Safe Drinking Water Program
In alignment with KMUTT’s long-standing commitment to water conservation, health, and well-being, the Safe Drinking Water Program plays a vital role in ensuring access to safe, high-quality drinking water while maintaining efficient wastewater management throughout the university.
Established in 2007 as part of the KMUTT Water Conservation Policy, the program is dedicated to delivering clean and safe drinking water for all members of the university community students, staff, and visitors alike. It operates as both a health safeguard and a key element of KMUTT’s sustainable resource management system.
The Safe Drinking Water Program conducts regular monitoring and testing of all drinking water stations on campus, including those located in canteens, cafeterias, food centers, minimarts, and restaurants. Monthly water quality analyses are performed by KMUTT’s Central Laboratory Services and the Food Safety Center, Faculty of Science, to ensure full compliance with Thailand’s Drinking Water Quality Standards.
Since 2013, the university has expanded this commitment through the Personal Mug Campaign, which encourages students and staff to use reusable mugs at over 119 water bottle filling stations across campus. This initiative not only reduces plastic waste but also promotes sustainable consumption habits and public health awareness.
Through continuous monitoring, awareness programs, and infrastructure upgrades, KMUTT has maintained 100% compliance with national drinking water standards in 2025, ensuring that all drinking water on campus meets stringent safety and quality requirements.
Key Outcomes
- Target: 100% safe drinking water quality achieved by 2018.
- Status (2025): Maintained KMUTT’s drinking water quality remains at 100% within the acceptable standard range, fully meeting national safety and hygiene benchmarks.
By combining health protection with sustainability principles, KMUTT’s Safe Drinking Water Program exemplifies how integrated management and community participation can create a safe, green, and healthy campus environment for all.
