Company Description

Jiva Materials Ltd specializes in developing Soluboard®, a material designed to make printed circuit boards fully recyclable. Their patented, competitively priced, and fully recyclable PCB substrate, Soluboard®, aims to rival the industry standard, FR-4. The organic structure of Soluboard® allows for efficient recycling by delaminating non-toxic ingredients in hot water, composting plant-based fibers, disposing of the remaining solution using standard waste water systems, and re-processing electronic components.
