Adept Materials has launched LilyPad, a humidity-regulating paint that turns ordinary walls into environmental partners. The innovative design transforms interior wall surfaces into active contributors to indoor air quality. LilyPad incorporates a proprietary formulation that absorbs and releases moisture in response to changes in indoor humidity. In high humidity conditions, the paint traps excess moisture, helping to prevent dampness and mould growth; when the air becomes dry, it gradually releases stored moisture back into the room. This passive, dynamic exchange stabilises indoor humidity without electricity, fans, or dehumidifiers, contributing to healthier and more resilient spaces.
