When it comes to construction and real estate development in India, it’s not just about aesthetics and functionality; it’s also about safety and well-being. Public Health Engineering (PHE) and Life Safety Systems play a pivotal role in ensuring that buildings are not just structures but safe havens for occupants. In this blog, we’ll explore what PHE engineering is, what Life Safety Systems entail, and why they are indispensable in the Indian context.

Human beings are a complex system of hormones, moods, and delicate chemical and physical balance. Raise the temperature to even 2 degrees Celsius and you’re sick. Go through two bad days of sleeping and you get headaches.

Both commercial and residential buildings built without the proper installation of fire hazard measures are at risk of such accidents. We can’t take this lightly; this must be addressed on a wide scale.

New infrastructure is being created all over the country in every major city. All of which drives economic growth and brings more opportunity to people, but due to unplanned urbanization and climate change, disasters such as urban flooding and water stagnation are becoming more frequent.
