Bikers are urged by the Philippine Veterans Bank to participate in the “Ride for Valor”

The Philippine Veterans Bank (PVB) today urged bike enthusiasts to participate in the “Ride for Valor,” a non-competitive bike ride that will be held on August 28 to honor Filipino soldiers who protected the nation from Japanese forces during World War II. The PVB is celebrating its 30th anniversary.

The event was originally scheduled for last April, but Mike Villa-Real, PVB vice president for communications, stated that owing to pandemic limitations and the elections, it has been moved to August 28 to coincide with National Heroes Day and mark the bank’s 30th anniversary.

“Through this event, we commemorate the unsung and unknown heroes of World War II and the Bataan Death March who bravely fought and sacrificed their lives for our country and freedom,” he said.

Villa-Real explained that the bike ride aims to raise funds for the Filipino-American Memorial Endowment (FAME), a non-government organization that maintains the kilometer markers of the Bataan Death March from Mariveles, Bataan to Capas, Tarlac. At least 10 kilometer markers in Mariveles and at least 4 in Limay have to be relocated due to road widening.

He said the event’s format for this year is Gran Fondo or “Big Ride,” and each participant will have a “passport” that they need to bring to three stops: Mt. Samat in Bataan, San Fernando Train/Water Station in Pampanga, and the Death March Memorial Shrine in Capas, Tarlac.

Each stop will have optional destinations such as the Stotsenburg Park near the Clark Parade Grounds and the Bamban Museum of History in Tarlac, where participants will be receive their ride kits.

Villa-Real said a 12-hour cut-off will be implemented during the event, and participants may finish the entire route or join along the stops.

“There will be a mechanic to help those who will experience mechanical issues and roving marshals to monitor the progress of the participants. Support vehicles are allowed, but participants should not ride the vehicle unless they decide to withdraw from the bike ride,” he noted.

Those interested in joining the bike ride may register online at bit.ly/RideforValor2022 and pay P550 per individual and P2,100 per group of five persons. Only bikes with brakes are allowed in the event, and participants must be fully vaccinated.

Each participant will be given a bib number, a bike sticker, an event shirt, a loot bag, and commemorative patches on the day of the event.

PVB is a commercial bank owned by World War II veterans and their families. As part of its charter, PVB allocates 20% of its annual net income for the benefit of its shareholders.

Around 80,000 Filipino and American soldiers and prisoners of war were forced by the Japanese military to march 69 miles from Bataan to Tarlac during World War II.

Only over 54,000 people made it to the camp, and of them, about 20,000 perished from infections, famine, dehydration, Japanese captors’ brutality, and other causes.

The event is sponsored by Booster-C, Air21, Panahon TV, and Shimano.

uHoo Aura Secures RESET™ Accreditation

uHoo, a Philippine climate-tech startup well known for developing smart and advanced indoor environmental monitoring and risk management technologies is delighted to announce that the uHoo Aura air quality monitor has been certified by RESET™ as a RESET Air Accredited Grade B monitor and uHoo’s software as a RESET Accredited Data Provider! This puts uHoo’s technology as one of the best, if not the best, technology in this domain, globally.

Regenerative Ecological, Social, and Economic Targets or RESET™ is a globally acknowledged set of standards that focus on data quality and data transparency with the purpose of helping built environments become healthy and sustainable. It is the world’s first certification program that is sensor-based and performance-driven. Unlike other building standards, RESET™ was designed with a clear understanding of the importance of air quality and why it needs to be monitored throughout a building’s entire operations.

Monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) helps track changes in the air due to various factors including the number of people inside the building, the activities that these people perform, the materials and equipment that have been used in the construction, as well as the equipment and machines used inside offices and buildings, to name a few. When RESET Air Accredited monitors are uninstalled from a property, or the IAQ falls below the RESET™ standard, a building’s or office’s RESET™ certification will be withdrawn.

RESET™ categorizes its accredited indoor air quality monitors as Grade A (Reference), Grade B (Commercial), and Grade C (Consumer). For commercial projects, there are two levels of performance when achieving RESET™ certification – the Acceptable targets and High-Performance targets.

According to RESET™, Acceptable targets are requisite; all projects must meet the defined limits. High-Performance targets are listed as a reference for projects striving for more rigorous IAQ goals and/or for projects located in regions where ambient outdoor air quality levels typically stay within recommended health limits.

