RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) legislation restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in the manufacture of specified types of electrical equipment, with the aim of reducing the environmental impact of waste and improving recyclability.

Whilst this restriction does not legally apply to components, Flex Connectors recognises that component “compliance” is relevant to many of our customers and we have therefore made it part of our policy for corporate social responsibility.

Flex Connectors’ definition of RoHS compliance is that:

• The product does not contain any of the restricted substances in concentrations and applications banned by the Directive,
• And for components, the product is capable of being worked on at the higher temperatures required by lead-free soldering.

All our products are therefore “RoHS compliant” and we have taken all reasonable steps to confirm this. Please contact us if you would like a copy of our Certificate of Compliance.
