Panasonic and Byond28 Jointly Providing Purified Indoor Air Quality for Mothers & Their Newborn Babies

Panasonic Malaysia and Byond28 launched their partnership at the confinement care centre in Cheras yesterday through Panasonic’s latest technology; the ziaino™ air treatment in the efforts to establish a purified, controlled and hygienic environment for mothers and newborn babies.

This alliance with Panasonic is part of Byond28’s efforts to provide and improve the indoor air quality for their residents – mothers and their newborns to enjoy a better quality of life. The collaboration will kick off with the installation of Panasonic’s ziaino™ air treatment in selected confinement rooms and common areas to ensure a clean and safe environment for everyday activities around the centre itself.

“One of the most significant matters being drummed into expectant Asian mothers is the importance of confinement care. A traditional confinement period generally begins immediately after delivery and lasts for at least 30 days. Modern confinement practice involves staying in the hospital after delivery for 2 nights and an additional 28 nights in a confinement centre immediately after being discharged,” said Sally Peh Chen Woon, Centre Manager, Byond28 Confinement Care.

She added, “Byond28 Confinement Care not only follows traditional confinement practices, but also prioritizes on educating parents during these 28 days of confinement on the crucial aspects of parenthood regardless of if they have already become parents. The objective is for these parents to familiarize themselves with their newborn during this recovery period. We want to provide a controlled environment for mothers to safely rejuvenate and for newborn babies to grow healthily during this confinement period. Incorporating Panasonic’s ziaino™ contributes to this controlled environment by mitigating indoor pollutants and strong odors”
