First smoking cabin launched to counter secondhand smoke in Singapore

SINGAPORE - The first cabin for smokers able to convert cigarette smoke into clean air has been installed in Singapore, outside Fusionopolis in the One-north area.

"I am a father of two and there are many occasions where my family has been inconvenienced by the presence of cigarette smoke. I have always felt that there should be a better solution to contain cigarette smoke in Singapore," said Mr Choo.The base of the filtering system is fitted with a centrifugal fan which acts as a suction in pulling cigarette smoke into the filtering system.
