RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) Ensuring banned substances, no matter the quantity, do not make their way into your products. Even if you purchase commodity goods.
Because RoHS extends throughout the entire supply chain, it could very well affect non-European businesses. Both are starting to be pushed in the US, and may actually be in place in the near future (within 5 years).

RoHS. Chromium 6, which is a reportable substance, had to be changed to a Trivalent. As we changed over to the Tri chromates we are finding that in the lab of the suppliers the corrsion resistance is very high, better tha hex (chromium 6) but in production runs the results are half of the stated results. How fun, automotive is going off of tests from the labs when in production we can not achieve the same results. I thought it was just us but the supplier say we are not the only one. Here I go again ... but change has a good and bad side to it. Love or hate it RoHS is here to stay.
