Supplement: 1. What is the RoHS Directive?
A: The EU Parliament and the Council of the European Union in January 2003 adopted the RoHS Directive, the full name is The Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous substances in Electnical and Electronic Equipment, that is, in the Electronic The Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous substances in Electnical and Electronic Equipment Directive, also known as Directive 2002/95/EC, in 2005, the European Union and 2005/618/EC resolution in the form of 2002/95/EC to supplement the maximum limit value of six hazardous substances clearly specified.
2. Why did the EU enact the RoHS Directive?
Answer: First, to set up technical barriers to improve product access thresholds, and second, to strengthen environmental protection to ensure sustainable development.
3. What is the global response to the RoHS Directive?
A: It can be said that countries around the world, especially developed countries, the introduction of RoHS directives on the strong reaction, a high degree of concern, some call it a green directive, some call it a technical barrier directive, there are also called the directive to move the nerves of the global manufacturing industry. In the meantime, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Thailand and other similar directives have been introduced one after another. China is a global manufacturing power, but also a major exporter of products, exports more than 70% of the total amount of RoHS directives involved, so the Chinese government also attaches great importance to related issues, and in 2004 introduced the "electronic information products pollution prevention and control measures", the content of similar RoHS directives, and is ready to synchronize with its implementation. At the same time, through television, newspapers, seminars and other forms of publicity and promotion to the majority of enterprises, reminding the majority of producers must attach great importance to actively respond.
4. What products are covered by RoHS certification?
A: RoHS Directive involves a wide range of products, covering almost all electronics, electrical appliances, medical, communications, toys, security information and other products, which includes not only the whole product, but also the production of the whole machine used in the production of parts and components, raw materials and packaging parts, related to the entire production chain.
5. How to carry out RoHS certification
Answer: Many large-scale enterprises on the RoHS certification of early research, early preparation, and many products have been certified by the RoHS, but there are still many small and medium-sized enterprises are still quite unfamiliar with the RoHS certification, half-understanding, fog, unclear, do not know where to start, I do not know who to look for certification. In fact, RoHS certification is not so mysterious, and people are familiar with the CE, FCC, and other certifications are similar, as long as the appropriate qualifications and capabilities of the third-party notary laboratories can provide similar services for enterprises, is nothing more than to send your products to a professional laboratory for testing, analysis, which lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) and so on. Whether the six hazardous substances meet the requirements of the RoHS Directive, if in line with the RoHS compliance report and certificate can be obtained, if not, you have to find another product to meet the requirements of the alternative.
6. What is the law that determines whether a product is qualified?
A: The main basis for determining whether a product is qualified is the European Commission has issued (2002/95/EC) Directive and 2005/618/EC resolution.
7. Six 2005/618/EC resolutions in electrical and electronic equipment. What are the limit values of hazardous substances?
A: which lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), hexavalent chromium (Cr6+), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) the maximum permissible content of 0.1% (1000 ppm), cadmium (cd) for 0.01% (100 ppm), the limit is the development of the product is in line with the RoHS Directive statutory basis.
8. How can you save money on RoHS certification testing for your entire product?
A: The most important thing is to choose the RoHS Directive-compliant parts and raw materials, the use of advanced production processes, such as procurement has been certified RoHS parts, raw materials, reflow soldering instead of traditional welding, lead-free solder instead of traditional solder, as long as the whole machine using the RoHS Directive-compliant parts and components, the whole of your machine to do the RoHS certification is natural! Save time and money, convenient and fast. In addition, a reasonable and effective split of the certified products can also save a certain amount of money.
9. When is the most appropriate time to do RoHS certification?
A: RoHS Directive mandatory implementation time from today to July 1 next year, only a little more than half a year, therefore, it should be said that the sooner the better, the sooner the more proactive, the later the more passive, in fact, a number of large-scale enterprises with a high degree of sensitivity, have long embarked on this work, one is to specify that the procurement of parts and components, raw materials must be through the RoHS-certified products, the second is to make their own machine products. Secondly, the whole product will be their own RoHS certification, while most domestic and foreign buyers also put forward clear requirements on the manufacturer, where there is no RoHS-certified products are not signed single. Therefore, if your products do not do early certification, will lose the market, in vain regret. In fact, due to the impact of the EU RoHS Directive, Guangdong's mechanical and electrical exports in August and September only two months fell as much as 80%, see "Southern Metropolis Daily" on October 14, 2005, page C02, the title is "Guangdong's mechanical and electrical exports fell sharply.
10. What are the dangers of not having RoHS certified products?
A: Products do not do RoHS certification, will cause incalculable damage to the producer, when your products are unattended, the loss of the market, if your products into the other side of the market by chance, once detected, will be subject to high fines or even criminal detention, which may lead to the closure of the entire enterprise.

(6) testing and verification services for packaging materials;
(7) testing services for six types of plasticizers in plastic materials;
(8) hazardous substance testing and verification services for various types of batteries.
12. How to split and categorize RoHS certified products?
A: According to the RoHS Directive requirements, how to scientifically and reasonably split the entire product categorization, so that the test costs to minimize is also a major learning curve, usually divided into metal, plastic and other materials, metal materials only need to do heavy metal testing (lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium), plastic materials need to do the six prescribed (lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers), other materials need to do brominated diphenyl ethers), other materials only need to do heavy metal testing.
13. How to provide RoHS test samples?
A: Manufacturers before sending products for testing, it is best to send the products for testing in advance to their own detailed splitting, packaging, and respectively, in each package marked with the product name and number, in principle, the weight required for each component testing: 10-20 grams of solids, liquids, 10-20 milligrams.
14. What are the main procedures for applying for RoHS certification?
A: (1) Fill out the RoHS test application form, which can be obtained from our center or downloaded from our website, fill out and return.
