The Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand (I-EA-T) is a government agency of the Ministry of Industry of Thailand. The responsibilities of the Authority are principally to organize and create industrial estates, grouping together industrial facilities in a synergistic manner. The Authority also has the responsibility of decentralization of industrial activity away from the capital to the outlying provinces of Thailand. The Authority is active in fields of environmental issues, workplace safety, land use, insurance, import and export management and promotion, and factory-related infrastructure development such as water supply, electricity distribution, telephony, shopping, housing and roads.
The Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand currently operates 12 industrial estates and co-manages 26, of Thailand's total of 38 industrial estates. It is located in Bangkok. [1]
