With skill and a rich imagination, interesting and useful things can be made from any available materials, including plastic pipes.

Plastic pipes different diameters sold in any hardware store quite affordable prices. They are used in the installation of water supply, sewerage, heating, irrigation systems, and after construction or repair, unnecessary trimmings often clog the site, while they can serve as an excellent material for creative crafts.

Don't rush to take it to the landfill construction garbage- we will tell you what can be done from a plastic pipe to turn excess waste into beautiful and functional interior items.

What is good about a plastic pipe?

We will not talk about the direct purpose of the product, but about the convenience of using varieties of plastic pipes specifically as a material for crafts. Plastic pipes are light weight, strong and quite durable. They are dirt-resistant, do not collect dust and are easy to clean. Products made from plastic pipes are safe to use even by small children (they do not break, are not heavy, and do not emit toxins).

For creative works More often they use PVC pipes, which are quite rigid and are easily connected with special nozzles and “adapters”, allowing the creation of collapsible structures. Polypropylene pipes can also be used, but you will need a special one to connect them. welding machine or compression fittings, and the finished products can no longer be disassembled.

Methods for connecting pipes in structures

Plastic pipes can be used to make not only convenient household items, but also pieces of furniture. So that such homemade product served for a long time and was reliable in operation, it is necessary to take care correct connection individual segments. Because about the poly connection propylene pipes It has already been said that we will consider joining only PVC pipes.

PVC plastic pipes can be connected in the following ways:

• into a socket with a rubber seal;
• using an adhesive composition;
• bolts, drilling holes.

The first connection method is characterized by simplicity, but lack of rigidity. Before connecting, it is recommended to clean the internal and external surfaces of the pipes at the junction from dust particles and treat the inserted part of the pipe with silicone grease. First, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops, after which it is carefully pulled back by 0.7 - 1 cm. Structures assembled in this way can later be dismantled, which is convenient for seasonal products.

The second method of assembling pipes is characterized by reliable fixation and greater labor intensity. Work on connecting parts begins with sanding the mating surfaces of the socket and pipe for better adhesion. Then they must be degreased with methylene chloride. Adhesive composition applied along the entire length of the prepared outer surface pipes and 2/3 of the length inner surface bell Finally, the pipe is inserted into the socket until it stops and turned a quarter turn. For gluing, you need to press the parts for 1 minute. For good fixation, all operations to connect two segments must be carried out quickly enough. The connected elements are left for several hours until the adhesive composition has completely dried.

The third method is more labor-intensive, as it requires marking and preparing holes, but allows you to obtain collapsible structures with a reliable connection.

For corner joints and connecting several sections at once in one unit, it is convenient to use a variety of fittings. Plastic pipe structures can be of any complexity using numerous tees and fittings. Let's consider useful homemade products in order of increasing difficulty of execution.

Original and functional little things for interior decoration

Our review of interesting ideas opens with the simplest products made from plastic pipes, which even novice DIYers can make. In addition, such crafts will require a minimal amount of material, and in some cases even the shortest scraps can be used.

From scraps of large and medium diameter pipes you can make a convenient and practical organizer for your office or workshop.

There are two possible execution options here:

• fastening with self-tapping screws to a wall or table, for which one end of the segment is cut off at an angle - a stationary option;
• gluing segments together to form a stable figure - a portable option.

The pieces can be left white or gray, or they can be painted in your favorite color. This organizer is indispensable for schoolchildren and people involved in creativity and handicrafts. With it, everything will always be at hand, and there will be perfect order on the table.

Bookshelves are a special element of the interior. Their presence in a certain way characterizes the owner of the home. Corner shelf in high-tech style will not go unnoticed.

From numerous short scraps of different diameters you can make a patterned frame for a mirror or photograph. It is enough to glue the cut rings together according to a pre-prepared layout, which can be applied to a sheet of cardboard. It could be floral patterns or something abstract. The dimensions of the frame will depend on the amount of suitable material.

Trimmings large diameter can be used to create a convenient shoe shelf with numerous compartments. This design will not take up much space in the hallway and will ensure proper storage of shoes and quick retrieval. the right pair. The elements are connected using glue or self-tapping screws. To secure the shelf to the wall, you can use plywood sheet, to which the assembled shelf is first glued.

Some crafts made from PVC pipes will really appeal to lovers of fresh flowers. This reliable flower stand is easy to make and looks nice.

