculation steps and methods for each emission source, the data quality management and the content and format of the report, with informative annexes giving the reporting template and the default parameter values. It takes effect on 1 May 2025.

This document specifies the accounting boundaries, measurement and monitoring requirements, data quality management, and reporting requirements for greenhouse gas emissions of furniture manufacturers. The content and format describe the accounting steps and methods. This document applies to the accounting and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions by furniture manufacturers.
