RoHS Directive Limits Use of Hazardous Substances
In 2003, the European Union passed a new directive restricting the use of mercury, lead, cadmium and other potentially hazardous substances in electrical and electronic products. Called the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, the regulation will go into effect July 1, 2006.
Currently, a limited number of Ferraz Shawmut products contain cadmium and lead. We are working to eliminate these substances from our production and will be in full compliance prior to the July 2006 deadline.
