Suppresses mold growth
AGX BioGuard ZERO MOLD BOARD

Structure that suppresses recurrence
Other anti-mold measures cannot prevent recurrence

AGX BioGuard
ZERO MOLD BOARD

Why does it suppress mold recurrence?

The main cause of mold is “condensation.” An aluminum-coated layer that completely blocks moisture intrusion, gypsum board that prevents heat insulation and condensation, and hollow special beads with low heat capacity characteristics to eliminate temperature gradients, combined with the Japanese-developed special paint ‘Kabin Coat-T’ that kills attached mold spores — a three-layer structural design that prevents condensation itself and ‘creates an environment that greatly suppresses mold recurrence.’

Not “killing” mold,
but eliminating the conditions for its growth

ASTM Rating 10 No Mold

Test Results
Eliminating the mold growth environment itself
through condensation suppression structure + antibacterial technology
Achieved the highest rating
(Rating 10) in ASTM testing

Growth inhibition for 1 mold species (56-day test)
= approximately 10 years in real-world environment

Enlarged image: Mold on fibers

Deep within fibers that are difficult to notice visually, mold spores continue to proliferate silently. Even in living spaces such as bedrooms, mold can develop from moisture and sebum stains, eventually dispersing into the air. By the time you notice, it has often already spread widely. That is why countermeasures at the invisible stage and reliable verification are important.

Ceiling board that
suppresses mold growth

Design for anti-mold and antibacterial purposes

・Structural design that prevents condensation and eliminates the conditions for mold growth
・Back surface aluminum coat blocks moisture intrusion and prevents internal generation
・Hollow beads are uniformly dispersed inside the material
※ Designated construction method is a prerequisite.
The anti-mold performance of this product is based on test results under our company’s test conditions, and the effect may vary depending on the usage environment (temperature, humidity, construction conditions, etc.). It does not guarantee permanent anti-mold effect.

Empirical Data

Anti-mold performance demonstrated through 71-species mold test and ASTM test

・Growth inhibition confirmed for 71 mold species in domestic testing (56-day test)
・Achieved the highest rating (Rating 10) in the ASTM D3273 indoor paint anti-mold performance test (U.S. standard)
REASON03

Audit Compliance

・HACCP-level hygiene management that simplifies audit compliance.
・Compatible with both new construction and renovation, enabling adoption in existing facilities.

REASON04

Renovation Compatible

No peeling, just attach. Anti-mold renovation completed in 1 day

Construction is complete simply by overlaying the 6.5mm thin board on top of the existing ceiling.
Demolition costs and industrial waste costs become zero, and the work can be completed in as little as one day.
Compatible with stores in operation and occupied residences.

Key construction points
・ Zero demolition and disposal costs: Gypsum board disposal fees are expensive as industrial waste. By not removing the existing board, disposal costs are completely eliminated.
・ Construction completed in as little as 1 day: Significantly shortens the construction period as no demolition process is required.
・ Less dust: Safe for construction at food factories and restaurants.
・ Thin, lightweight design (6.5mm): Dedicated specifications that minimize load on existing ceilings.
