The manufacturer determined that the sample had used its factory name and address; the seller had sold it without authorization.

Analysts in the home furnishing industry pointed out that waterproof mortar, sealants, adhesives, waterproof coatings and other products are indispensable auxiliary materials in home decoration. The failure of auxiliary materials in home decoration is sometimes more serious than the failure of main materials. Pingchuan, a senior home decoration expert, said, "Home auxiliary materials are generally directly connected with home decoration companies. Consumers have less understanding and contact with auxiliary material brands. The auxiliary materials are not environmentally friendly, resulting in substandard home decoration, which causes great hidden harm to consumers."
