RoHS Certification
Restriction of Hazardous Substances
The process of demonstrating that a product or material meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive, prohibiting certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
Understanding RoHS
What is RoHS Certification?
RoHS certification is the process of demonstrating that a product or material meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive. The Directive prohibits the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, placing restrictions on the maximum concentrations permitted.
To obtain RoHS certification, manufacturers must provide evidence through test reports from independent laboratories, declarations of conformity, or certificates issued by third-party certification bodies. The RoHS Directive applies to all EEE placed on the EU market, regardless of origin. Non-compliant manufacturers may face fines and product recalls.
What Products Need RoHS?
The directive covers products such as computers, televisions, digital cameras, and mobile phones. Manufacturers must ensure products carry the CE mark and comply with all relevant EU law provisions before placing them on the market. Compliance is achieved through self-certification.
