Style: Futuristic & Biophilic Design

Area: Public Areas & VIP Lounges

Location: Changi

Singapore Changi Airport (World’s Best Airport)

Iconic Infrastructure

Rated as the “World’s Best Airport” for 12 times, Singapore Changi Airport is not just a transport hub but a global lifestyle destination. It features the world’s tallest indoor waterfall and expansive indoor gardens. The project demanded interior materials that could blend nature-inspired aesthetics with heavy-duty performance to withstand millions of annual travelers.

Surviving the Tropical Traffic

Transforming a high-traffic hub in a tropical climate presented unique challenges:

  • Extreme Durability: With over 68 million passengers annually, wall claddings face constant impact, luggage scratches, and wear.

  • Humidity Resistance: Singapore’s tropical climate creates moisture issues. Traditional wood rots and molds easily in such environments. * Strict Safety Codes: As a major public infrastructure, all materials must strictly meet Class B Fire Retardant standards.

Engineering Nature with WPC
Gooday/Melinco supplied our premium WPC Decor Panel Series to create dynamic, textured walls that mimic natural wood but offer superior resilience:
• Curved Design: We utilized 176 and 160 Fluted Panels to achieve the fluid, wave-like wall structures that align with the airport’s futuristic architecture.
• Material Performance: Our high-density WPC substrate (0.75/1) is 100% waterproof and highly resistant to scratches.
• Safety First: All installed panels passed rigorous fire safety tests, ensuring public safety without compromising on the “Garden City” aesthetic.

  • A Futuristic & Sustainable Landmark

    The installation created a stunning visual experience that complements the airport’s famous greenery. Melinco’s wall systems have proven to be low-maintenance, requiring only simple cleaning despite the heavy footfall.

    This project reinforces our position as a global supplier capable of meeting the world’s strictest public infrastructure standards.
