If you supply electrical, electronic, automotive, telecom, or industrial components, your buyers will ask one question before doing business:
“Are your products RoHS compliant?”
Without RoHS, you cannot sell in Europe (EU), UK, Gulf countries, and most global supply chains. Major OEMs reject suppliers who fail RoHS compliance due to environmental risk and legal liability.
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) is a European Union directive (EU 2015/863) that restricts the use of 10 hazardous materials in electrical and electronic products.
These restricted substances are:
Restricted Substance | Maximum Limit |
Lead (Pb) | 0.1% |
Mercury (Hg) | 0.1% |
Cadmium (Cd) | 0.01% |
Hexavalent Chromium (Cr6+) | 0.1% |
Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB) | 0.1% |
Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE) | 0.1% |
DEHP | 0.1% |
BBP | 0.1% |
DBP | 0.1% |
DIBP | 0.1% |
RoHS ensures products are safe for users, environmentally responsible, and globally accepted.
RoHS is mandatory for companies involved in:
✅ Electronics & Electrical Components
✅ PCB & PCB Assembly Manufacturers
✅ Wire & Cable Manufacturing
✅ Automotive Electrical Parts
✅ Consumer Electronics
✅ Battery & Power Supply Manufacturers
✅ Industrial Control Panels
✅ LED & Lighting Systems
✅ Home Electrical Appliances
✅ Telecommunication Devices
✅ Medical Electrical Equipment (Limited Scope – RoHS applies where allowed by regulation)
If you export or work with European clients or multinational OEMs, RoHS is essential.
