Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok: Vacuum Insulation & GenAI for Energy Efficiency
Location: Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand
Presenter: Professor Saim Memon, CEO of Sanyou London
What happened?
Professor Saim Memon, CEO of Sanyou London, delivered a presentation at Chulalongkorn University, Thailand’s oldest university, meeting faculty and researchers from the Department of Industrial Engineering. The visit focused on practical routes to reduce energy loss through walls using vacuum-insulation energy technologies and on how GenAI can accelerate materials innovation.
What was presented?
- From idea to industry: a clear pathway from concept and lab R&D to mass production and field deployment.
- Real-world solutions:
- Vacuum Insulated Wallpaper (VIW) for rapid, low-disruption internal wall upgrades in occupied buildings.
- Decorative Integrated VIP (DVIP) for durable external façades where space and programme time are tight.
- VIP formats for closing thermal bridges around reveals and services.
These products target slim build-ups with strong thermal performance, helping estates lower heating and cooling loads without sacrificing floor area.
Where does GenAI fit?
- Faster design loops: surrogate models guide materials choices and layer stacks before physical prototyping.
- Manufacturing insight: anomaly detection and predictive quality control stabilise output at scale.
- Deployment evidence: data pipelines turn site measurements into decision-ready metrics for estates and contractors.
Why it matters in Bangkok and the wider region
In hot-humid climates, cooling loads dominate. Thin, high-resistance insulation reduces heat ingress, eases HVAC peaks, and improves comfort—key for homes, campuses and public buildings where deep construction layers are impractical.
Appreciation
Sincere thanks to Chulalongkorn University (Department of Industrial Engineering, Thailand) for the invitation and thoughtful discussion. The exchange highlighted opportunities for university–industry collaboration on retrofit, new-build envelopes, and data-driven verification.
