The Rainforest Breeze

I am Rahmat Bayudi, CEO of Saujana Bidara Sdn Bhd, the partner company of a leading international producer of bio-enzyme as green materials for the building industry. 

As a 'kampung boy', I am passionate about the holistic aspects safety, health and environment, especially the rainforest. This passion was enhanced further through formal training in architecture and urban design whilst living in the UK and Australia, where the relationship between the natural and built environment became increasingly critical. Such expertise brought me to Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ), already a common term in the building and healthcare industry, that refers to the quality of air, odour, light, sound and thermal comfort in a specific environment. 

This passion has led me to help establish Saujana Bidara as the leading IEQ expert in the region when it comes to provision of cool clean fresh air into your living and working spaces. Our bio-enzyme treatment prevents bacteria and fungal growth in the spaces of your houses, apartments, office towers and retail complexes. We improve the quality of the air that you breath to match that rainforest breeze that we need.

Oftentimes, air input into our buildings, mostly through the air conditioning system, are not well maintained, thus become a major source of illness for the occupants. This phenomena is a result of poorly or non maintained air conditioning system - from the filter, coil, ducting and diffuser, where air passes through before entering into the room you are in. The bacteria and fungal count in these spaces would reach multiple millions count, whereas the recommended healthy level is below one hundred. However not many are aware of these problems because we don't see them from our usual spaces, they are hidden away in the ceilings and other technical rooms. We are dealing with intangible matters, but the fact is that according to World Health Organisation, 40% of illnesses are mostly caused by indoor pollutants.

Little that you know, you are breathing in toxic bad air that contains bacteria, fungus and other pathogens. They in turn cause Sick Building Syndromes (SBS) such as asthma, allergies, sore throat, lethargic, even Monday Blues and so on. These are the main source of illness for most building occupants. Can you imagine spending over eight hours a day in your fully air conditioned office breathing in unhealthy substances into our lungs? 

Our initial and hard core clients are the hospitals and other healthcare facilities, as the medical professions know too well the importance of healthy air. We can choose wisely what to eat or drink due to health consciousness but it is very difficult to choose the air to breath inside buildings - you are at the mercy of the building manager of that particular space you are in. Operation Theatres (OT) must comply to stringent IEQ standards, failing which may caused the closure of such facility, which hospitals cannot afford.

We are now servicing newer client groups such as the hotels, banks and higher learning institutions. The general public has become more aware of the need of healthy air inside buildings, with the campaign in mass media and promotion by green building organisations such as Malaysia Green Building Confederation (MGBC). More and more people are educating themselves by joining seminars and workshops organised by our team and associates. Such trend are seen in our schools, colleges and universities as future business opportunities in facility management - as part of saving the earth programme.

In the past, we found it difficult to convince building owners, managers and occupants to take up our services. For over two years, responses from large buildings owners were one of apathy, whereas the general occupants had been in the dark about the status of their building system. Many especially those in charge of large buildings and complexes seemed oblivious to the air quality they are breathing in. 

Many were unaware that the conventional practices use chemicals to clean their system. For those who are aware, they were not convinced that our IEQ treatment using bio-enzyme can improve the quality of their indoor spaces and most importantly their health.  

Worst of all, many buildings do not have proper maintenance in place thus most of their equipment are either in poor condition or needing replacement. Not only that it generates bad IEQ for the occupants, but also causes breakdown and failures which increases maintenance cost overall. Furthermore, the conventional cleaning using chemicals are corrosive to the system which are mostly made from metal.

To solve this chronic problem, we treat and decontaminate the air conditioning system using a successful and proven maintenance and servicing technique with specific use of bio-enzyme to clean up bacteria food source from the system. By using this, we reduced bacteria counts in the system from millions to almost nothing with our treatment, and provides a 12 months warranty of such quality. With combination of indoor landscaping and interior design, we might achieve the forest breeze quality in your homes or work places.  

Is there any of you who wishes to know how to ensure your air quality inside your homes and workplaces are always clean and free from dangerous bacteria, fungus and bio-film, FREE of charge?

Is there any of you who wishes to find out how these powerful messages were delivered to the bankers that made them nodding until the end?

Is there any of you who wishes to consider becoming our business partner where you could earn sustainable income in the rapidly growing facility management industry to service our existing clients?
