RoHS Compliance

All Brainboxes Serial and Bluetooth products are fully RoHS compliant.
Brainboxes identified at an early stage the importance of rapid compliance to RoHS guidelines and
established a project team to actively manage the transition. The initial step in the process was to
use our close relationships with suppliers to ensure early access to RoHS compliant components for
all of our Bluetooth and Serial Products. In addition, the project team worked to ensure that our
manufacturing processes meet all RoHS requirements well in advance of the deadline.
To verify supplier declarations on RoHS compliancy, we have also sent fully built products to an
external test house for X-Ray system XDAL. This technique is capable of determining percentages of
different elements and is accurate to 0.1% Wt.
RoHS Compliant Brainboxes products have been available since January 2005.
