Automobiles, automotive parts or materials
subject to ELV directive cannot be exported to the EU unless they
contain no cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg) or Hexavalent Chromium
(Cr6+) beyond specified limits. Similarly, with the RoHS (Restriction of
Hazardous Substance in Electrical and Electronic Equipment), and WEE
Directives, the use of electric and electronic equipment containing any
of the six specified hazardous substances that are two kinds of
brominated flame retardants - polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and
polybrominated diphenyl ether (PDBE) and in addition Cd, Pb, Hg, and
Cr6+ beyond their limits will be prohibited. Both automobiles and
electric/electronic equipments include a very large number of parts,
which are made using a wide variety of materials and substances.
Therefore, it becomes the total responsibility of part manufacturers
across the entire supply chain to control the content of these six
hazardous substances in a product. |
