CE-RoHS

RoHS is an EU directive (2002/95/EC) that restricts the use of specific hazardous materials in the manufacturing of electrical and electronic equipment. The main objective of RoHS is to protect human health and the environment by reducing the use of hazardous substances like lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). Manufacturers need to ensure that their products comply with RoHS by having them tested and certified before they can be sold in the EU.
