The Global Market for Green and Sustainable Electronics Manufacturing 2024-2034

The electronics industry has witnessed massive growth over the past few decades, with electronic devices becoming an integral part of modern life. However, this growth has also led to significant environmental impacts, including high energy consumption, resource depletion, and electronic waste (e-waste). According to the UN, waste electronics is the fastest growing and most hazardous waste stream globally. This has resulted in an increasing need to make electronics manufacturing more sustainable and environmentally friendly, leading to the emergence of "green electronics" as an approach to reducing the electronics industry's environmental footprint.

Development of sustainable printed circuit board (PCB) designs has grown recently as part of the push for green manufacturing. Traditional PCB manufacturing relies on energy intensive and high-emission processes that involve copper, epoxy resin, glass fiber, and water that are harmful to the environment. Recycling techniques have low efficiency and include laborious processes.

New materials are being utilized that are easily recyclable, and biodegradable polymers and paper PCBs are used in PCB manufacturing. Environmentally friendly etchants for existing subtractive processes and additive manufacturing such as inkjet and laser printing is also increasingly utilized. By employing additive methods, energy consumption during manufacturing can be even five times less than with conventional methods. Sustainable and printable substrate materials including different cellulose and wood-based materials, bioplastics, and biocomposites have been developed.

The Global Market for Green and Sustainable Electronics Manufacturing 2024-2034 provides a comprehensive analysis of the global green electronics manufacturing industry.
