Soft & Flexible Electronics
We design custom heaters, sensors and more
The Loomia Electronic Layer
Our Mesh-Based Alternative to Printed Electronics
-
More flexible than a Flex PCB with up to 50% stretch for serpentine designs.
-
40% improvement in conductivity over printed ink on TPU with less deviation between units. Traces will not crack and resistance doesn’t change when units are stretched.
-
Silver-free conductors available for improved sustainability and no heavy chemical etchants used in production.
-
Available at up to 20,000 units a week in an ISO 13485- and ISO 9001-certified facility. Units can cost as low as $.05 per square inch.
-
Our Circuits are built for integration — no plastic housing needed. It can work with termination and trim of your choice.
