Why Allergy Friendly Design Matters in Singapore
Singapore’s tropical climate—high humidity, dense urban living, and year-round pollen—creates a perfect storm for allergens. Over 40% of Singaporeans report allergy symptoms, with dust mites, mold, and formaldehyde emissions ranking as top triggers. At MRETTY, we engineer allergy friendly sanctuaries using medical-grade materials and intelligent design that combat allergens without compromising luxury.
The MRETTY 4-Step Allergy Proofing Process
Step 1: Holistic Space Audit & Airflow Mapping
Our designers conduct a comprehensive allergen assessment, identifying hotspots like moisture-prone corners or dust-trapping layouts. Using 3D airflow simulations, we optimize ventilation paths and propose hypoallergenic material zoning—ensuring every surface resists allergen accumulation.
Step 2: ENF+E0 Material Selection
All MRETTY systems use ENF-certified OSB boards—the world’s strictest formaldehyde standard (<0.025 mg/m³)—paired with E0-grade finishes (5-base/3-top coatings). These non-porous surfaces prevent mold growth and repel dust mites, critical for Singapore’s 85% humidity.
Step 3: Zero-Residue Precision Installation
Singapore-certified technicians deploy hospital-grade protocols:
- Aerospace aluminum honeycomb cores in doors/walls (40% lighter, 0% mold risk)
- Seamless concealed hinges eliminating dust traps
- Floor-membrane barriers isolating construction particles
- 25mm thickened panels with J-groove handles (no crevices for allergen buildup)
Step 4: Allergy-Proof Functionality Integration
Transform spaces with embedded health tech:
- HEPA-filtered storage walls in living hubs
- Mold-resistant quartz countertops with integrated ventilation
- Washable PET-gloss finishes for cabinets and shelves

Singapore-Tuned Allergy Defense Innovations
MRETTY’s designs solve local pain points:
- Humidity Warfare: 5-layer E0 coatings resist swelling and mold—even in wet kitchens.
- Space Efficiency: Aluminum cores enable slimmer, floor-to-ceiling storage (reducing dust surfaces by 60%).
- Child Safety: Rounded J-groove edges prevent injury; ENF boards eliminate formaldehyde exposure risks.
- Eco-Integrity: Every panel is FSC-certified, ensuring sustainable sourcing from rainforest-safe forests.
