The electronic grey market is a problem that affects not only the end user but also manufacturers and distributors across the electronics industry. This grey market consists of products sold through unauthorised channels, often without the knowledge or consent of the original manufacturer. Although the goods can be genuine, their sale outside of official channels
Reshoring refers to the process of bringing back manufacturing and production activities to a company’s home country after previously outsourcing these operations abroad. For decades, many companies have offshored their manufacturing to countries with lower labour costs, such as China, India, and Vietnam, to reduce expenses. However, reshoring signifies a reversal of this trend, motivated
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are at the heart of most electronic devices, enabling the function of everything from smartphones to industrial equipment. However, the lifecycle of PCBs is becoming ever-shorter, leading to significant amounts of electronic waste (e-waste). Disposing of PCBs improperly can have serious environmental and health consequences due to the hazardous materials they
NAND flash memory, the core technology behind various storage solutions such as SSDs, smartphones, and data centres, has faced significant fluctuations in price in recent years. These price changes are largely influenced by supply-demand dynamics, production costs, and technological advancements. Understanding these trends is crucial for businesses and consumers who rely on NAND flash memory
