Delta Electronics (Thailand) Public Company Limited announced that it has received the Sustainability Disclosure Award 2024, marking its seventh consecutive year of recognition since 2017. Presented by the Thaipat Institute, this prestigious award highlights Delta’s outstanding efforts in sustainability disclosure and its commitment to achieving SDG Target 12.6, which emphasizes the integration of sustainable practices and transparent reporting into business operations.
Ms. Aonthip Aorthong, Delta’s Sustainable Development Manager, expressed her gratitude and commitment during the ceremony, saying, "Receiving the Sustainability Disclosure Award for the seventh consecutive year is a testament to Delta’s unwavering dedication to sustainability and transparency. This achievement reflects the collective efforts of our team in driving impactful initiatives, such as carbon management and biodiversity conservation, while ensuring that our reporting aligns with global best practices. As we move forward, we remain committed to advancing our ESG performance and contributing to a sustainable future for all stakeholders."
This year, a total of 144 awards were granted across three categories: 58 Sustainability Disclosure Awards, 57 Sustainability Disclosure Recognitions, and 29 Sustainability Disclosure Acknowledgements. The evaluation criteria, based on the Ceres-ACCA framework, assessed organizations on the completeness (45%), credibility (35%), and communication and presentation (20%) of their sustainability disclosures. Delta’s consistent dedication to transparent reporting and integration of economic, social, and environmental considerations into its business practices placed Delta among the top 58 recipients of the Sustainability Disclosure Award.
Delta’s recognition is attributed to impactful initiatives such as its RE100 and SBTi commitments. These efforts are effectively driven by Delta’s industry leading internal carbon tax policy, which allocates funds to projects that deliver significant advancements in energy efficiency and environmental conservation. These efforts, combined with Delta’s inclusion in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook, underscore the company’s leadership in sustainable business practices. Representing Delta at the award ceremony on November 28, 2024, was Ms. Aonthip Aorthong, Delta’s Sustainable Development Manager.

How Good Design Enables Sustainable PCBs
08/21/2025 | Gerry Partida, Summit InterconnectSustainability has become a key focus for PCB companies seeking to reduce waste, conserve energy, and optimize resources. While many discussions on sustainability center around materials or energy-efficient processes, PCB design is an often overlooked factor that lies at the heart of manufacturing. Good design practices, especially those based on established IPC standards, play a central role in enabling sustainable PCB production. By ensuring designs are manufacturable and reliable, engineers can significantly reduce the environmental impact of their products.
Direct Metallization: A Sustainable Shift in PCB Fabrication
07/31/2025 | Jim Watkowski, Harry Yang, and Mark Edwards, MacDermid Alpha Electronics SolutionsThe global electronics industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the need for more resilient supply chains and environmentally sustainable manufacturing practices. Printed circuit boards (PCBs), the backbone of interconnection for electronic devices, are at the center of this shift. Traditionally, PCB fabrication has relied heavily on electroless copper, a process that, while effective, is resource-intensive and environmentally hazardous. In response, many manufacturers are turning to direct metallization technologies as a cleaner, more efficient alternative.
