PETALING JAYA (Dec 17): S P Setia, in collaboration with Panasonic Malaysia announced that D'Network (pictured) in Setia Eco Park, Setia Alam has been equipped with Panasonic’s patented nanoe™X air purification technology powered by solar, Malaysia's first of its kind system. This system offers a safer air quality to patrons at this venue.

In a media statement today, the entire D’Network’s indoor area, which includes all F&B outlets, shops and the grocer will be fully installed with Panasonic Air-e Device (nanoe™X), which is the world's first solar-powered hybrid F&B hub.

This is the first for such a solar-powered system installed in a public area and in full operation for 24 hours.

nanoe™X, the original ionizer to generate “nano-sized atomized water particles” is developed by Panasonic Corporation (Panasonic). An electrostatic atomization technology, it collects invisible moisture in the air and applies high voltage to it to produce “hydroxyl radicals contained in water”.

The decisive factor is the existence of hydroxyl radicals inside nanoe™X. Hydroxyl radicals are characterised as being strongly oxidative and highly reactive.

Panasonic has been conducting research on nanoe™X technology over the past 20 years since 1997. It has verified its effectiveness in various areas, including inhibiting pathogenic micro-organisms (bacteria, fungi, and viruses) and allergens, breaking down PM 2.5 components.

Panasonic has recently released the results of a research study conducted on its nanoe X technology, in partnership with global contract research organisation, Texcell in France.

As an organisation that specialises in viral testings, viral clearance and immunoprofiling, Texcell has verified the inhibitory effect of the nanoe X, a technology with the benefits of hydroxyl radicals, on the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), through this collaborative study. Over 99.99% of SARS-CoV-2 activity in a controlled 45L test space was found to be inhibited by nanoe X within two hours.

“Panasonic and S P Setia’s collaboration presents indeed a very smart and timely technological breakthrough to bring forth clean technology to tackle the invisible threat of Covid-19 pandemic. Panasonic nanoe™X air purification technology utilises the benefits of hydroxyl radicals contained in water to effectively neutralise adhered viruses that are found mostly on fabric and surfaces.

By equipping our outlets with nanoe™X Technology operated by 24-hour solar-power, we can offer 24-hour Active Air Purification – all whilst being environmental friendly as the equipment deployed are highly energy efficient and eco-friendly," said Datuk Koe Peng Kang, Senior Executive Vice President of S P Setia Bhd.

"In today's health-conscious world, we care about taking exercise. We care about what we eat and what we touch. We also care about what we breathe. As a conscientious and trusted brand to property buyers and the communities we build, we want not just to help create a better quality environment but also the air within that environment," added Koe.

"We are truly excited to collaborate with Panasonic in creating this solar-powered, patented nanoe™X, remarkable air purification system that would be beneficial to all. We hope to set a leading example to the rest in offering another level of safety and security to the communities we build.

Staying true to our development philosophy, we strive to provide our patrons and the whole community more sustainable live, learn, work and play experiences," Koe continued.
