Certificate description

RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances, and RoHS certificates are documents that certify that a product complies with the European Union's Directive 2011/65/EU on the Restriction of Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE).

The RoHS directive restricts the use of certain hazardous substances, including lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, and certain flame retardants, in EEE products sold within the European Union. The aim of the directive is to reduce the impact of EEE on human health and the environment, and to encourage the development of more sustainable products.

RoHS certificates are typically issued by manufacturers or importers of EEE products, after they have completed a conformity assessment procedure to demonstrate that their products comply with the RoHS directive. The certificate confirms that the product does not contain any of the restricted substances above the permitted limits and that the product meets the requirements of the RoHS directive.

RoHS certificates are important for companies that manufacture or import EEE products and sell them within the European Union. They provide assurance to regulators, customers, and other stakeholders that the products are safe and comply with the relevant regulations. The certificates also help companies to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices.
