Ukuqina, ukukhululeka ekuhlanzeni nokusebenza okuphezulu kubalulekile kubathengi uma bebheka izindwangu zokhuni.
Lapho abantu becabanga ngokudweba amakhaya abo, akuzona nje izindawo zangaphakathi nezangaphandle ezingasebenzisa okuqabulayo. Isibonelo, amadekhi angasebenzisa amabala. Ngaphakathi, amakhabethe nefenisha kungenziwa kabusha, kunikeze yona nendawo ezungezile ukubukeka okusha.
Ingxenye yezingubo zokhuni iyimakethe enkulu: I-Grand View Research iyibeka ku-$10.9 billion ngo-2022, kuyilapho i-Fortune Business Insights ibikezela ukuthi izofinyelela ku-$ 12.3 billion ngo-2027. Iningi layo liyi-DIY, njengoba imindeni ithatha la maphrojekthi okuthuthukisa ikhaya.
U-Brad Henderson, umqondisi, ukuphathwa kwemikhiqizo kwa-Benjamin Moore, uphawule ukuthi imakethe yezingubo zokhuni ihamba kangcono kunezingubo zezakhiwo sezizonke.
"Sikholelwa ukuthi imakethe yezingubo zokhuni ihambisana nemakethe yezindlu kanye nezinkomba ezingaphezulu kokuthuthukiswa nokugcinwa kwekhaya, njengokunakekelwa kwedeski kanye nokunwetshwa kokuthuthukiswa kwendlu yangaphandle," kubika u-Henderson.
U-Bilal Salahuddin, umqondisi wezohwebo wesifunda we-AkzoNobel's Wood Finishes ibhizinisi eNyakatho Melika, ubike ukuthi unyaka ka-2023 bekuwunyaka onzima ngenxa yesimo sezulu somnotho omkhulu emhlabeni wonke esiholela ezimeni ezingezinhle.
"Ukuqedwa kokhuni kusebenzisa izigaba zokusebenzisa imali ngokubona okukhulu, yingakho ukwehla kwamandla emali kunomthelela omkhulu ngokungenakuqhathaniswa ezimakethe zethu zokugcina," kusho uSalahuddin. “Ngaphezu kwalokho, imikhiqizo yokugcina ixhumene eduze nemakethe yezindlu, okwase kube nenselelo enkulu ngenxa yentela ephezulu kanye nokukhuphuka kwamanani ezindlu.
"Uma sibheke phambili, ngenkathi umbono ka-2024 uzinzile engxenyeni yokuqala, sinethemba elikhulu ngezinto ezizokwenzeka ngasekupheleni konyaka okuholela ekululameni okuqinile ngo-2025 nango-2026," kwengeza uSalahuddin.
U-Alex Adley, umphathi we-woodcare kanye ne-stain portfolio, i-PPG Architectural Coatings, ubike ukuthi imakethe yamabala, iyonke, ibonise ukukhula okulinganiselwe, okuyidijithi eyodwa ngo-2023.
"Izindawo zokukhula ezimbotsheni zokhuni e-US naseCanada zibonwe ohlangothini lwe-Pro uma kuziwa ekusetshenzisweni okukhethekile, okuhlanganisa iminyango namafasitela namakamelo okungena," kusho u-Adley.
Izimakethe Zokukhula Kwezingubo Zokukhuni
Kunamathuba amaningi okukhula emkhakheni wezingubo zokhuni. UMaddie Tucker, umphathi omkhulu wohlobo lwe-woodcare, iMinwax, uthe imakethe eyodwa ebalulekile yokukhula embonini ukwanda kwesidingo semikhiqizo ehlala isikhathi eside futhi esebenza kahle enikeza ukuvikeleka okuhlala isikhathi eside kanye nobuhle ezindaweni ezahlukahlukene.
“Uma abathengi sebeqedile ukwenza iphrojekthi ethile, bafuna ukuthi ihlale isikhathi eside, futhi amakhasimende afuna izinto zokhuni zangaphakathi ezingamelana nokuguga kwansuku zonke, amabala, ukungcola, isikhutha nokugqwala,” kuphawula uTucker. "I-polyurethane wood finish ingasiza ezinhlelweni zangaphakathi njengoba ingenye yezinto ezihlala isikhathi eside zokuvikela ukhuni - ezivikela imihuzuko, ukuchitheka nokunye - futhi iyijazi elicacile. Futhi iguquguquka kakhulu njengoba i-Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane Wood Finish ingasetshenziswa kumaphrojekthi wokhuni aqediwe nangakaqediwe futhi atholakala ngezinhlobonhlobo zama-sheen."