For production flower pots Small scraps of sewer pipes are well suited for replanting or breeding indoor pets. Showing your imagination, such pots can be decorated with colored paper, paint or bright stickers.

You can make a theater screen from polypropylene pipes. It is enough to collect 3 frames, connect them together and cover them with beautifully decorated curtains. Home theater develops Creative skills children and creates good conditions for an exciting pastime.

We update the interior economically: furniture made of plastic pipes

DIY crafts made from plastic pipes can occupy a key place in the interior. Craftsmen share many extraordinary solutions allowing significant savings family budget. Let's highlight the brightest of them.

The most common and sought-after piece of furniture is a chair. Using sections of plastic pipes and connecting elements, you can make high-quality chairs different types: children's, folding for hiking and fishing, chairs and even high chairs.

Having mastered the assembly technique a little, you can proceed to more complex designs. Neat two-tier baby crib made of polypropylene pipes - good alternative For country house or cottages, when buying a ready-made crib is too expensive. Moreover, when the kids grow up, the material can be used to make other useful crafts.

The glass coffee table with a base made of PVC pipes in the next photo can hardly be called an amateur homemade product, since it looks like a designer’s work.

Another one original idea- shelving for the hallway or living room. Having independently designed a rack with the right amount shelves of the required size, you don’t have to waste time shopping in search of something suitable.

Useful crafts for a country house and cottage

Unused and surplus building materials will definitely be used for summer cottage. Crafts made from plastic pipes for the dacha will make it much easier gardening work, will make your vacation more comfortable and help you avoid large material costs. At the same time, the designs look neat and stylish.

Small pieces and a few tees can make a nice clothes and towel rack. It is easy to clean and does not corrode.

Relaxing by the pool or in the shade of the garden is impossible to imagine without a sun lounger. The photo shows a chaise lounge made entirely of plastic pipes, but it can also be combined with dense material.

Carport is another one useful application PVC pipes. It will protect your vehicle not only from rain, but also from the scorching summer sun.

Often used for garden decoration garden arch, which can also be made of plastic pipes. A new element appears in its design - bent arches. You can bend pipes for an arched vault by heating gas burner or boiling water. You can also put the pipe on a metal rod and, sticking one end into the soil, bend it in an arc. This method requires some physical effort.

Simple and light gazebo will decorate the garden and protect from the sun and light rain. For the presented option, it is enough to attach waterproof raincoat fabric to the pipes and bend them on the reinforcing bars. To make the structure reliable, you need to ensure that the rods are well fixed in the soil.

The range of applications for plastic pipes is truly enormous and is limited only by your imagination and needs. You need a small woodshed, a gate, a cart or a fishing rod stand - take the required amount of pipe and bring your idea to life.

It is easy to make a convenient chicken feeder from sewer pipes. It makes it very convenient to add grain without entering the pen. Chickens cannot rake grain in such feeders, which saves feed.

A small greenhouse at your summer cottage can also be made from plastic pipes. The simplest option: make a rectangular frame and cover it with film or agrofibre.

A more serious structure - a seasonal greenhouse - will require more time and material. It is better to connect elements with bolts, so that it is possible to disassemble the structure into pieces. winter period. The optimal shape of the greenhouse is arched. To create it, the ends of the pipes are placed on half-meter metal rods driven into the sides of the future greenhouse every meter. The size of the greenhouse depends on the planned use. The greenhouse can be installed on a foundation or on the ground. Film, polycarbonate or agrofibre can be used as a covering material.

Plastic sewer pipes can also become a container for growing flowers, herbs and vegetables. Very often they are used to create vertical vegetable gardens.

To fence the area, you can use a low fence made of plastic pipes, which is durable and minimum requirements in care (it does not need to be painted annually).

The use of plastic pipes is not limited to the ideas presented. This material is so versatile and easy to assemble (it is easy to cut, bend, has a variety of connecting parts) that it is simply impossible to ignore it in your home workshop.

After the construction of a water supply or sewerage system, repair work they often stay in the house or dacha Consumables – metallic profile, polypropylene pipes, fittings. Careless owners throw away excess material, and craftsmen find their own use for each element. For example, they independently develop designs and manufacture durable and beautiful furniture from pvc pipes with your own hands. Tables, chairs, shelves and organizers serve for years, delighting with impeccable functionality and stylish appearance.

