Carbon Neutral Circuit Board coming in 2022

AISLER, the electronics industry’s most affordable electronics manufacturing service, announced its plans to ship the first worldwide carbon neutral circuit board by the end of 2022. The announcement came at the World Ethical Electronics Forum (WEEF 2021) and AISLER commented that they aim to be at forefront of decarbonating the development process of the electronics products of tomorrow.

Carbon neutral circuit board plans

Starting next year, AISLER will use its service to reduce the impact on the environment. The brand plans to ship its first carbon-neutral circuit boards at the end of 2022 with its Beautiful Boards product. Together with the German Fraunhofer IZM, AISLER will first sum up their carbon footprint, to then identify proper measures to reduce the product footprint down to zero.

“By design, we have a much lower carbon footprint because we only manufacture locally. To make this affordable, we employ automation which allows us to achieve best-in-class production yields and lower costs. This alone however does not save us; everyone in our society needs to identify how we can jointly contribute to a carbon-neutral future,” said Felix Plitzko, CEO and Co-Founder of AISLER.

AISLER serves engineers as a convenient one-stop-shop for circuit boards, parts, stencils and assembly to develop the products of tomorrow.

“The best way we can contribute is to help our customers with decarbonating their development process. With nearly 50,000 engineers as our customers, this is where we as a company have the best leverage and can contribute the most. The engineer should be in the driver seat of their supply chain and make their environmental contribution as easy as a snap,” Plitzko further elaborated. AISLER also plans to go fully carbon neutral by the end of 2023.
