Step by step, one remote at a time, t4h. is moving towards better and more sustainable future
With the t4h. Symbiosis Programme we are breaking new ground by focusing on sustainable innovations and high-end RCUs with high-tech designs while being mindful of our footprint.
Our commitment
Stay curious and adopt new sustainable strategies
Keep our research for alternative eco-friendly materials
Utilise recycled plastic materials for our exciting new RCUs
Avoid the use of any harmful chemicals
Extend the battery life with cutting-edge power management solutions
Continue working for reducing CO2 emissions and electronic waste
We Identify, Test and Evaluate sustainable solutions. No detail is left behind in our path to a better future.
Leading the sustainable way with 100% recyclable RCU
t4h. is reaching new sustainability heights with the Woodly Project, thanks to highly innovative, fully recyclable bio-composite with wood fibres, obtained from sustainable forestry.
Sustainable impact
The t4h. Symbiosis programme and its predecessors helped us shape the future of t4h.,how we approach sustainability and how we develop new remote controls.
We see the strive for sustainability wherever we go – from governments, to private companies, operators and end-users. The Symbiosis Programme is enabling our partners meet their sustainability goals without compromising on the technology and innovations, and delivering the ultimate user experience.
New eco-friendly materials
We are minimising our Carbon footprint by using recycled plastics, allowing us to reduce the CO2 emissions with 75% while retaining the same properties of the plastic.
But we didn’t stop here… Looking for alternative materials we found an amazing bio-based compound and a way for 50% CO2 emission reduction and we have unlimited opportunities for design experimentation.
Harvesting
the power of the Sun
We are eliminating the need of disposable batteries by transforming not only outdoor light, but recycling energy by charging the next generation t4h. remote controls with indoor light.
But how can we reduce the amount of batteries going to the landfills? t4h. found the solution by utilising low power state of the art SoC easily combined with energy harvesting solutions for next level sustainability.
Sustainable Packaging
We are improving not only our remotes, but also their packaging. t4h. is eliminating single use plastics and developing new fully recyclable paper packaging for the RCUs and their batteries, that will replace the traditional PE plastic bags.
Sometimes the small elements have a big impact – like the pull-out tab for the batteries of the remote control. The simple move to allowing the RCU to be turned off with the batteries in, eliminates the use of plastic for this element.
