If the buildings vent stack is operating properly smells shouldn't be coming out of the drains, no matter how much they pour down it.
If the vent stack is clogged or insufficiently sized, air could be forced up through the traps, but you'd be smelling sewer gas too. It's a really rank smell you'd notice, so I think the polysytrene smell is probably coming in some other way.
Hmmm it's not a shared building it would be a shared street connection for a row of properties before connecting into the main sewage.
