New Environmental Compliance

New RoHS Legislation (in force from 1st July 2008)

Deca Brominated Diphenyl Ether (Deca BDE) in polymeric applications had been exempted from banned list of Perfluorooctane Sulfonates (PBDE)'s under the EU's RoHS Directive.

The ruling in the European Court of Justice on 1st April 2008 ruled against the Commission's decision for Exemption of Deca BDE (2005/717/EC).

In accordance with this decision, Deca BDE is deemed a restricted hazardous substance from 1st July 2008.

Arrow has listed all manufacturers who have confirmed the status of their products on this web link.

Any information given relating to Lead Free and/or RoHS status of any product is based upon Manufacturer's data. Arrow is not authorised to, and does not make any representation on those matters. The data is passed on in good faith and is given without responsibility or liability. The user may wish to verify any information with the Manufacturer before relying on it.

Below is a list of Manufacturers stating either:

  1. No parts use Deca BDE and remain RoHS compliant. (Status confirmed, no exceptions)

    or:

  2. Some parts do use Deca BDE, the class of those affected will be changed to "Non-Compliant" on our documentation. Details of those parts will be available on request. (Status confirmed, with exceptions)
