Why is RoHS 3 Compliance Important?

RoHS 3 compliance is crucial for several reasons. By restricting the use of hazardous substances, RoHS helps to:

  • Protect human health: Many of the restricted substances are known to be harmful to human health, causing issues such as developmental problems, cancer, and damage to the nervous system.
  • Safeguard the environment: These substances can also have detrimental effects on the environment, contaminating soil, water, and air. RoHS helps to minimize this environmental impact.
  • Promote sustainable manufacturing: RoHS encourages manufacturers to find safer alternatives and develop more sustainable production processes.
  • Facilitate international trade: By complying with RoHS, ATTO Technology ensures its products can be sold in markets around the world that have adopted this standard.
