Gain City S'pore says air purifier sales up by 76% in Sep. 2026 due to haze
Increase.
Local appliance retailer Gain City has reported a 76% increase in air purifier sales in September 2026, according to Lianhe Zaobao. The rise in sales can be attributed to the worsening haze, which has led to heightened demand for air purifiers. A spokesperson for Gain City revealed that sales of these products surged by 76% compared to the previous month, August 2026.
The company is collaborating with various brand suppliers to ensure a steady supply of air purifiers, and is also restocking popular models on a weekly basis to meet the growing market demand. The spokesperson further emphasized that Gain City offers over 100 different air purifier models, with consumers now placing greater importance on a product's ability to filter not only purification efficiency but also PM2.5, pollen, and other airborne particles.
Court's air purifier sales have experienced an even more substantial increase, with sales rising more than fourfold in the last three to four weeks. Customers have shown a keen interest in factors such as the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) and other elements, including the lifespan of the purifier and the frequency of filter replacements.
Despite the surge in inquiries, Court's spokesperson stated that they maintain sufficient inventory both online and across their 12 stores islandwide. The company continues to manage its inventory of products at various price points and specifications by partnering with brand suppliers and distributors. Furthermore, the founder and executive director of electronics and home appliance retailer Audio House stated that there has been a 100% increase in air purifier sales compared to the non-haze periods.