 

About uHoo Aura
The Philippines is the Asia Pacific region’s second deadliest country for indoor air pollution, according to a study by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2019. Indoor air pollution is caused by several factors including solid fuels, combustion from vehicles, perfume, building materials and equipment, lamps, and the number of people occupying the space.
With uHoo Aura,  the most comprehensive indoor air quality monitoring solution for businesses and commercial built environments, Building owners, tenants and facility managers can track 13 environmental quality factors including the IAQ parameters, listed below, necessary for buildings to combat indoor air pollution and secure RESET™ certification.
PM2.5 – This is produced by tobacco smoke, office equipment, motor vehicles, power plants, etc. Exposure may lead to heart diseases, asthma attacks, and various respiratory conditions. RESET™ sets the target level for PM2.5 indoors below 35 μg/m3. For High-Performance targets, it should not exceed 12 μg/m3.
TVOCs – Total Volatile Organic Compounds are emitted by cleaning chemicals, air fresheners, adhesives, and solvents, among others. Exposure may lead to damage to the central nervous system, hives, and allergic reactions. RESET™’s ideal level for TVOCs is below 500 μg/m3, and for High-Performance targets, it is below 400 μg/m3.
Carbon Dioxide – Exposure to carbon dioxide (CO2) can cause headaches, dizziness, high blood pressure, and asphyxia. To prevent these conditions from happening, RESET™ sets the level for CO2 to be below 1,000ppm, and below 600 ppm for High-Performance targets.
Temperature and Humidity – RESET™ does not have any specific requirements for temperature and humidity but both must be continuously monitored as these factors can significantly influence the sensor readings for PM2.5 and TVOCs.
Carbon Monoxide – Carbon monoxide (CO) is a byproduct of incomplete combustion of oil, coal, or wood, and can be found in tobacco smoke and smoke from vehicles. The most common effects of CO exposure are dizziness, headaches, and fatigue as CO impedes the proper delivery of oxygen to the brain. RESET™ strictly recommends maintaining CO levels lower than 9ppm, and CO monitors are required only in indoor spaces with combustion such as boiler rooms, warehouses, breweries, petroleum refineries, mines, and steel production sites.
Along with the above parameters, uHoo Aura also monitors formaldehyde, PM1, PM4, and PM10, air pressure, light, and sound. Users also have the option to add two more sensors namely nitrogen dioxide and ozone or choose one among sulfur dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia, depending on their specific industries and/or requirements.
All the real-time data, historical trends, and analytics can be viewed and managed using the uHoo Business dashboard which can be accessed via a computer and a mobile app, anytime and anywhere. The dashboard ensures that all the features, metrics, and functionalities are well-presented and easily understandable by the end users.
Clients can be guaranteed that all the information presented by the uHoo Business Dashboard is reliable, accurate, and of high quality, considering that uHoo is a RESET Accredited Data Provider. RESET Accredited Data Providers are trusted software platforms and management systems that must be used for projects, offices or buildings aspiring to achieve RESET certification.
Email and push notifications with actionable tips are also available to grab users’ attention. This empowers them to take quick action on specific air quality problems inside the building. uHoo Aura can easily be integrated with any software or building management system to create a smarter and unified approach to IAQ management. It also has a display feature where building managers can share their facility’s indoor environmental quality conditions via large screen displays installed within the building. This provides occupants, employees, and visitors with confidence knowing that the building that they are using prioritizes their health and safety.
On top of RESET™ certification, The uHoo Aura also helps properties obtain green and healthy building certifications such as LEED, WELL, and Fitwel, among others. Having these certifications can help boost an organization’s or building’s desirability, credibility, and brand value and simultaneously enhance their ESG (environment, social and governance) performance.
uHoo Aura being accredited by RESET™ as a Grade B monitor and uHoo being a RESET Accredited Data Provider serves as an addition to its current certifications and credentials including the Singapore Green Building Council’s Green Building Product (GBP) certification, and the Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment or WEEE certification, which certifies that the uHoo Aura is environmentally-friendly in its design, manufacture, and use.
The certifications and accreditations the uHoo Aura and the uHoo software have obtained are testimony to our commitment to continuous improvement and ensuring that our customers have the best and most environmentally responsible solution in their offices and buildings” says Dustin Jefferson S. Onghanseng, CEO of uHoo.

Local Brand Allows for Sabon Refilling to become possible

Environmental activists are urging multinational corporations and top consumer goods brands to reduce the amount of plastic used in their product packaging by refilling. It has not yet occurred.

To accelerate the shift to a plastic-free future, a local company called SABON EXPRESS has joined the worldwide reuse and refill revolution. Mellany Zambrano, the company’s founder and chairman, thinks it’s time to change customer behaviors and behavior when it comes to purchasing household goods.

With its first-of-its-kind mechanized and automated “sabon” refilling stations, SABON EXPRESS, an innovative consumer goods brand and franchisable store chain, is paving the way for locally produced liquid soaps and detergents to have a strong foothold in the market. These stations enable consumers to have a refill of highly essential and consumable household products like dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, fabric conditioner, liquid hand soap, and car shampoo while reusing their own bottle.

