Review: Joint stand of the network nanoInk at the LOPEC 2025

Under the umbrella of the Cluster Nanotechnology, nanoInk highlighted functional specialty inks, nanodispersions, and coatings with enhanced electrical conductivity, flexibility, and sustainability. Particularly noteworthy were conductive coatings and inks designed for diverse substrates such as glass, textiles, and plastics, enabling applications in smart windows, wearable electronics, and energy-efficient devices. Novel measurement methods for ink characterization and recyclability of printed electronics were also demonstrated, emphasizing the network’s role in advancing precision and sustainability.

Co-exhibitors at the joint booth included

• GSB Wahl GmbH, specialist in industrial printing solutions, with expertise in developing customer specific high-performance ink technologies, and the
• German Institute for Textile and Fiber Research (DITF), which contributed expertise in textile-integrated electronics and sustainable material innovations.

As a contact point for the customer-specific development of special inks and process technologies, many visitors specifically came to the network's joint stand. The high demand and the many valuable contacts emphasize the central importance of the network concept. The presence of market leaders and the focus on sustainability corresponded to the network's priorities, including more environmentally friendly solutions in printed electronics.

Overall, the joint stand at LOPEC 2025 was a great success and strengthened its visibility as a driver of innovation in printed electronics. It not only offered an insight into the latest trends and printed electronics, but also provided fruitful networking opportunities that highlighted the potential for future developments in this exciting field.
