Selling it was always an easier option than restoring the building. But bringing back the beauty of the building and leaving a part of history for Penangites and our children was a quest worth going into. We wanted to bring back the former glory of this stately build­ing,” said Datuk Ooi Sian Hian.

Over time, all metals (except gold) rust when exposed to water (H2O) and air (O2). We all know how quickly cars become rusted when exposed to a coastal marine environment. Steel corrosion is irreversible and permanent. 

Unprotected steel structures are exposed to the elements, which may lead to corrosion, and this will affect the structural integrity. Hence, it is important to apply tried and tested protective coatings for longevity and reduced maintenance costs, in addition to enhance the structure to prevent it from rust.

Through the collaboration with Panasonic, WORQ has learned about the nanoe™ X technology. Not only is the technology able to inhibit 99.99% of the SARS-COV2 virus which causes Covid-19, but it is also Helps to deodorize and moistures the air in the room. This provides more reason for people to get back to work in a safe place where they can work productively with peace of mind.

Today, TemasyaGlenmarie is a mature mixed development that consists of industrial, residential and commercial property components.

Adding into the list soon is an upcoming integrated development – Temasya Prisma, which is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The average occupancy for the past few weeks since the travel ban lift has been approximately 40%, compared to 20% to 25% averagely before the interstate travel was allowed.

As long as the rate of supply outpaces the rate of demand, there should be no shortage of affordable houses across the state. Instead, what should be of more concern is the overbuilding of price-controlled social houses, with a high number of unsold units, low take-up rates and low marketability.

The investment in a high-quality flooring system is actually essential in prolonging its shelf life, ensuring a safe working environment. Hence, saving you money and time in the long run without impacting the business operation where time is of the essence.

The nanoe™ X technology is the result of Panasonic’s relentless pursuit of new technology in improving IAQ. By applying high voltage into the moisture in the atmosphere, it then creates nano-sized (5-20nm) electrostatic atomised water particles containing hydroxyl radicals which act as air-cleaning agents.
