Lapho uthenga ifenisha engayilimazi imvelo, okokuqala udinga ukunquma ngemibuzo eminingi:
- - Uyidinga malini le fenisha?
- - Mhlawumbe othile ovela kubangani bakho noma ezihlotsheni unefenisha elungile?
- - Ngeke ukhathale ngale fenisha, ingabe ingakusiza isikhathi eside?
- - Uma uthenga le fenisha, ingabe izolimaza noma ngubani?
- - Ingabe lo mkhiqizo ukhiqiza izinto ezinobuthi?
- - Ngabe ukufakwa kwale fenisha kuyasebenza kabusha?
- - Ngabe ukukhiqizwa kwale mikhiqizo kuphephile?
- - Ukuthuthwa kwefenisha kwakungayilimazi imvelo?
Izimpendulo zale mibuzo zizosizwa izitifiketi nemibhalo enikezwa abakhiqizi befenisha kumakhasimende ukuze abuyekezwe. Le nqubo ilandela imithetho eqinile nemingcele.
Zonke izigaba zobukhona bomkhiqizo ziyahlolwa:
- - ukukhiqizwa kwemikhiqizo;
- - ukusebenza kwayo;
- - kabusha.
Ibhizinisi ngalinye lihlolwa njalo eminyakeni emibili kuya kwemithathu, ikhwalithi yezimpahla nokulebula kwazo kwezemvelo kuyaqinisekiswa. Kunzima kakhulu ukuhlomisa indlu ngefenisha elungele imvelo.
Iqiniso ngukuthi imikhiqizo yanamuhla iqukethe i-nitrogen, i-formaldehyde, i-retardants yamalangabi nezinye izinto eziningi eziyingozi empilweni. Akunakwenzeka ukuthi abathengi bafunde ngezinqubo zokucubungula nemininingwane yokwenziwa kwefenisha, ngakho-ke izimpawu zokumaka ukuphela kwendawo yokukhomba ongathembela kuyo.
Ukufakwa ilebula kwe-Eco
Ifenisha evikela imvelo inamamaki akhethekile ekhwalithi aphesheya:
- - IDaisy - umkhiqizo osezingeni eliphakeme (abakhiqizi be-European Union);
- - I-Fair Trade wuhlobo lomkhiqizo oluhambisana namazinga we-ILO;
- -Blue Angel - imikhiqizo evela kubakhiqizi baseJalimane;
- - ISvanen - umkhiqizo waseScandinavia wemikhiqizo enobungani bemvelo;
- - I-Falcon - uphawu lwekhwalithi yaseSweden;
- - FSC - uphawu olufakazela ukukhiqizwa okungasaphazi kwemikhiqizo yezinkuni;
- - PEFC - isitifiketi esiqinisekisa ukusetshenziswa okunengqondo kwezinkuni;
- - I-Rainforest Alliance - imikhiqizo yamaphepha elungele imvelo;
- - I-ECO - imikhiqizo nezinsizakalo ezinobungani bemvelo.
Uma uthola uphawu olulodwa noma ngaphezulu ekuphakelweni komkhiqizo, kusho ukuthi umkhiqizo udlulise ukulawula okuqinile kwemvelo.
