Technological advancements in the digital era have given rise to a new front in the battle against e-Waste in the form of IoT devices (IoT – Internet of Things). According to the Statista report, it was founded that in 2023, there were 135.5 million connected IoT devices in Thailand. These were divided into the proportion from consumers 39% (53.85 million devices), industry 13% (18.44 million devices), smart cities 8% (11.25 million devices), and others. In addition, the Fortune Business Insights reports that the Asia Pacific IoT market has the fastest growth rate in the world. The IoT market growth has resulted in the rapidly increasing amount of e-Waste which is regarded as one of the hazardous waste types. Therefore, it is very crucial that this must be managed in a proper manner. On the occasion of Global Recycling Day, March 18, 2024, True Corporation reiterates its position as a Thai tech company aiming to manage e-Waste with zero to landfill method and inviting everyone to create a sustainable world together.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Statista 2023 report also indicates that the trend of smart home device users in Thailand continues to grow. Currently, there are approximately 10.8 million and expected to increase another 73% to 18.7 million users in the next 3 years. The top 3 smart home devices that cater to Thai users’ needs are security devices, convenience devices, and entertainment devices. This reflects that smart home devices and smart home systems are well received and in the future, they may eventually become e-Waste. And as part of achieving zero e-Waste to landfill and bringing e-Waste into the recycling system efficiently, True Corporation has implemented the “e-Waste TinkTookTee DTorJai<\/a>” Project<\/strong>.\u00a0 In addition to unused smart phones, mobile phones and accessories, customers and everyone are able to litter their IoT devices<\/strong> at:<\/p>
