VTech strives not only to provide high
quality products and comply with
the highest international and local
quality and safety standards, but also
incorporate sustainability concepts into
product design in order to enhance
the well-being of our customers and
benefit the society. Following our
objectives on product development,
our management approach focuses
on two key management principles –
“Design for People” and “Design for
Excellence”.
Design for People
VTech always considers addressing
our customers’ needs as our primary
responsibility in the stage of our
product design. We continuously use
our technological expertise to help
improve the health and safety of our
customers. Our well-received baby
monitor series and the newly launched
wireless monitoring system, which is a
VTech Smart Home device to connect
users’ home with Ultra-Low-Energy
(ULE) and Wi-Fi technologies, are
the principal examples. In addition,
VTech also uses our global leadership
position in electronic learning products
to design a lot of ELPs to inspire
children’s creativity and develop the
valuable skills at each stage of their
educational development. In order to
stay in harmony with the environment,
we also embed the eco-design
principles into our products and
launch many eco-friendly products
such as our Digital European Cordless
Telecommunication (DECT) cordless
phones with eco-labels of Blue Angel
and Energy Star, and our wireless
monitoring system with ULE standard.
Products for Customers’
Health and Safety
With the increasing concerns of our
customers about their health and
lifestyle, VTech’s product design team
has stepped up efforts to develop
more innovative products to help them
to live with ease and safety. We also
work closely with different user groups
including parents, seniors and children,
to design our products in order to
address their specific needs for the
enhancement of their well-being.

Incorporating ULE and Wi-Fi
