Abstract
This 9-month focused study evaluates antimicrobial coating performance in 30 landed properties across 3 premium residential districts in Singapore. The research addresses the unique challenges of larger residential spaces with varied ventilation patterns, including naturally ventilated areas, air-conditioned zones, and semi-outdoor spaces common to bungalows, semi-detached, and terrace homes.
Results demonstrate 96% mould prevention effectiveness and 99.2% bacterial reduction across all property types.
