The iPack Center is a VINNOVA Centre of Excellence established at KTH (Royal Institute of Technology) in Stockholm, funded over a ten-year period (2007-2016) by VINNOVA, KTH and partners from industry.

The center is a multi-disciplinary research platform and meeting place that establishes collaborations between Swedish forest products industry, electronic industry, in area of intelligent packaging and hybrid media.

The center develops core technologies for heterogeneous integration of bio-medical sensors, energy supplies, computing and wireless communications on fiber-based packaging and paper-boards, for innovative products such as smart bio-paper, intelligent pharmaceutical packaging and storage, intelligent patient monitoring devices.

The center coordinates around 10 multi-disciplinary research groups within KTH and the reserach institute - Innventia, and over almost 20 Swedish companies including paper and package companies (StoraEnso, Billerud, Korsnas etc), RFID and printed intelligence (e.g. Xaar) and electronic and system companies (NOTE, Imsys and Catena etc). Public actor in this center is VINNOVA. The research explores multi-disciplinary innovations encompassing self-powered ultra-low cost RFID, paper-based bio-medical sensors, printed energy cells and interactive paper functions, low cost manufacturing and integration technologies as well as manufacturability aspects.

Nano ePrint was formed in 2006 following pioneering research at the University of Manchester in the UK. Nano ePrint's technology enables planar nanoelectronic circuits that can uniquely be fabricated in a single layer of semiconductor via single-step patterning. Nano ePrint's devices achieve very high speeds while dramatically reducing circuit size and simplifying manufacture. Nano ePrint has also developed a configurable circuit architecture to deliver the world's first printed programmable logic circuits, allowing one circuit to simultaneously address multiple applications. The Nano ePrint approach opens up prospects for low-cost, high-performance printed electronics across a wide range of market opportunities.

NanoIntegris Technologies, a Raymor subsidiary, is a world leading provider of premium nano-carbon materials such as single-wall carbon nanotubes, graphene, and high mobility semiconductor inks. Our inks are formulated for inkjet and aerosol printers and used in the development of the next generation of high mobility transistors for sensing, logic and display driver applications. Using a patented plasma technology, Raymor Industries synthesizes single-wall carbon nanotubes at industrial scale and with superior quality for transparent conductive and ESD applications. Standing behind over 450 academic publications our materials were recognized with the Best Technical Development Materials Award at PE USA 2014.

NanoMicro-Systems Laboratory is a research lab in Konkuk University, Korea, and has developed a novel Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) inkjet print-head and integrated printing system, which allows us to eject fine (micron to sub-micron scale) droplets by drop-on-demand operation and create products of printed electronics or photovoltaic devices such as display(LCD, OLED), RFID, smart tag, organic solar cell, and DNA arrays. The EHD inkjet technology based on the direct manipulation of liquid by an electric field, instead of by indirect pumping, enables ejection of micron to sub-micron scale droplets, direct fabrication of various structures like electrode or dielectric layer, and direct deposition of functional fluids.

Recently, NanoMicro-Systems Lab founded a lab-venture company, named EnJet Inc., Ltd., which provides EHD inkjet printheads and systems. EnJet Inc. develops MEMS-based innovative EHD inkjet head, which enables to pattern multilayer and very fine geometry and create a solution of inkjet printing system and technology.

Researchers at NUI Galway and Trinity College Dublin have developed a tunable, high aspect ratio, triangular-plate-shaped silver nanoparticle conductive ink, production-ready and already in pilot production in batch quantities on a pilot manufacturing line. A company promotion team is in the process of commercialising this technology. ArgentInkTM is a general purpose high electrical conductivity, low silver loading conductive ink suitable for all applications in printed electronics. The uniquely strong local surface plasmon resonance associated with its triangular nanoplates offers additional potential for third generation photovoltaics. Related products based on this technology have proven superior antimicrobial properties for wound care.
