This afternoon’s SGBC Seminar, powered by Founding Member Daikin Airconditioning (Singapore) Pte. Ltd.) Pte Ltd and supported by Singapore Polytechnic, underscored a critical shift in the built environment sector. Indoor air quality is no longer a secondary concern – it is a defining pillar of sustainable building design and operational excellence.
As occupant expectations rise, the challenge lies in balancing superior air quality with optimised cooling performance. The consensus? It requires an integrated, data-driven approach.
Thank you to our expert speakers for sharing actionable insights:
🍃 Daikin walked us through the historical evolution of IAQ practices and the growing necessity of real-time data monitoring to truly understand indoor conditions.
🍃 AAF Asia (American Air Filter) highlighted that “one size does not fit all,” emphasising the need for application-specific filtration strategies and clear performance objectives.
🍃 InviroTech Systems Sdn Bhd provided a deep dive into the technicalities of UVGI, offering best practices for maximising ultraviolet germicidal irradiation performance within air handling units.
More than 100 participants also got the opportunity to look at market-ready IAQ and ventilation solutions through a mini-exhibition onsite.
