Industry Trends
Around the world there is more focus on the handling and removal
of materials that are hazardous to the environment.
|
- In Europe, an EU directive on Restrictions on the use of
Hazardous Substances (ROHS) requires the elimination of lead in
electronics by July 1, 2006
- In Japan, electronic waste and recycling laws oblige
manufacturers to eliminate or recover their waste products
containing lead
- In the United States, laws banning or restricting the use of
lead are already in place for many products and there is an
increasing demand for a total ban
