ROHS – A G C C E
REAT ONTRIBUTION TO THE ONSERVATION OF NVIRONMENT
The European Union has adopted a directive on the restriction / prohibition of the use of
hazardous substances. This directive, referred to as ROHS, is a frequently discussed topic in
the electronic industry.
It restricts, among other things, six materials: Lead (Pb), Mercury (Hg), hexavalent chromium
(CR VI), cadmium (Cd), polybrimated biphenyls as flame retardant (PBB), polybrominated
diphenyl, also a flame retardant (PBDE). The directive applies to nearly all electronic and
electrical devices whose mode of operation involves electric or electromagnetic fields – in
short: each kind of electronics we have around us in our households or at work.
As manufacturers of products of the brands of AMERICAN AUDIO, AMERICAN DJ, ELATION
Professional and ACCLAIM Lighting, we are obligated to comply with the RoHS directive.
Therefore, as early as two years prior to the directive coming into force, we started our
search for alternative environmentally friendly materials and manufacturing processes.
Well before the RoHS directive took effect, all of our products were manufactured meeting
the standards of the European Union. With regular audits and material tests we can still
assure that the components we use are always RoHS-compliant and that the manufacturing
process, as far as the state of technology allows, is environmentally friendly.
The ROHS directive is an important step to the protection of our environment. We, as
manufactures, feel obligated to make our contribution in this respect.
