Set up here in 1968, Daikin has mirrored the nation’s growth and gone on to achieve many firsts in Singapore. Daikin is honoured to be the only air conditioner brand in the Singapore Book of Records. With 4 ‘firsts’ in the air-conditioning industry, this prestigious recognition greatly reinforces Daikin’s position as a strong market leader and its dedication to continually provide the best for its new, current and long-term customers in Singapore. When the nation’s Housing and Development Board (HDB) was paving the way to house Singaporeans of growing affluence, Daikin was the first to introduce multi-split air-conditioning systems to HDB homeowners. As businesses boomed, Daikin also introduced to the island in 1986, the world’s first super-efficient VRV® Systems for commercial buildings. Daikin is also the first to manufacture Modlair Air Handling Units which are widely installed in commercial buildings. At home, at work and at play, Daikin has always been the preferred choice for residential, commercial and industrial buildings in Singapore.