In summer, comfortable chairs for children can be used in the country house or playground

DIY children's chair made of PVC pipes

Child chair from scraps of PVC pipes: A – seat frame and backrest, B – legs, C – stands for armrests, D – stands for backrest

Products made from polypropylene are safe, which is why they are used to make playpens, cribs, fences and furniture. One of the options is a comfortable, light and beautiful chair, assembled from modules (self-cut sections and connecting elements). The size of the chair, which is assembled according to the principle of a designer, depends on the size of the fragments. As an example, let's take the instructions for assembling a chair for a 4-5 year old child.

The material you will need is about 3 meters of plastic pipe, 6 T-shaped connecting elements, 8 corner elements, and a piece of durable bright textile. Tools – fine-toothed saw, PVC glue, sewing machine.

Operating procedure:

• cut the pipe into fragments - 7 pcs. 33 cm each (A), 4 pcs. 20 cm each (B), 4 pcs. 13 cm each (C), 2 pcs. 18 cm each (D);
• we assemble the back, then the seat, using connectors, we check the chair for stability;
• we sew a rectangle according to the dimensions of the crossbars, bending the fabric along the edges to form holes for the modules;
• we stretch a piece of fabric over the crossbars so that it sag a little;
• we disassemble the chair frame and reassemble it, but using glue at the joints.

After practicing assembling a chair, try to make a table, tent or cozy house for kids.

Office desk on a plastic frame

The assortment of office tables is large: in the store you can purchase any model - from a simple tabletop with legs to complex design with shelves and cabinets. But we will not monitor the nearest markets and spend money on a ready-made table, but will make a durable and practical furniture from polypropylene pipes with your own hands.

A large and comfortable table is suitable for lessons, handicrafts, and computer studies.

Video: Laptop stands

Materials and tools

Our goal is to build a strong and stylish table with tabletop dimensions 915x2030 mm. To make a smaller model, it is necessary to adjust the dimensions of both the top and the frame. To make the table light, despite its large dimensions, it is better to take a hollow tabletop ( door leaf) and polypropylene blanks. T-shaped and cross fittings serve as connectors; plugs will also be needed. Make sure that the diameter of the clamps matches the diameter of the crossbars.

One of good options– small kitchen or country table with PVC pipe legs

To make one table you need 12 meters of plastic pipe, cut into pieces:

• 5 pieces of 7.5 cm;
• 4 pieces of 50 cm;
• 10 pieces of 30 cm;
• 4 pieces 75 cm each.

PVC products are sold in construction supermarkets and plumbing stores. In addition to the crossbars for the frame, the following parts are needed:

• 5 flat top end caps;
• 5 caps for cups for table legs;
• 2 crossover (X-shaped) fittings;
• 4 T-fittings;
• 4 four way fittings.

The finished countertop is the canvas for the door, but there are other options. You can order a plastic or glass top, and also create a flat surface required sizes from boards. For assembly you will need fastening materials (screws, self-tapping screws, screws and special PVC glue).

When using connectors, a welding machine is not required. Required Tools:

• electric saw or jigsaw;
• fine-toothed hacksaw;
• sharp knife for plastic;
• screwdriver

Prepare all materials and tools in advance, then the assembly work will take less time.

Frame assembly

It is recommended to carry out the first assembly “dry”, that is, without using glue. First, we assemble one by one the sides of the frame on which the tabletop will rest, then the back part connecting the first two. For additional stability and strength, we attach a third leg in the center of the back. We are following parallel arrangement elements.

When all three sides are assembled, we connect them into a single structure. The result should be a frame standing on five legs. After making sure that all the elements are positioned correctly and the frame is level, we disassemble the structure and reassemble it again using glue, special cement or small self-tapping screws.

Tabletop installation

Place the finished tabletop on the floor front side down. We install the frame on top so that the flat plugs fit tightly to the surface. We mark the locations of the plugs and remove the frame. We screw the screws into the designated points and secure the plugs. We turn the structure over, put it on its legs - office table ready.

DIY furniture made from plastic pipes looks more natural if wooden table top varnish and paint the legs in a shade that matches the interior.

