Soluboard

Printed circuit boards feature in ever more of our products and they contribute to one of the world’s fastest growing waste streams.

Jiva’s Soluboard is a non-toxic, fully recyclable alternative to the epoxy resin and fibreglass of conventional circuit boards. Soluboard dissolves in hot water, leaving a residue of compostable natural fibres, water that can go down a domestic drain, and electronic components for recycling.

If fully implemented on a global scale, the material could reduce the carbon footprint of the printed circuit board industry by 60 per cent.
