We verify food quality with health certificates and test reports. Microbial laboratory tests are conducted monthly on food and beverages, drinking water, ice and swimming-pool water.

We employ professional pest control contractors to maintain a clean, hygienic and safe environment for our customers. We conduct annual fire system inspections, fire drills and safety talks at our buildings. IoT technology contributes to our smart fire safety management. High-risk areas are monitored and tenants receive emergency notifications via our SoProp and SoPropBiz apps. An AI visual analysis system at Hong Yip’s properties monitors high-risk areas and sends alerts to control room. During the reporting year, we did not have any incidents of non-compliance with regulation or voluntary codes concerning the health and safety impacts of products and services.

We have established an internal target on air quality to promote the health and well-being of tenants and we monitor the target progress on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) certifications. Since 2006, most of our properties have earned ‘Excellent’ or ‘Good’ certifications from the IAQ Information Centre. Hong Yip attained IAQ certificates and published a regular circular that promotes a non-smoking environment for tenants.

In the first phase, IoT- empowered monitoring devices have been installed at 20 office buildings to track real-time IAQ.
