Staying cool in Malaysia’s tropical heat is tough, but Ultifresh has a solution. Founded by Frank Yap and Gerald Eng in Singapore in 2018, Ultifresh creates sustainable, anti-microbial garments that eliminate 99.94% of bacteria. The result? Clothes that stay fresh longer, require less washing, and help conserve water — all without sacrificing comfort.



In this episode of Open For Business, we speak with Frank and Gerald about expanding Ultifresh from Singapore to Malaysia, the challenges of making sustainable fashion accessible, and how their innovative fabrics are changing the way we think about everyday wear.
