RoHS - Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive

This single market directive applies in the same way to all EU member states and must not be interpreted differently.
The directive restricts or prohibits the use of hazardous substances such as lead, mercury, and phthalates, and defines limit values for certain ingredients in electrical and electronic equipment. 
These include large and small household appliances, IT and telecommunications devices, consumer electronics devices, lighting fixtures, electrical and electronic tools, toys and sports and leisure devices, automatic output devices, and electric light bulbs and household lights.

RoHS compliance is also a prerequisite for CE marking for an electrical product.

For our chainflex cables, this means the following:

Our chainflex cables are manufactured without the ingredients prohibited in the RoHS3 directive. Among other things, we do not use hazardous plasticisers such as lead. We strictly comply with the directive, developing jacket materials that meet the applicable RoHSII/III requirements and testing them in our laboratory. This ensures that our chainflex cables are, among other things, lead-free and can be produced without harmful plasticisers.
