Project Overview
Amid growing global awareness of healthy environments and sustainable development, Thailand’s retail sector is proactively adopting indoor air quality (IAQ) strategies to enhance customer experience and improve the energy efficiency of HVAC systems. Over the past two decades, Tongdy has specialized in air quality monitoring and solutions. From 2023 to 2025, Tongdy successfully implemented smart IAQ management systems across three major Thai retail chains—HomePro, Lotus, and Makro—optimizing fresh air intake and reducing HVAC energy consumption in environments with year-round air conditioning.
Retail Partners
HomePro: A nationwide home improvement retail chain where high indoor air quality is essential due to prolonged customer dwell time.
Lotus (formerly Tesco Lotus): A large-scale consumer goods hypermarket with high foot traffic and complex environments requiring rapid and intelligent IAQ response.
Makro: A wholesale market serving bulk and food supply sectors, combining cold chain zones, open spaces, and high-density areas—posing unique deployment challenges for IAQ systems.
Deployment Details
Tongdy deployed over 800 TSP-18 indoor air quality monitors and 100 TF9 outdoor air quality devices. Each store features 20–30 strategically placed monitoring points covering checkout areas, lounges, cold storage, and main aisles to ensure complete data coverage.
All devices are networked via RS485 bus connections to each store’s central control room for low-latency, high-reliability data transmission. Each store is equipped with its own platform for real-time control of fresh air and purification systems, avoiding energy waste.
Smart Environmental Management System
Air Quality Control: By integrating with ventilation and purification systems, Tongdy’s solution dynamically adjusts airflow and purification levels based on real-time indoor and outdoor air quality data. This ensures on-demand operation, achieving both energy savings and improved air quality.
Data Visualization: All IAQ data is centralized on a visual dashboard with support for automatic alerts and report generation, enabling predictive maintenance and operational efficiency.
Impact and Client Feedback
Healthier Environments: The system maintains IAQ standards above WHO guidelines, enhancing customer comfort and time spent in-store, while providing staff with a safer workplace.
Sustainability Benchmark: On-demand ventilation and optimized energy use position participating stores as green building leaders in Thailand’s retail sector.
Client Satisfaction: HomePro, Lotus, and Makro have praised the solution for improving shopper engagement and increasing purchase intent.
Conclusion: Clean Air, Commercial Value
Tongdy’s smart air quality system not only reduces operational costs for retail chains but also enhances customer well-being—strengthening brand reputation.
The success of this project in Thailand underscores Tongdy’s expertise and reliability in delivering intelligent IAQ solutions tailored for large-scale commercial environments.