Metal shelving for the garden

A pantry, utility room, boiler room, basement and even are suitable for installing a metal rack. Walk-in closet

Let's try to do without welding and assemble a rack from a galvanized metal profile of a small cross-section, which is more convenient to process. We will need a tape measure for marking, a hacksaw for metal and a screwdriver, instead of which you can use an ordinary screwdriver.

On the shelves of the rack it is convenient to place jars with homemade preparations: compotes, pickles, jams and salads

To simplify the work, we make an exact sketch to which we “transfer” the installation location. Let's draw simple diagram with dimensions indicated. Then we calculate how much material – thin profile – is required. If the appearance of the rack is important, we buy a chrome-plated pipe (approximately 22 mm in diameter). For shelves, plywood (10-15 mm thick) is suitable, which we fix with self-tapping screws (8-13 mm).

Use a hacksaw to cut the pipe into fragments. One of the kit options: 4 vertical posts, 8 rear and front crossbars, 8 side crossbars.

We assemble four frames for the shelves, securing the corners with self-tapping screws or additional corner fasteners. Then we fix the frames on vertical racks- legs of the rack. back part finished design For stability, we screw it to the wall using brackets. We paint the shelving frame (chrome plated is not needed), lay out the shelves, and secure them with self-tapping screws. Convenient for storing things and workpieces, hand-made furniture from profile pipe ready.

Stylish interior elements made from PVC modules

It's hard to imagine that the amazing golden vases are made from regular pvc pipes

Very small fragments will be useful for decorating the interior and creating objects useful in everyday life. plastic products. Using holes in the pieces, you can make several types of organizers - for shoes, stationery, toys, cleaning products. 5-15 wide elements, glued together and fixed to the wall, turn into a convenient shelf for bottles. Decorated PVC pipe with a longitudinal cut, hung above the bar counter - a great place for storage empty glasses.

Convenient shoe organizers made from large-diameter plastic pipes

To decorate your interior, you don’t need to buy expensive decor. It is enough to cut a thick plastic pipe into pieces of various lengths, paint the resulting elements in different colors, decorate them with sparkles, shells, pieces of colored glass, and you will get a magnificent set of flower pots. Plastic rings are an excellent material for creating festive compositions in the form of wall panels. Christmas tree decorations, hearts, flowers or Easter figures are placed in its holes, depending on the festive occasion.

Stylish shelves for towels, napkins and household accessories

An original and convenient organizer for stationery

As you can see, ordinary building pipes in skillful hands become comfortable furniture, and useful home equipment, and exquisite decor.

Video: Ideas for a house made of PVC pipes

In this publication, the idea is to make a table that differs in design from standard products; it is made of metal water pipes.

In this video, the master showed how he made the table. I used regular steel pipes.
Let's start in order. 4 adapter couplings. Tees. Flanges. I had to buy a vice to hold the pipe in and cut the threads. To avoid making holes in the table, clamps were used. Before cutting, I lubricated the beginning of the pipe with a small piece of lard to make carving easier. Unfortunately, the plumber's wrench was not able to make the thread. So I had to buy a ratchet. It is much easier to screw threads with it than with a plumbing tool. The result was a good carving.
I had to cut off part of the pipe. Before doing this, I dripped a little liquid soap.

This makes sawing much easier.

During the work, an emergency occurred - the vice cracked. I wanted to fix the pipe, I started tightening it... Even for one day

didn't work, had to be replaced under warranty. I had to go to a friend and have him do the carving.

I decided to use two pine wooden panels as a tabletop. I wiped them off from dust. I glued the two parts together with instant glue. To make the glue adhere better, I put all kinds of weights on it. The next day I removed the loads. I was pleasantly surprised that the glue perfectly connected the two surfaces. It was necessary to measure the distance from the table legs. I fixed the legs with self-tapping screws. I used soap to tighten the screws. Not bad idea! The master did the same

You can create many interesting things from plastic pipes. Of course, first of all, they are used for their intended purpose, that is, for assembling pipelines, water supply systems and even heating.

However, the use of plastic, polypropylene or PVC pipes is not limited to this. From them, for example, you can create unique designer items, furniture, stands and even entire structures.

In this article we will tell you why and how this is done.

Contents of the article

Why plastic?

By plastic, we of course mean all types of materials that are used in the production of pipes.

It will not be possible to cut a sample of a profile pipe with scissors, or rather, not every model will do. If you don't guess right, you'll just ruin the cut. It’s not a big deal, of course, but it’s still a waste of time that can be avoided. For a profile pipe, buy a plastic cutter or the appropriate type of universal scissors.