"Imakethe yezingubo zokhuni ibhekene nokukhula okubangelwa izici ezifana nentuthuko yezokwakha kanye nezindawo ezithengiswayo, ukwanda kwesidingo sefenisha emhlabeni wonke, izitayela zemiklamo yangaphakathi, amaphrojekthi okulungisa kabusha, futhi ngenxa yokugxila ekukhetheni okuvumelana nemvelo, ukukhula kwezingubo kusetshenziswa intuthuko yezobuchwepheshe efana nezingubo ezilaphekayo ze-UV kanye nokwakhiwa kwamanzi," kusho uRick Bautista, umqondisi wezokumaketha kwe-Floint Group e-BEHR. "Lezi zindlela zikhomba imakethe eguquguqukayo enamathuba okuba abakhiqizi nabahlinzeki bempahla bahlangabezane nezidingo ezahlukahlukene zabathengi ngenkathi kubhekwana nemvelo."
"Imakethe yezingubo zokhuni ihambisana nemakethe yezindlu; futhi silindele ukuthi imakethe yezindlu ihlukaniswe kakhulu futhi ibe yindawo ngo-2024," kuphawula u-Henderson. "Ngaphezu kokungcolisa idekhi noma uhlaka lwendlu, inkambiso ebona ukuvela kabusha ingcolisa amaphrojekthi wefenisha yangaphandle."
USalahuddin uveze ukuthi ukumbozwa ngokhuni kusebenza izingxenye ezibucayi njengemikhiqizo yokwakha, amakhabethe, phansi kanye nefenisha.
"Lezi zingxenye ziyaqhubeka nokuba nezimo eziqinile esikhathini eside ezizoqhubeka nokukhulisa imakethe," kwengeza uSalahuddin. “Isibonelo, sisebenza ezimakethe eziningi ezinabantu abakhulayo kanye nentulekayo yezindlu.Ngaphezu kwalokho, emazweni amaningi, amakhaya akhona ayaguga futhi adinga ukulungiswa kabusha nokulungiswa.
"Ubuchwepheshe bubuye bushintshe, okunikeza ithuba lokuqhubeka nokuthuthukisa izinkuni njengento yokuzikhethela," kwengeza uSalahuddin. "Izimfuno nezidingo zekhasimende bezilokhu zivela ngokugxila okungaguquki ezindaweni ezibalulekile ezishiwo kuzici zangaphambilini. Ngo-2022, izifundo ezifana nekhwalithi yomoya wasendlini, imikhiqizo engenayo i-formaldehyde, izinto ezivimbela umlilo, amasistimu okwelapha ama-UV, nezisombululo zokulwa namagciwane/zokuvikela amagciwane zahlala zibalulekile. Imakethe yabonisa ukuqwashisa okukhulayo kwempilo nokuphila kahle.
"Ngo-2023, lezi zihloko zagcina ukuhambisana kwazo ngokwanda okuphawulekayo ekwamukelweni kobuchwepheshe bamanzi," kuphawula uSalahuddin. “Ngaphezu kwalokho, izixazululo ezisimeme, ezihlanganisa imikhiqizo esekelwe ku-bio/evuselelekayo, izixazululo zokwelapha ezingasebenzisi amandla amancane, kanye nemikhiqizo ehlala isikhathi eside, sezibaluleke kakhulu. ukuthuthukiswa kwezidingo zezimboni.”
Amathrendi e-Wood Care Coatings
Kukhona amathrendi athakazelisayo okufanele uwaqaphele. Isibonelo, u-Bautista uthe endaweni yokunakekelwa kwezinkuni, amathrendi akamuva agcizelela inhlanganisela yemibala egqamile, ukusebenza okuthuthukisiwe, nezindlela zokusebenza ezisebenziseka kalula.
"Abathengi baya ngokuya bekhangwa izinketho zombala ezinesibindi neziyingqayizivele ukuze benze izikhala zabo zibe ngezakho, eceleni kwezingubo ezinikeza ukuvikeleka okuphezulu ekugqokeni, imihuzuko," kusho u-Bautista. “Ngasikhathi sinye, kunesidingo esikhulayo sama-coatings okulula ukuwafaka, kungaba ngesifutho, ibhulashi, noma izindlela zokusula, okuphakela ochwepheshe kanye nabathandi be-DIY.”
"Izindlela zamanje zokuthuthukiswa kwe-coatings zibonisa ukucutshungulwa ngokucophelela kwezintandokazi zakamuva zokuklama," kusho uSalahuddin. “Insizakalo yezobuchwepheshe ye-AkzoNobel kanye namaqembu omhlaba jikelele wemibala nokuklama asebenzisana eduze ukuze aqinisekise ukuthi ukuqedwa akugcini nje ngokuqina, kodwa futhi kufanelekile ezimbonini zomhlaba wonke.
