Designing for Health & Climate

1789724616400

In Singapore’s hot-humid climate, maintaining healthy indoor environments while optimising cooling performance requires a balanced approach that considers not only hashtag#HVAC systems but also the building envelope and the materials that shape indoor spaces.

This afternoon, we organised a SGBC Seminar powered by SGBC Member Knauf Insulation Pte Ltd to examine how building design in tropical climates can support healthier, more comfortable and energy-efficient indoor environments.

The Seminar covered the critical role of the thermal envelope in reducing heat gain and cooling demand, as well as the impact of material selection on indoor air quality; the importance of balancing insulation, airtightness, ventilation and dehumidification to deliver high-performing buildings suited to Singapore’s climate; real-world case studies of innovative green buildings, demonstrating how integrated design can deliver measurable outcomes

A huge thank you to Knauf Insulation Pte Ltd and GreenA Consultants for delivering an informative session, and to all participants for your active participation.
