About Viroj Khanampornpan : Mr. Viroj Khanampornpan is the founder and CEO of Applied Innotech Plus Co., Ltd., Thailand. A lifelong inventor and problem-solver, he has dedicated his career to creating practical innovations that simplify daily living and enhance electrical safety. His works include a secure safety plug, a multi-functional folding table with hidden caster wheels, and the revolutionary 3-in-1 SMART Spring LED Tube Lamp Holder — the world’s first universal LED T8 holder compatible with G5, G13, and Fa8 pins. Beyond lighting design, Mr. Viroj also explores sustainable reuse concepts, such as transforming discarded PET water bottles into modular, jigsaw-like components for floating, piping, and netting applications. These ideas reflect his ongoing commitment to human-centered innovation, resource efficiency, and a greener world.
STATEMENT OF ART:
“Design is a living process — when I see something new, I think about how to make it safer, easier, or more useful.”
Mr. Viroj’s design philosophy centers on positive curiosity: understanding how things work, improving them, and finding better alternatives. This approach led to his signature creations — from the Nirapai Safety Plug to the Magic Folding Table, and most recently, the 3-in-1 SMART Spring LED Tube Lamp Holder.
His works unite safety, sustainability, and comfort through elegant mechanical design. He believes innovation should empower users with simplicity and joy — “Safety, ease, comfort, and happy living for all.”
“Invention is my lifelong art form — transforming everyday needs into practical, safe, and sustainable solutions. Each design reflects care for people and the environment, connecting engineering logic with human comfort.”
