In today’s built environment, materials are no longer chosen for aesthetics alone. Every decision shapes health, wellbeing, and sustainability. That is why certifications from the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) matter with SNS — they provide clear benchmarks for healthier spaces and a greener future. We are proud to champion this movement, showing that surfaces can be both beautiful and deeply responsible.
Certified to Care
SGBC’s Singapore Green Building Product (SGBP) certification scheme’s 4-ticks Leader rating is the programme’s highest tier, reserved for products that are able to meet rigorous criteria on emissions, environmental impact, and responsible production. This ensures that SNS laminates undergo independent testing and verification so designers, builders, and homeowners can specify with confidence. For SNS, certification is not a badge, it is proof of a long-standing commitment to safer materials that support healthier indoor environments and responsible design outcomes.
Supporting Singapore’s Sustainability Goals
Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 sets targets for sustainable development, energy efficiency, and healthier living spaces. By aligning our laminates with the SGBP framework, SNS contributes directly to these national goals. Our certified products reduce indoor emissions and resource impact, empowering the design and construction community to meet BCA Green Mark standards while delivering better environments for families, workplaces, and learning spaces.
Care in Every Layer
Behind each SNS laminate is a philosophy of care. Our collections are engineered to go beyond surface beauty, integrating technologies that improve everyday living. HealthShield™ antimicrobial protection helps surfaces stay cleaner for longer. Our writable collection encourage creativity while remaining easy to maintain. We also offer magnetic options that transform walls into interactive, functional planes for homes, schools, and workplaces. The goal is simple: materials people touch every day should be safe, versatile, and future-ready.
Laminates with Added Innovation
While SGBP certification applies to our laminates, our pursuit of healthier building solutions extends across how materials are assembled and used. Innovations such as our Green+ approach — pairing formaldehyde-free laminates with thoughtfully selected substrates and water-based adhesives — reflect our drive to further reduce emissions during carpentry and installation. These solutions demonstrate that our care does not stop at the surface; it informs decisions from specification through to fabrication and everyday use.
Designed for People, Powered by Responsibility
We collaborate closely with designers, contractors, and educators to ensure our surfaces perform in real life: durable in high-traffic zones, easy to clean in family spaces, and uplifting in learning environments. By uniting design intent with responsible material science, SNS helps teams deliver interiors that feel good, function beautifully, and age gracefully.
Looking Ahead
As Singapore advances towards healthier and more sustainable living environments, SNS Laminates remains committed to continuous improvement. The SGBP framework guides our R&D, our manufacturing choices, and the features we bring to market — always with people and the planet in mind.
Always Safe, Always Beautiful — this is the promise SNS brings to every project. Together with SGBC, we are proving that materials can inspire confidence, nurture wellbeing, and support Singapore’s vision of a greener built environment.
