Are you compliant with the new RoHS2 phthalate substance restrictions?
- Electrical and electronic equipment which contains more than 0.1% of the phthalates DEHP, BBP, DBP or DIBP in any homogenous material will be banned from the European market from 22 July 2019, with an exemption for medical devices and monitoring and control instruments until 22 July 2021.
- This presentation will demonstrate how you can use the EN IEC 63000 standard (which is effectively the same as the EN 50581 standard) to manage RoHS2 compliance across your supply chains and to generate the RoHS2 Technical Files for your products to provide to your customers and regulators on request
