Elephantech is pleased to announce its selection for the Demonstration development for Mass Production (DMP) phase of the 4th round of the Deep-Tech Startups Support Program in the Green Transformation field (GX) by NEDO, the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization of Japan. As of August 2025, Elephantech is the first and only company selected in the GX program for the DMP phase. As part of this selection, Elephantech will receive a subsidy of approximately 2.3 billion Yen at most to support its future growth.
The initiative centers around Elephantech’s proprietary low-carbon printed circuit boards (PCBs) manufacturing solution, SustainaCircuits, which aims to establish a mass production system utilizing inkjet printing equipment as manufacturing equipment and copper nano-ink & primer as printing materials.
As PCBs account for a significant portion of the electronics sector’s GHG emissions, making their fabrication greener is essential to achieving carbon-neutral objectives. Elephatech is actively addressing this challenge by improving production efficiency and driving decarbonization across the sector through the adoption of SustainaCircuits at PCB manufacturing facilities.
Building on its novel SustainaCircuits technology, Elephantech has been mass-producing flexible printed circuits in-house and supplying them to major electronics manufacturers. Following the successful development of a general-purpose multilayer PCB in 2024, the company is now expanding beyond in-house production to offer turnkey manufacturing solutions to PCB manufacturers, accelerating broader implementation of SustainaCircuits technology. Going forward Elephantech will continue advancing environmentally responsible growth of the electronics industry through sustainable and innovative technologies.
