Product Description

With an aim of reducing the negative environmental impact of product, minimizing toxicity, and setting reuse, recycling, and recovery targets, the European Community enacted legislation in the form of the Restrictions on the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directives. These Directives restrict the use of certain hazardous chemicals and require waste management of electrical and electronic equipment throughout the product life cycle.

What is the RoHS Directive?
The objective of the RoHS Directive (2002/95/EC), effective 1 July 2006, is to restrict the use of six hazardous chemicals in electrical and electronic equipment. It is a requirement to design equipment taking into account the facilitating and dismantling and recovery at the end of product life. Overview information about the scope of the Directives is highlighted below:

Hazardous Substance / Maximum Concentration Value (in each homogenous material)

> Lead (Pb) 0.1%
> Mercury (Hg) 0.1%
> Hexavalent Chromium (Cr(VI)) 0.1%
> Cadmium (Cd) 0.01%
> Polybrominated biphenyl flame retardants (PBB) 0.1%
> Polybrominated diphenyl ether flame retardants (PBDE) 0.1%

Who Must Comply
- Manufacturers and importers need to ensure that their electrical electronic equipment products, and the components of these products, comply with the requirements.
- The Directive also applies to those who export to Member States and to those who rebrand other manufacturers’ electrical and electronic equipment as their own.
- Retailers are considered to be the manufacturer when they are distributing their own brands under direct sourcing.
