How to Prevent Mould on Furniture in Singapore

Keeping Mould Off Your Furniture

Mould on furniture is one of the most common complaints we hear at Mega Home Furnishing, and almost all of it is preventable once you understand what actually causes it here.

Singapore's Climate Impact on Furniture

Temperatures of 25 to 35°C and 80% humidity year round create conditions mould thrives in. Moisture, warmth and sunlight all speed up wear, and the right maintenance routine makes a real difference to how long furniture lasts.

Care Practices Worth Building Into a Routine

• Control humidity: aircon or a dehumidifier helps, aim to keep indoor humidity below 60%.
• Block direct sunlight: curtains or blinds help, especially in west facing units that get harsh afternoon sun.
• Clean regularly: dust combined with moisture is exactly what mould needs. A weekly wipe down goes a long way.
• Keep the airflow going: leave a gap between furniture and walls so damp air does not sit trapped.
