EGS-plan has supported the project with fundamental commissioning services. Building commissioning is a quality management process, which verifies, that the technical systems of a new building are meeting the owner’s project requirements. Therefore, commissioning starts right at the beginning of a new building project before the design starts. In regular periods, the design and the construction of a project will be checked and compared by EGS-plan’s commissioning experts with the original owner’s expectations. The actual commissioning work starts for our team with finalizing of the construction and startup of the technical systems. A commissioning plan clarifies responsibilities and provides functional checklists, so that the startup of the building is a structured process, despite of the final hectic weeks of a construction project. The result is a building which works as intended with a low energy consumption, great thermal comfort and low maintenance costs.

EGS-plan (Bangkok) Co., Ltd. has contributed with the energy and sustainability concept as well as the DGNB certification to the project. Main goal was to achieve an excellent work environment and highest environmental quality.

The sustainability concept comprises of a high-performance building envelope with double glazing with low-e coating, efficient thermal insulation, an airtightness concept and external shading. Fresh air is delivered by an air handling unit with energy recovery, the lighting system comprises of direct-indirect LED lamps and no harmful building materials were used. Energy is supplied by a district cooling system and a solar rooftop system, which produces more renewable energy than required for building operation (net-zero).

For its outstanding sustainability concept, the building was awarded with the first DGNB Platinum certificate for office buildings in Southeast Asia.