The sections are assembled with fittings, most often for diffusion welding. They are very easy to work with, they cool quickly, are unpretentious and very cheap.

Another variant - chemical compositions or . This is also a good method, especially convenient if you don’t have one.

Only there is a nuance: the resulting connections will become monolithic, that is, impossible to disassemble. This is not a problem, but still. For greater mobility and the possibility of subsequent modifications, use threaded ones.

Or you can use combined schemes. For example, a frame for a table is made by welding, and the legs are attached to threaded fittings. Then, if necessary, the legs can be easily removed. This means that the table can be easily modified, transported and changed the way you want.

Plastic pipe chair

Very easy to assemble. Its design is simplest. It consists of legs, a basic supporting frame, a stand on which they actually sit, as well as a backrest. Although the latter option is optional.

Stages of work:

1. Assembling the chair legs.
2. Assembling the stand frame.
3. As a stand we take a sheet of plywood of a suitable size.
4. We fasten the plywood to the frame with self-tapping screws.
5. We screw or weld the chair legs.
6. We are finalizing the design.

That's all - the chair is ready. All fastenings are held on fittings. we leave it to you. Do you want collapsible or partially collapsible design– buy threaded models. If this is not critical, use welding. For DIY work, welding is easier and the connections are more reliable.

We fasten the plywood with ordinary self-tapping screws. Nothing extraordinary. They attach it to it soft seat from foam rubber.

An example of assembling a chair from polypropylene pipes (video)

Assembling the stand

It's even easier with stands. There are a huge number of variations. From stands made from a single pipe to strong shelves with a bunch of sections.

The simplest stand is made from a single frame onto which special holders are mounted. They are then attached to the wall. If you want a mobile stand, then legs are attached to it.

It can also be easily modified into a clothes dryer. You can even apply a design approach - assemble a dryer with a beveled shape in the form English letter"Z".

The foundation is made in it. A vertical part of the frame is attached to them, with longitudinal pipes on which the laundry is hung. This part can be held at any angle. From 30 to 60 degrees. Either option is completely viable.

Don't forget that you can decorate it further. The simplest way– coloring. Plastic is not in the best possible way interacts with paints, but acrylic paints stick well to it.

You can make furniture from pipes with your own hands from leftover materials that are used during installation and repair work on the arrangement of various pipelines. For example, from this unusual material make shelves, tables, chairs, as well as organizers.

They are distinguished by their original appearance and can last for several decades without losing it.

Despite the fact that some craftsmen make furniture from metal pipes do it yourself, it’s still better to use plastic for this. In this case, polyvinyl chloride or PVC is usually used for such crafts as the most cheap look plastic. Sewer pipes are mainly made from it because, having all the advantages of polymers, it is quite inexpensive.

Plastic pipes are resistant to rot and rust

If we mention the advantages of plastic products that allow you to make furniture from propylene pipes with your own hands, then these include:

• high strength;
• durability;
• resistance to rot and rust;
• ease of installation.

However, it is always worth remembering that this type pipes are afraid of exposure to high temperatures, under the influence of which the plastic is deformed. In this regard, in the case when you are going to assemble furniture from water pipes with your own hands and install it in the room where it will be maintained heat, for example, in a bathhouse, you should use polypropylene products for this, and not polyvinyl chloride.

Service life of polypropylene pipes

Polypropylene can withstand temperatures up to +60°C and is much stronger than polyvinyl chloride, but products made from it are more expensive.

PVC pipe bone lamp

Important! The popularity of using plastic pipes in design is explained by the ease of their installation.

The fact is that any product can be assembled from them quite easily using fittings and gluing. At the same time, you can not only make furniture from a profile pipe with your own hands, but also make many other products from them:

• stands;
• decorative elements;
• portable structures;
• small architectural forms.

For example, in the garden you can make original gazebos or benches from plastic pipes. By the way, if necessary, they can be disassembled quite easily. It is also worth noting that some owners personal plots quite functional buildings are erected from pipes, for example, greenhouses.

Scheme of a gazebo made of PVC pipes

In any case, in order to make from plastic pipes various products, it is enough to know the basic principles of their installation and have a healthy imagination. There is no need to meet any other requirements for this. Therefore, collect the remains of plastic pipes, and also study how you can make furniture from a profile pipe with your own hands in the photo. Take one like this educational material can be found on the Internet on specialized websites dedicated to interior design.

