These test reports are required to meet regulatory compliance, which is in turn necessary for market approval. Compliance supports easy market entry and also increases the confidence of consumers in these products. Thus, testing for mold resistance is beneficial to manufacturers and businesses alike.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At Microbe Investigations Switzerland (MIS), we focus on delivering customized and analytical solutions aimed at improving the quality of antifungal coating materials.
