Cleaning robots
Swire Properties has embraced new technologies to maintain hygiene and reduce direct human contact amid the COVID-19 pandemic. At HKRI Taikoo Hui mall and its office towers and the ONE INDIGO office tower, the Company deployed automated robotic cleaning machines, which ran on programmed orders and cleaned within pre-programmed areas. At Pacific Place, we deployed a cleaning robot, which enhances cleaning efficiency while simultaneously freeing up cleaning staff for other tasks. After being programmed with a cleaning map, the robot automatically starts the cleaning process. Being equipped with sensors, it avoids objects and people, and can generate a report after completion, analysing the time spent cleaning, the coverage area and cleaning efficiency.

Robust temperature screening
From the early days of the COVID-19 outbreak, all our properties were equipped with temperature-scanning technology to measure visitors’ temperature and ensure that no-one with a fever was given access. Many of our properties employed infrared monitors at the entrances of malls and office buildings, making temperature scanning more efficient and automatic.

Use of germicidal technology
Our properties in Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland began using a germicidal technology, applying it to common building facilities, including the handrails of entrance doors, escalator handrails, lift cars, and lift buttons in the complex’s office towers. The technology involves a long-lasting antimicrobial gel that kills almost 100% of viruses and bacteria and remains effective for up to 90 days.
