Our aim is to offer guidance on the ever-changing decision-making processes in the electronics sector and become the "go-to" guide for industry professionals looking to source top components.
A surge in the cost of memory is yet another reason electronics manufacturers must consider investing in designed-for-disassembly sustainable components, warns In2Tec. Tech media is reporting that the scramble for AI dominance and Cloud computing is having a massive impact on prices in the memory market. ComputerBase research suggests the most sought-after high-capacity HDDs are
Across the electronics industry, sustainability has shifted from an emerging topic to an operational priority. More companies are establishing ESG roles, expanding emissions tracking, and preparing for rising regulatory expectations such as CSRD. Yet one question continues to surface across the components ecosystem: ‘Where is the ROI?’ Based on wider market trends and cross-industry data,
Electronics are everywhere. From consumer devices to industrial equipment, printed circuit boards (PCBs) form the core of modern technology. As demand for electronics grows, so does their environmental impact. Designers face a new challenge: creating functional, efficient PCBs while reducing environmental harm. Sustainable PCB design goes beyond recycling or reducing waste. It considers the full
The Electronic Components Industry Association (ECIA) announces the addition of Sluicebox to its Service Partner Programme. The collaboration underscores ECIA’s commitment to fostering innovation and sustainability within the electronics supply chain. Sluicebox is the industry’s first provider of Component Carbon Intelligence – an advanced platform that empowers component manufacturers to automate Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)
In this Q&A, ENNOVI’s Chief Sustainability Officer, Nantha Kumar, discusses how ENNOVI is navigating geopolitical challenges in the current global supply chain amid rising cost, and the strategies for achieving net zero emissions by 2040. How does ENNOVI address challenges in the automotive and e-mobility industries while keeping sustainability goals? The issues around sustainability in
Elmar Kert, Founder of Sluicebox, has spent over 15 years working in climate tech and sustainability. As CPUs, GPUs, and AI began to stretch data centres to their operational limits, Kert became increasingly drawn to the infrastructure challenges these developments posed. This led him to join AWS, where he spent several years focusing on the
As consumer electronics grow ever more sophisticated and pervasive, the strain they place on global resources continues to intensify. From smartphones and laptops to wearables and smart appliances, modern devices require a complex cocktail of mined materials, semiconductors, and polymers, all assembled across global supply chains. In response to increasing pressure from regulators, investors, and
By Mick Elliott, Contributing Editor, Electronic Specifier If the current government sticks to its policies, renewable energy, and specifically onshore and offshore wind energy are set for rapid growth. Up to 13 major offshore wind projects were recently unlocked as the government announced measures to accelerate the construction of offshore infrastructure. The consenting process is
On June 11-12th, 2025, Waldom Electronics joined global sustainability leaders at the E-Waste World Expo in Frankfurt – a gathering focused on building more circular, responsible, and transparent electronics systems. As the event unfolded, one thing became clear: the electronic components industry still isn’t fully part of the mainstream circularity conversation. As the only representative
In an industry built on precision, performance, and compliance, the electronics components sector has long operated under globally recognised quality standards – from ISO 9001 to RoHS and REACH. But when it comes to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices, the same clarity is missing. As pressure increases from regulators, investors, and customers, companies across
