GLOSSARY
Humidification (Industrial)
Industrial humidification is the controlled addition of moisture to indoor environments for material stability. In Indonesia, high-pressure misting serves textile, tobacco, printing, and tea warehousing — industries where precise RH control preserves quality.

Industries requiring humidification in Indonesia
- Textile manufacturing (Bandung, Surabaya, Solo): Low humidity causes static and yarn breakage. Target RH 60–70% ±3%.
- Tobacco/kretek storage (Kudus, Malang): Leaf aging requires 65–70% RH. Deviation causes cracking or mould.
- Printing facilities: Paper dimensional stability requires 50–55% RH.
- Tea and spice warehousing: Flavour/aroma preservation requires controlled moisture.
Why high-pressure over conventional humidifiers
Conventional steam humidifiers wet surfaces and consume significant power. High-pressure misting at 70 bar produces sub-10-micron droplets that evaporate in the air stream, achieving precise RH control across multi-zone warehouses up to 20,000 m².
System scope
Indonesian industrial projects range from 500 m² single-zone facilities (15–20 nozzles, 60–120M IDR) to 20,000 m² multi-building complexes with PLC integration.
