​Indoor Air Quality

We often experience the pungent smell that couple with the watery eyes sensation in our newly renovated house, have we wonder what is the root cause of this or we have often taken this as a norm.
​

​Renovation works emits harmful chemical indoor, particularly from new building and furnishing products which continuously release pollutants that remain on the surfaces and linger in the air for a long period of time.

These pollutants cause poor indoor air quality which may lead to headaches, fatigue, respiratory irritation and reduce productivity.  Research studies also suggest that long term, high level exposure to some of these chemical pollutants
may increase the risk of cancer.
​
And formaldehyde is one of the commonly found volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that emitted from newly installed built-in furniture in a renovated house.

No​ matters how appealing or functional one built-in furniture could be.  It become completely inadequate, if it couldn't provide the basic requirement of safe to use.  Micalite laminated panel utilised not only quality raw materials, yet abide to low formaldehyde emission tested under ASTM D5116-17 standard and meet with the stringent requirements.

(TVOC emission rate after 72 hrs, spec < =
0.5mg/m2/hr)
(Formaldehyde emission rate after 72 hrs, spec 
< = 0.1mg/m2/hr)
​

This standards are recommended by local authorities as a safe baseline for indoor air quality requirements.

​EGGER Laminate Micro

The surface, first impression that capture every single attention.  The layer that will age with time, and we understand how important this can be.  Therefore we dress up our panel with EGGER laminates Micro imported from Europe.  The surface materials that not only promise visual aesthetic but also exceptional quality.

What is normally being offer in the market are of single side application of selected laminates, but the backing materials are normally in different materials to reduce cost.  Due to application of two different materials and of different thickness onto the core, this led to warpage issue on panel when comes to expansion and contraction due to temperature fluctuation.  To overcome such downsides, Micalite panel are laminated both sides with the same materials (EGGER laminate Micro) and thickness, which has proven to have reduce warpage significantly.
