Professor Amir’s sick-building research in Samsung’s office-air guidance

Research reaching practice

Samsung Climate Solutions uses Professor Amir’s sick-building-syndrome review in its office air-quality whitepaper and UK business infographic.

How the research was used

The infographic explicitly attributes its health-symptom and workplace-cost panels to Professor Amir’s paper. The whitepaper also cites the study when discussing indoor-air symptoms, productivity and potential costs, bringing the research into communication for commercial-building customers.

The documented contribution

Infographic reference 3 · Whitepaper page 5, footnote 4. The documented use explains the air-quality problem. It does not establish validation of Samsung products, product development by Professor Amir, or a partnership or endorsement.
