DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “The Global Market for Green and Sustainable Electronics Manufacturing 2024-2034” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The electronics industry has experienced significant growth in recent years, becoming an integral part of modern life. However, this growth has come at a cost to the environment, with issues like high energy consumption, resource depletion, and electronic waste (e-waste) becoming major concerns.
Waste electronics, in particular, has emerged as the fastest-growing and most hazardous waste stream globally, according to the United Nations. In response to these environmental challenges, there’s a growing need to make electronics manufacturing more sustainable and eco-friendly, leading to the concept of “green electronics.”
One of the areas where sustainability efforts are being concentrated is in the development of sustainable printed circuit board (PCB) designs. Traditional PCB manufacturing processes are known for their energy-intensive and environmentally harmful characteristics, involving materials like copper, epoxy resin, glass fiber, and water. Recycling these materials has proven to be inefficient and labor-intensive.
To address these issues, new materials are being employed in PCB manufacturing that are easily recyclable, including biodegradable polymers and paper-based PCBs. Environmentally friendly etchants are also being utilized in both subtractive and additive manufacturing processes, such as inkjet and laser printing. Additive methods, in particular, have shown significant promise, as they can reduce energy consumption during manufacturing by up to five times compared to conventional methods. Sustainable substrate materials made from various cellulose and wood-based materials, bioplastics, and biocomposites have been developed as well.
“The Global Market for Green and Sustainable Electronics Manufacturing 2024-2034” offers a comprehensive analysis of the global green electronics manufacturing industry. The report covers industry trends, drivers, challenges, approaches, technologies, materials, processes, and leading companies in segments like printed circuit boards (PCBs), integrated circuits (ICs), batteries, assembly, and the electronics supply chain. It provides market revenues and forecasts for sustainable PCBs and ICs, segmented by substrate and process types, up to 2034.