Basics of working with plastic pipes

In order to be able to make furniture from pipes with your own hands, you need to understand the general algorithm for working with plastic.

Types of plastic pipe connections

So, working with them usually includes the following operations:

• selection of installation diagram and drawing up a sketch of the product;
• pipe cutting the right size in required quantities;
• assembly of the frame and individual elements using fittings, glue or soldering;
• checking the resulting product for strength.

You can develop an assembly diagram for a particular type of furniture yourself or take it from specialized websites. For example, you can use any classic furniture. In this case, of course, it is necessary to make allowances for the peculiarities technical characteristics plastic pipes.

Design metal-plastic pipe

If we talk about small furniture that will not be used in conditions elevated temperature, then there is not much difference in choosing the type of plastic. The only thing worth paying attention to is the price. The fact is that polyvinyl chloride is much cheaper than polypropylene, so it is quite suitable for such crafts.

You should make furniture from polypropylene pipes with your own hands when increased strength of the product is required. The fact is that such products have walls several tens of mm thick, which allows them to withstand very serious mechanical loads. In the same case, when you need to assemble large furniture, it is recommended to combine pipes made of polypropylene with PVC pipes. For this purpose, PVC products are used to install elements of lightly loaded areas, and polypropylene is used to create a supporting frame.

If you buy pipes, do not purchase products with reinforcement. The fact is that they cost much more than simple ones, but there is no particular benefit from them. In order to distinguish simple pipes from reinforced ones, it is necessary to study their surface. If there is a red, blue or green stripe on it, then these are reinforced pipes and there is no need to buy them.

Important! To cut the prepared pipes into desired length, you will need to use a pipe cutter or special scissors.

In order to make furniture from pipes with your own hands, you will also need fittings for diffuse welding. In addition, they can be connected special glue for plastic. This method very relevant in the case when you do not have a special welding machine at home. Also in this case, you can use threaded fittings.

Making a chair from plastic pipes

In order to learn how to assemble furniture from pipes with your own hands, you need to start with fairly simple products. For example, a novice furniture maker can make an ordinary chair. This very simple design consists of a basic frame, legs, a back, and a stand to sit on. In this case, the backrest can be installed here if desired.

This simple design consists of a base frame, legs, a backrest, and a stand on which to sit.

The immediate stages of work on this product are as follows:

• assembly of legs;
• frame installation;
• installation with self-tapping screws to the frame of a stand made of a sheet of plywood;
• welding chair legs;
• testing the structure for strength.

You can make furniture from PVC pipes yourself using this method using fittings. In this case, you can disassemble the structures, if necessary. If you don’t need to do this, use welding. By the way, you can install a seat made of foam rubber on a stand screwed to the frame.

A seat made of foam rubber can be installed on a stand screwed to the frame.

In addition to the beginner's chair home handyman You can gain experience in making plastic products by creating stands and shelves from pipes. There are a huge number of options. For example, the simplest design is made on the basis of a single frame on which special holders are mounted. With their help, a shelf or stand can be attached to the wall.

The simplest design is manufactured on the basis of a single frame on which special holders are mounted

By the way, many people forget that plastic can be further decorated. Yes, it paints quite well acrylic paints. Another option for decorating products made from it is the use of plastic pipes different color. Unfortunately, the range of colors here is small: white, black, gray and brown, but with their help you can create a product that is quite interesting from a color point of view.

However, experienced designers can use such a tool to decorate almost any room in a very unusual way. For example, you can make several original organizers for cleaning products, shoes or toys. Here it is enough to simply glue several tubes together.

You can also make ordinary decorations from plastic, which can combine the functions of the same organizer. For example, mirrors are made using scraps of plastic pipes, wooden furniture walls of rooms. As a result, a space that is unusual in terms of design and at the same time functional is created.

Features of manufacturing furniture for children's rooms

If you decide to seriously make furniture from plastic pipes with your own hands for use in everyday life, you must remember that for a children's room such products must be made taking into account special requirements. The fact is that safety is of great importance to children. In this regard, it is better not to use plastic pipes in the children's room, which can emit harmful substances. In addition, furniture made from it should not have sharp corners.