SABON EXPRESS dubbed as The Refill Authority, is trailblazing a more appropriate way of sabon refilling – one that does not require the ‘tindera” to use “tabo” or dipper to fetch products from the drum to manually refill bottles, which is a current practice of most local sabon refilling stores in the country. Said manual process potentially contaminates products and makes refilling messy and unhygienic. Sabon Express recently launched its liquid soap dispensing unit at the ZeroWaste Bazaar in Uptown Mall BGC Taguig last July 18-21 – as the first and only automated and hygienic sabon refilling station in the country.

The Zero Waste Bazaar is in celebration of Plastic-Free July, a collaborative event of Ecowaste Coalition of the Philippines, Greenpeace Philippines, Mother Earth Foundation, Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives, Health Care Without Harm together with Break Free from Plastic, Oceana Philippines International, and Megaworld Lifestyle Malls. It showcased a photo exhibit and bazaar featuring art and eco-friendly stores to make plastic-free Pilipinas a reality.

SABON EXPRESS strongly advocates for “a world with less plastic” by promoting the reuse of plastic containers for household products via its conceptual and innovative hygienic ‘sabon’ refill dispensing unit in all its stores which comes in both manual and automated machines – a game changer in the local ‘sabon’ refilling industry.

Sabon Express is dedicated to continuous research and development and is receiving support from the Department of Science and Technology’s Industrial Technology Development Institute (DOST-ITDI) for further product development, technical advancement, and good manufacturing technology and processes with a vision to serve the country’s increasingly demanding market at scale. Because our company is advocacy-driven, Mellany Zambrano from Sabon Express adds, “We are continuously searching for ways to innovate so that we can serve our consumers better and to help save the environment in our own little way.”

Open for franchise, distribution and reselling

Among the signature products of Sabon Express are the Deesh dishwashing liquid, Lanza fabric conditioner, Hush hand soap, Savonex multipurpose cleaner, SoFresh washing machine tub cleaner, Glim glass cleaner, Switch liquid detergent, Vorox toilet care, and CarZ car care.

Sabon Express ALL-IN franchise+ package is worth P388,000 which includes Sabon refill dispensing machine, store fabrication and installation, display racks and counter table, store signages, P50,000 worth of initial product inventory, product marketing/sales training, and more.

For franchise, distribution and reselling inquiries, call Sabon Express hotlines: 0919-0967602/0970-5614670/0965-6912553 or visit their office at 1023 10th Floor, City & Land Mega Plaza, ADB Avenue, Ortigas, Pasig City.

You are invited to enter a new era of change with SM Supermalls

The reality is that no two people experienced the COVID-19 pandemic the same way. The epidemic was a solitary time of self-discovery, emotional development, and paradigm-shifting insights. It altered people, and in the process, it influenced how many of us perceive ourselves and the outside world.

As a result, consumer preferences and habits have changed. Studies reveal that consumers today want a different experience, one that is kinder and more accepting of the changes that each individual had gone through in the previous two years, as opposed to a pre-pandemic world where people frequently spent on luxuries and experiences that allowed them to celebrate their accomplishments. People increasingly place a higher priority on their own well-being and support goods and services that promote development.

Brands are beginning to adjust to the shifts in consumer tastes. And as the entire company is getting ready for a revamp this year, SM is prepared with a slew of new items, staying true to its core commitment to making people happy.

“The history of SM Supermalls is one that has been built on innovation and change to serve the needs of millions of Filipinos,” says SM Supermalls President, Steven Tan. “We’ve been with our customers through their every milestone for almost four decades. And we are committed to always changing, always growing with our customers in the years and decades to come.”

SM Supermalls: Welcoming Every Change in You

SM continues to stay true to its mission to provide Filipino families with a fun and engaging in-mall experience so they can go home with a smile on their faces.

There will always be a plethora of experiences for each person who comes through SM’s doors. This is true for the various personalities that emerged during the pandemic; from eco-warriors and Plantitas to health buffs and sports personalities who embraced biking, healthy eating, and home gyms, and bakers and homemakers who turned their passion projects into small businesses.

“I believe that now more than ever, it is important to recognize the new changes to our world,” adds SM Supermalls President Steven Tan. “And people are continuing to grow as they invest in experiences that uplift their lives.”

Ushering the Future with the Transformation of SM Supermalls

In the next few months, Filipinos across Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao will get to experience the wellness-oriented and sustainability-driven transformation of SM Supermalls with a host of new and exciting activities. These include paw parks for pet moms and dads, al fresco dining areas for hangout groups, plant hubs for eco-enthusiasts, bike facilities for the growing cycling community, co-working spaces, experiential retail, blockbuster and larger-than-life cinema escapades and so much more.

Curiosity seekers, foodies, friends, and families will have a lot to rediscover as the Philippine mall experience is refreshed by SM’s brand refresh campaign. You’re always welcome here, so come on in!

Follow SM Supermalls on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/smsupermalls for additional details, and visit any SM Supermall today to see what’s new!
