RoHS

RoHS is an EU directive restricting the use of specific hazardous materials in electronic and electrical equipment (EEE). It limits substances like lead, mercury, cadmium, and certain flame retardants in manufactured products. The directive aims to protect human health and the environment from toxic electronic waste. Compliance is mandatory for EEE products imported into or manufactured for the European market. Manufacturers must ensure their components and processes adhere to strict material composition limits. RoHS promotes greener product design and more sustainable recycling practices for electronics.