"Ekuphenduleni amathonya esimanje kanye nokuthandwa komklamo wezinga eliphezulu, kukhona ukuvuma isidingo sokuba yingxenye kanye nokuqinisekiswa ebusweni bezwe elingaqinisekile. Abantu bafuna izindawo ezibonisa ukuzola kuyilapho benikeza izikhathi zenjabulo kulokho ababhekana nakho kwansuku zonke, "kusho uSalahuddin. "Umbala Wonyaka we-AkzoNobel ka-2024, i-Sweet Embrace, uhlanganisa le mizwa. Lo mbala ophinki ophuzi, ogqugquzelwa izimpaphe ezithambile namafu asebusuku, uhlose ukuvusa imizwa yokuthula, induduzo, isiqinisekiso kanye nokulula."
"Imibala iyahamba isuka emibaleni e-blonde ngokuphaphathekile, iye kwensundu ngokumnyama," kubika u-Adley. "Eqinisweni, izinhlobo zokunakekelwa kwezinkuni ze-PPG ziqale isikhathi esimatasa kakhulu sonyaka samabala angaphandle ngoMashi 19, ngokumemezela i-PPG's 2024 Stain Color of the Year njengeBlack Walnut, umbala ohlanganisa ukuthambekela kwemibala njengamanje."
"Kunomkhuba wokuqedwa kokhuni njengamanje oncika kuma-midtones afudumele futhi ungene emithunzini emnyama," kusho u-Ashley McCollum, umphathi wezokumaketha we-PPG kanye nochwepheshe bemibala yomhlaba, ama-architectural coatings, lapho ememezela Umbala Webala Wonyaka. "Ama-Walnut Amnyama avala igebe phakathi kwalawo mathoni, aveza imfudumalo ngaphandle kokushintsha imibala ebomvu. Umthunzi oshintshashintshashintshayo oveza ubuhle futhi wamukele izivakashi ngokwanga okufudumele."
U-Adley wengeze ngokuthi ukuhlanza okulula kuyathakazelisa kubasebenzisi.
"Amakhasimende athambekele emikhiqizweni ephansi ye-VOC, ehlinzeka ngokuhlanzeka okulula ngemuva kokungcoliswa ngokusebenzisa insipho namanzi," kuphawula u-Adley.
"Imboni yokumboza ngokhuni ibheke ekwenzeni ibala libe lula futhi liphephe," kusho u-Adley. “Izinhlobo zokunakekelwa kwezinkuni ze-PPG, okuhlanganisa i-PPG Proluxe, i-Olympic ne-Pittsburgh Paints & Stain, zihlose ukuqinisekisa ukuthi amakhasimende angochwepheshe nawe-DIY anolwazi namathuluzi awadingayo ukuze athenge ngendlela efanele futhi azizwe ekhululekile ukusebenzisa imikhiqizo yethu.”
“Mayelana nemibala ethrendayo, sibona ukwanda kokuthandwa kwemibala ewumhlaba enemibala empunga,” kusho uSue Kim, umqondisi wezokukhangisa ngemibala, iMinwax. "Lo mkhuba ucindezela imibala yepulangwe ukuze ikhanye futhi iqinisekise ukubukeka kwemvelo kokhuni. Ngenxa yalokhu, abathengi baphendukela emikhiqizweni efana ne-Minwax Wood Finish Natural, ebonisa imfudumalo esobala ekhipha ukhuni lwemvelo.
"Okumpunga okukhanyayo ezitezi eziphansi zokhuni kuhambisana kahle kakhulu nethoni yenhlabathi yezindawo zokuhlala. Hlanganisa okumpunga okunemibala eminingi efenisha noma amakhabethe ukuze ulethe ukubukeka okujabulisayo nge-Minwax Water Base Stain ku-Solid Navy, i-Solid Simply White, kanye Nombala Wonyaka Wango-2024 we-Bay Blue," kwengeza uKim. Ukwengeza, isidingo samabala okhuni asekelwe emanzini, njengeMinwax's Wood Finish Water-Based Semi Transparent kanye neSolid Color Wood Stain, siyakhula ngenxa yesikhathi sazo sokoma esingcono, ukusebenziseka kalula, kanye nephunga elinciphile.
“Sisaqhubeka nokubona inkambiso ‘yendawo evulekile’ ikhula iphumela ngaphandle, okuhlanganisa i-TV, ukuzijabulisa, ukupheka – ama-grill, ohhavini be-pizza, njll.,” kusho u-Henderson. “Ngalokhu, siphinde sibone ukuthambekela kwabanikazi bezindlu abafuna imibala yabo yangaphakathi nezindawo ukuze zifane nezindawo zabo zangaphandle.Ngokombono wokusebenza komkhiqizo, abathengi babeka phambili ukusebenziseka kalula nokunakekelwa ukuze bagcine izindawo zabo zizinhle.
“Ukwanda kokuthandwa kwemibala efudumele kungenye inkambiso esiye sayibona ekunakekelweni kwezinkuni,” kunezela uHenderson. "Lesi kube ngesinye sezizathu esenze sengeze i-Chestnut Brown njengenye yezinketho zemibala esezilungile ku-Woodluxe Translucent opacity yethu."
