The RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) European directive has been implemented on July,1st, 2006.
This directive - which requires the elimination of lead, mercury, cadnium, hexavalent chronium and the polybrominated biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers flame retardants in certain Electrical and Electronical Equipment put on sale in Europe - is mostly household application orientated.
Although our products and equipment are little or indirectly affected, Schneider Electric's commitment is to be more beyond the directive.
