Xmultiple
is committed to working with the International Community
towards manufacturing with non-toxic materials in our connectors.
In the manufacturing of our component modules we are eliminating
Cadmium, Lead and Halogen. Xmultiple is continuously improving
and minimizing our environmental footprint.
The
new RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) applies to the same restricted
substances as the original Directive and includes a wider
scope. Three categories were added and now there are eleven
categories in total.

Xmultiple
provides EU and China RoHS status for every part number
on our product sheets.
Xmultiple
displays the RoHS status at the top of all our product sheets.
The
purpose of RoHS is to reduce the influence of these substances
on the ecosystem and to contribute to the overall preservation
of the global environment. Companies throughout the electronics
industry, either through ISO or through their own initiatives,
are implementing programs intended to limit and eliminate
certain substances used in the manufacture of semiconductor
devices. Xmultiple has implemented RoHS programs and offer
RoHS on all of our connectors.
Customers
and manufacturers are focused on device assembly to ensure
compliance with environmental regulations. Two directives
from the European Union called "Waste from Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)" and "Restriction
of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)" will restrict the use
of lead and other materials in electronic component products.
These mandated directives will take effect beginning July
1, 2006.

China
RoHS and Xmultiple's Compliance Policy?
China RoHS has two distinct phases in its directive which
are listed below.
1.
China RoHS Phase One requires labeling of end item Electronic
Information Products (EIPs) with an Environmental Protection
Use Period (EPUP). The China RoHS directive has a hazardous
material chart showing the six substances registered which
should not be above the threshold values. The China RoHS
requirement went into effect for all end item EIP manufactured
after March 1, 2007.
2.
China RoHS Phase Two has a requirement of maximum concentration
values for all products that are identified. China has not
release the catalog of the levels or concentrations. Xmultiple
will comply as the China RoHS list is made available.
The
current China RoHS requirement is listed in this Xmultiple
China RoHS statements only to provide information. Xmultiple
will publish reports and label our products for the presence
of the six hazardous substances if after the list is published
we are above the threshold values. Chinese is expected to
publish their catalogs within twelve months. Therefore,
please note there is no current restrictions on the sale
of connectors and components products exceed these limits.
