What Is RoHS ? The RoHS Directive stands for "the restriction of the use of
certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment". This
Directive bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic
equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury,
hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl
ether (PBDE) flame retardants. The RoHS Directive and the UK RoHS regulations came into force
on 1 July 2006. AWCSL hereby declare that all of our product range complies in full with the RoHS directive
