SDG 3

Ensuring healthy lives and promoting wellbeing.

On top of numerous physical and mental health and wellbeing considerations, we also design and construct our buildings to enhance visual comfort through the use of natural daylight, glare indices and diverse types of lighting, at the same time minimising the adverse impacts of external lighting, such as sky glow, source intensity and building luminance. We also consider acoustic impacts throughout the design, construction and operational phases of our buildings. In addition, we are gradually installing UVC lamps in the air handling units across our portfolios. As at 31st December 2021, this upgrade has been completed for over 650 units in Taikoo Place to help with sterilisation and improve IAQ.

Apart from monitoring occupant wellbeing in existing buildings, we also incorporate wellness features and initiatives in our new projects.
