Stroom is an innovative process for making circuit boards that can take themselves apart in a liquid. It makes it possible to recycle materials efficiently and to reuse electronic components.

Stroom circuit boards can also be built on many different materials, opening doors to new aesthetics and interactions with technology.

Circuit boards are currently made like LEGO® that have been glued together: the only way to recycle them is to destroy them. Stroom is a process that employs alternative techniques to produce highly recyclable circuit boards. In other words: change the way you make, to change the way you break.

Stroom certified circuit boards can take themselves apart. This process is safe, non-destructive, and more sustainable. It makes it possible to efficiently separate materials and to reuse electronics components in new products.

Stroom paves the way for a future in which hybrid materials can incorporate circuits without compromising their recyclability. It brings radically new forms and aesthetics to electronics, transforming the way we interact with technology.
