Eco-Sensor Water-Saving Infrastructure
By 2025, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi has achieved a major milestone in sustainable infrastructure by completing the full replacement of conventional water fixtures — including taps, showerheads, and bidets — with eco-sensor water-saving appliances across all campuses. This initiative represents a cornerstone of KMUTT’s efforts to reduce water consumption and promote responsible resource management.
In accordance with KMUTT’s Green Procurement Policy, all new water appliances procured for construction or renovation projects are required to carry a Green Label or Green Certificate, ensuring that only environmentally certified and energy-efficient products are installed.
The adoption of eco-sensor systems equipped with automatic shut-off and optimized flow-control features has significantly improved water efficiency, resulting in an annual reduction of over 50,000 cubic meters of piped water — reducing operational costs while strengthening hygiene and convenience in public facilities.
Key Outcomes
Measurable results from KMUTT’s water-efficient appliance transformation.
Target
100% water-efficient appliances usage in campus by 2024.
Status (2025)
100% of water-efficient appliances usage in campus — target achieved.
Impact
More than 50,000 m³ of water saved annually, contributing directly to KMUTT’s long-term goals for resource efficiency and carbon neutrality.
Through this successful implementation, KMUTT demonstrates how technological innovation and environmental responsibility can work hand in hand to achieve measurable sustainability outcomes — serving as a model for higher education institutions across Thailand.
