RoHS Compliance
(RoHS) is a set of EU regulations that implements EU Directive 2002/95 that restricts the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
This directive bans placing on the EU market, any product having an electrical/electronic component containing more than thresholds set for lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants.
RoHS affects any company importing goods containing electrical components into the European Union. Through EVIOCONTROL Laboratory Testing we can help you prepare, implement and comply with RoHS regulations. Through testing services it is allowed to place your products with confidence on the targeted markets.

RoHS Updates
On 31 March 2015 the EC published the Directive 2015/863 which adds four additional substances to RoHS.

The additional four substances* will be applied by 22 July 2019 (except where exemptions permit as stated in Annex II).
