Solid Yet Stylish Security

ntroducing a range of high-security

steel mesh fencing that provides protection for a variety of applications for both
private homes and public facilities. B&I
Security Fencing, made from high-strength
and cold-rolled wires that are welded together through electrical resistance, is
strong and durable enough to be used in
public institutions like schools, universities
and hospitals; and security areas such as
police quarters, army camps and military
sites.
It is also ideal for private facilities such
as factories, warehouses and construction sites; and other common locations
such as golf courses, gated communities,
playgrounds and stadiums.
The fencing products come in a wide
range of coloured coatings to suit different
designs and aesthetics.
They are versatile and can be installed
within a combination of a brick wall base
and concrete columns. These fences are
made even more durable as a result of
the fence panels undergoing hot-dipped
galvanising to prevent corrosion upon
exposure to natural elements. The fencing
panel may be cut to size and is cost-saving
as you will only need to change the faulty
panel in the event of serious damage.

BENEFITS

Highly durable
Cost-effective
Low maintenance
Versatile
Wide usage
Enhanced rigidity
Aesthetically appealing

The innovation is the result of joint
research efforts between SIRIM Malaysias leading certification, research and
standards agency; Nuclear Malaysia, the
Science University of Malaysia (USM); the
National University of Malaysia (UKM)
and the International Islamic University
of Malaysia (UIA).
Composed of calcium salt hydroxyapatite, it is used for the repair of bony defects.
This product has been marketed in
Malaysia since 2007 and has received good
response by both the public and private
hospitals in Malaysia.
GranuMaS Synthetic Bone Graft is
intended for use as a bone void filler or
bone void substitute for bony voids or gaps
that are not intrinsic to the stability of the
bony structure.
When bone grafts are placed in direct
contact with a viable host bone, a new
bone grows in apposition to the surface of
the implant, filling pores with new bone
during the healing process. Synthetic bone
graft is then incorporated into the newly
formed bone.

LEGA Brings Breath of Relief

novel product with a noble intent,

LEGA was developed by a determined
father as a simple device to treat serious
respiratory and breathing problems of
his young son. A hand-held, portable, mechanical
electronic controlled device, LEGA brings relief
by creating effective resonance waves that travel
through the patients chest wall and help loosen
any existing phlegm.
This action mimics the chest percussion
performed by professional physiotherapists to
create vibrations in the chest that help loosen
excess phlegm in the lungs, so that the patients
can cough it out and clear their airways. LEGA is
suitable for those who suffer from lung diseases
such as chronic pulmonary lung disease (COPD),
bronchitis, pneumonia, cystic fibrosis and general
lung diseases.
LEGA comes with two cups with padded covers
that are made of protein-free silicone material.
These two cups are disposable after a single patient
use if so desired. A thin cover made of protein-free
material is used to cover its front surface, where it
comes in contact with the patients body or skin, to
prevent cross contamination. This thin protector is
also meant for a single patient use only.
A12V DC motor is used to control the movement
of these two cups that moves vertically for generating resonance waves that help break down and
loosen the thick phlegm and loosen tight muscle or
muscle contraction when it touches human body.
LEGA starts with a low speed of 300 RPM (auto or
manual speed control) .The speed ranges from 300
to 800 RPM (frequency from 10 to 27 Hertz).

HIGHLIGHTS

Portable
Easy to use
Battery operated
Quick relief
Clinically proven effective
Lightweight

Multipurpose
Concentrated Detergent

ioSinar is a multipurpose concentrated detergent powder that is

easy to use and needs no vigorous
scrubbing on surfaces such as table
tops and flooring to remove stubborn stains.
With minimal fuss, BioSinar is most effective in laundry applications.
It is able to clean, soften and brighten
clothes with an estimated 33% savings on
water consumption.
BioSinars low suds formulation allows
clothes to be rinsed with just one cycle - thus
providing huge savings for users. With
BioSinar, gone are the days when washing is
a chore. In fact, clothes remain soft without
the need to use softeners, hence ironing
becomes smoother. Unlike most detergents,
BioSinar also responses naturally to the
human body even sufferers of eczema can
use the product with no side effects.

FEATURES

Surfactants removes general dirt such

as collar dirt and light stains without the
need to scrub
Enzymes removes tough stains such as
blood, curry, engine oil and permanent
marker ink
Sequestering agents ensures optimal
washing performance in hard water (i.e.
water with high mineral content which
normally reduces detergent efficacy)
Oxygen bleach contrary to normal

bleach, oxygen bleach facilitates release

of high amounts of oxygen to fight and
clean stains. It is also a lot more user
friendly (i.e. gentler on products and
human skin)
Non-redeposition agents binds the
stain together and it prevents from
transferring onto a different spot on the
washed surface
These ingredients when combined allow consumers to do away with many
other laundry aids such as softeners, stain
removers, bleach and ironing aid, which
when combined adds almost RM15-25 in
value or the equivalent of 100%-150% above
BioSinars recommended retail price.
Even laundry operators have reported
significant increase in productivity coupled
with a 40% decrease in operating costs with
BioSinar compared to other detergents.

Eco-Friendly Doors to
Appease Mother Nature

ith the noble vision of

protecting and preserving
the environment, Palm
Wood Technology turned
to a highly sustainable resource in their
quest to produce doors that are able to
reduce environmental impact on planet
Earth. Palm Wood which originated from
aged palm trees that were ready to be put
down were harvested for their trunks which made excellent timber resources
for wooden products.
After being subjected to an analysis by
the Institute for Energy and Environmental
Research in Heidelberg, Germany; Palm
Wood, a by-product from the replanting
of oil palm plantations was found to have
greater advantages over wood from conventional sources, in terms of Greenhouse Gas
Emission Savings.
Hence, PalmTec Door, the first solid
door manufactured using Palm Wood on an
industrial scale, was born. It is made from
hardwood timber for the door frames, with
either MIDF or plywood top and bottom
layers, and Palm Wood as the core material.
Its lower weight, optimised stability and
eco-friendly requirements all make for a
high quality, sturdy door.

BENEFITS

Weight reduced by 30%, yet solid and

sturdy
Stable core material, minimal door
warping
Eco-friendly by-product of crop plantation, with certification from the Malaysian Government
Low formaldehyde
Easy handling
Low energy, transport and packaging cost
Core material is water and termite
