95% LESS CARBON FOOTPRINT

The organic structure of Soluboard means the non-toxic ingredients delaminate when immersed into hot water. This allows the organic fibres to be composted, the water to be disposed of using standard domestic wastewater systems and the electronic components to be recycled.

By introducing a water-based recycling process, carbon emissions will be greatly reduced and the recycling industry would see higher yields of precious metal recovery if Soluboard became widely adopted. Recycled metals can see up to a 95% smaller carbon footprint in comparison to newly processed raw materials.

Soluboard® will be integrated into the supply chain of customers who already offer take-back schemes or operate within the circular economy. This will therefore allow the manufacturers of the products to sell their old products to electronic waste handlers at a higher price and therefore subsidise the costs of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment disposal.
