VTECH SUSTAINABILITY ACTIVITIES

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. Our management

approach continues to focus on two

key management principles – “Design

for People” and “Design for Excellence”.

Design for People

Addressing our customers’ needs is

our primary responsibility in the stage

of product design. We continuously

use our technological expertise to help

improve the health and safety of our

customers, which is our number one

objective. We have developed a series

of baby soothers that help parents take

care of their babies. We have partnered

with the local broadband service

leader to enhance the performance

of our smart home device. We have

also launched unique wireless smart

headphones that help users stay fit

and connected at all times. Meanwhile,

VTech continues to use its global

leadership position in electronic learning

products to develop high-quality and

innovative educational products that

inspire children’s creativity through

fun and smart play. In order to stay in

harmony with the environment, we also

incorporate the eco-design principles

into our products and launch many

eco-friendly products.

Products for Customers’

Health and Safety

With increasing global awareness of

people’s health and lifestyle, VTech’s

product design team has applied

innovative designs and functionality

elements in developing products that

could help customers live with ease

and safety. We also work closely with

different target customers including

parents, seniors and children to design

our products in order to address their

needs for the enhancement of their

well-being.

Wireless Smart Headphones

More people enjoy not being disturbed

while listening to music, especially

when they are on the run. A smart

powerful microcomputer could definitely

make one’s life much easier, while

enjoying the luxurious audio quality.

VTech continues to use its technical

expertise and resources to help our

customer bring innovative ideas to

life, by producing the one-of-a-kind

personalised smart device.

The waterproof earpiece is featured

with a health tracker, keeping track of

users’ health performances such as

heart rate. With the option of noise

cancellation, users could enjoy the

luxurious acoustic effect from their

favourite music. The built-in sensors

in this smart device also allow users

to give commands to this earpiece

with customised gestures and

movements, such as nod heads to

accept phone calls and shake heads

to decline the call.
