From an industry perspective, the health and productivity impacts are immense – prompting a shift toward healthier building designs and smarter technologies, to protect workers, building users and real estate investments in the Asean region.
Ensuring the health and longevity of properties is crucial in today's digital age, where people spend most of their time indoors. Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) has a far-reaching impact across residential and commercial real estate – for both old and new developments. Addressing these issues is crucial for improving building standards as well as reducing the health burden on occupants.
Building quality directly impacts the well-being of occupants, and "Sick Building Syndrome" has emerged as a significant concern, causing a variety of health problems due to poor indoor environments in recent years. As awareness of SBS grows, the demand for healthier buildings is increasing. Both investors and occupants are increasingly prioritising properties that provide safer, healthier indoor spaces, leading construction companies and real estate developers to recognise the impact of SBS on the global real estate market.
