Hello,
I was interested in finding out if suppliers in the electronics sector are being hit with the requests to either provide material content disclosure (giving the full chemical breakdown of the components or materials they supply) or provide a certification statement that they are compliant with the European Union's Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment.
The auto manufacturers chose to collect complete material and chemical disclosure through an electronic database (the International Material Data System, IMDS) in order to deal the End of Life Vehicle Directive. Now it will be interesting to see what happens with the electronics companies as they prepare to deal with the RoHS and WEEE Directives.
If anyone has any information on requests that have been floating around I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Chris Harden
