Update on China RoHS

China RoHS Standards Active March 1st 2007
29 May 2006—When China’s version of RoHS becomes active on March 1 2007, four standards must be met:

  • “Concentration Limits” of hazardous substances,
  • “Marking” to indicate the presence of hazardous substances, as well as a safe-to-use period and the packaging material;
  • “Testing Procedures” and;
  • a “Catalogue” of products which are subject to substance restrictions and mandatory certification.
Since earlier this month, two of those standards, ‘Concentration Limits’ and “Marking’ have been ready for approval by the Ministry of Information Industry. The maximum concentration values defined in the standard on ‘Concentration Limits’ will only apply to EEE listed in the yet-to-be defined Catalogue. All other products may exceed the limits.
