Fats leak during croissant laminating

Hi I am fm asia. I just love croissant. To b specific I am fm Singapore. Our temperature here hot abt 28-32 degree. I try to do croissant only at night or early morning. Unfortunately the fat melt during laminating.

What other options do I have besides working in an aircon 

Thks

Work faster, freeze your pin and dough (though only for a while, not overnight or anything).

1 mixing of my dough weigh abt 500 gm. I am thinking to divide the dough into 2. I hope this will speed up my lamination.

I just divided the dough into smaller portions so I can work faster and yes, it also helps to freeze the rolling pin and dough for a while like 10 minutes.
