Halogen-free PCB materials are eco-friendly dielectrics that eliminate hazardous toxins while meeting sustainability standards without compromising performance. Halogen-based laminates can release toxic fumes during combustion or disposal, but halogen-free alternatives significantly reduce health and environmental risks. If you’re a PCB designer, product engineer, compliance officer, electrical engineer, or EMS provider planning to introduce a new product, consider choosing halogen-free dielectric materials. This supports both regulatory compliance and sustainability goals. It also helps build brand trust as the electronics industry is transitioning towards eco-friendly products. Halogen-free materials reduce health and environmental risks. They do this without compromising electrical performance. That makes…
