What is an anti-mould diffuser?
The AirGuard+ No-Mould Diffuser is a passive, electricity-free antimicrobial gel that continuously neutralises airborne mould spores, bacteria, and microbes in enclosed spaces. Designed specifically for Singapore's high-humidity climate, it treats the air inside wardrobes, cabinets, and storage rooms for 30 to 60 days without any maintenance.
How bad is mould in Singapore wardrobes?
Singapore's average relative humidity exceeds 80% year-round, reaching 84–90% during the monsoon months (National Environment Agency, Singapore). At these humidity levels and temperatures between 25–30°C, mould spores can germinate on organic surfaces such as leather within 24–48 hours, with visible growth appearing in as little as 2–4 weeks on unprotected stored items.

How to use anti-mould diffuser?
Where to put anti-mould diffuser?
Dehumidifiers reduce ambient moisture but cannot kill mould spores already present in the air. Silica gel packets absorb moisture but have no antimicrobial action and are too small to treat a full wardrobe environment. AirGuard+ works differently: its slow-release antimicrobial technology actively neutralises spores in the air before they can land and colonise surfaces, without requiring electricity or maintenance.
To use AirGuard+ No-Mould Diffuser:
(1) Peel off the protective foil seal.
(2) Replace the perforated lid to allow controlled diffusion.
(3) Place the jar in your wardrobe, cabinet, or storage area, ideally towards the back corner.
(4) Replace when the gel volume visibly reduces — typically after 30 to 60 days depending on space size and humidity.
AirGuard+ is suitable for any enclosed or semi-enclosed space: wardrobes, shoe cabinets, storage boxes, seasonal clothing containers, bathroom cabinets, and bedrooms with air-conditioning units. Each jar covers a space up to 1.5m × 1.0m × 0.6m. For large walk-in wardrobes, use 2–3 jars positioned at different ends for full coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions About Anti-Mould Diffuser
Q: How is the AirGuard+ diffuser different from anti-mould patches?
A: Anti-mould patches from Anaya go inside individual bags and shoes for direct item-level protection. AirGuard+ treats the surrounding air in your entire wardrobe or cabinet space. For maximum protection, Anaya recommends using both together: AirGuard+ for the storage environment and patches inside individual high-value items.
Q: Is the AirGuard+ diffuser safe for children and pets?
A: Yes. The antimicrobial gel remains contained within the jar during normal use. AirGuard+ is non-toxic, child-safe, and pet-friendly. Store the jar out of direct reach of young children as you would any household product.
Q: Does AirGuard+ require electricity?
A: No. AirGuard+ is entirely passive — it requires no electricity, batteries, or maintenance. The slow-release gel works continuously once the seal is removed and the perforated lid is placed on the jar.
Q: How do I know when to replace the AirGuard+ diffuser?
A: The gel volume in the jar visibly reduces as the product works. When the gel level has dropped significantly, it is time to replace the jar. Duration is typically 30–60 days depending on wardrobe size and ambient humidity.
Q: Will the AirGuard+ scent transfer to my leather bags or clothes?
A: No. Unlike camphor or mothballs, AirGuard+ has a minimal scent that does not transfer to clothing or leather. The three available scents (White Tea, Forest Pine, and Fresh Linen) are subtle and designed to dissipate at low ambient levels.
