May is typically Singapore’s wettest month—and that means higher humidity, more mould risks, and bigger headaches for anyone trying to keep clothes fresh. Whether it’s musty wardrobes or shoes that smell damp, here’s how to keep your clothes protected through the monsoon.

1. Clothes Can Mould—Even If They’re Clean
Humidity seeps into fabric fibres. Even clothes you think are clean can start smelling musty or grow mould if not dried or stored properly.

2. Don’t Use Plastic Garment Bags
Plastic traps moisture and worsens mould growth. Opt for breathable cotton garment bags, especially for formalwear, uniforms, and gowns.

3. Rotate and Air Out Wardrobes
Open your wardrobe doors for 30 minutes a week and rotate clothes on hangers. Trapped humidity needs circulation to escape.

4. Professional Refresh for At-Risk Items
Items like wool, silk, leather, and even dry-clean-only synthetics benefit from a moisture extraction cycle at our facility. We deodorise, press, and return them ready for long-term wear.

Why It Matters:
Mould damages fabric irreversibly. Prevention is easier and more cost-effective than replacement.
