The importance of producing in RoHS standard and the benefits provided by the manufacturer and employees as well as human health and environmental conditions electrical and electronic goods manufacturing companies. These companies will always have the advantage of having RoHS Certificate while struggling with their competitors, trying to gain superiority in the market and trying to create a solid image for themselves.

Companies that produce electrical and electronic products prefer the elements and chemicals that the RoHS directive deems dangerous and harmful to use because they are suitable for production purposes. However, from now on, in order to protect human health and the environment, they should not use these substances at all.

On the other hand, there is no search for other substances to replace these substances. Other alternative solutions are offered in place of these dangerous and harmful substances used by companies producing electrical and electronic goods. Although there are some difficulties for manufacturers, it is inevitable to turn to these solutions. These alternative suggestions and their disadvantages are briefly explained below:

  • Instead of using lead and tin solder, it is recommended to use solder containing tin and other metal components. However, much higher heat is required to melt the solder without lead.
  • Instead of silver and cadmium oxide, the use of silver and tin oxide is suggested. In this case, however, the same efficiency cannot be achieved in the contacts. In some cases, the service life of the products is shortened.
  • It is recommended to use gold-plated contacts instead of mercury contacts. However, their lifespan is much shorter.
  • Various materials can be used instead of hexavalent chrome. However, their effects are lower.
  • Various materials may be used instead of PBB and PBDE. However, more material is required to achieve the same effect.

However, there will be different solutions.

RoHS standard after obtaining such an application, an approval report to be obtained as a result of tests and analyzes in a laboratory and a certification institution RoHS Certificate can be requested. What is important here is the selection of the certification body. The certification body must be accredited by a national or international competent body. Otherwise, the document to be imported does not represent a value.

The certification body conducts the examination and evaluation on the technical file containing the approval certificate issued by the laboratory and prepares and delivers the RoHS Certificate to the manufacturer company as appropriate. The validity of this document is five years. At the end of this period, the same path must be followed and the document renewed.
