In Singapore’s pursuit of a zero-carbon future, sustainable smart home designs have transitioned from niche concepts to mainstream imperatives. At MRETTY, we redefine eco-conscious living by harmonizing advanced technology with FSC-certified materials, crafting homes that are as intelligent as they are sustainable. This article explores our innovative approach to sustainable design, supported by real-world applications and cutting-edge material science.
The Foundations of Sustainable Smart Design
Material Innovation with ENF-Certified OSB Panels
Singapore’s humid climate demands materials that resist warping and mold. Our ENF-certified OSB panels (formaldehyde ≤0.025mg/m³) utilize FSC-certified birch and pine from Southeast Asian plantations. Unlike traditional particleboards, these panels feature a cross-laminated structure that enhances stability, making them ideal for high-humidity environments like kitchens and bathrooms.
