China RoHS
Restriction of hazardous substances in electrical products
China RoHS restricts lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium and the brominated flame retardants PBB and PBDE in electrical and electronic products. It applies in two stages: marking and disclosure for all products in scope, and a conformity assessment requirement for the products listed in the China RoHS catalogue.
Products in the catalogue must be covered by certification or by a self-declaration supported by testing before they are placed on the China market. The catalogue is expanded periodically — 23 further product types were added in the most recent revision.
What we do
- Scope check against the current China RoHS catalogue
- Material declarations and supplier data collection
- Testing of homogeneous materials in accredited laboratories
- Certification or self-declaration filing, whichever route applies
- Marking and disclosure table for the product and the manual
Already hold EU RoHS evidence? Much of it can be reused, but the marking, the disclosure table and the conformity route are specific to China. We review what you have before proposing any new testing.
