Soldertec Global, part of ITRI Innovation, is a leading authority on the implementation of lead-free soldering technology and specialises in testing of components and materials for compliance with the EU-RoHS Directive.
We now extend this service to help companies prepare for the China-RoHS regulations. Be aware that China-RoHS has many different requirements to EU-RoHS. 
Will you need to comply with China-RoHS?
If you sell an electronic product in China the answer is probably yes. Although it is commonly referred to as China-RoHS the Ministry of Information Industry of China (MII) standard is called the Control of Pollution caused by Electronic Information Products.
How can Soldertec help?
1. From 1st March 2007 China-RoHS has a labelling requirement to indicate the presence (or lack of) restricted substances. Product manuals will need to include a spreadsheet listing the location of all hazardous substances, in Chinese. Soldertec can help find these materials and produce a spreadsheet in Chinese for inclusion in your product manual. Find out more
2. At a date to be confirmed the Chinese authorities will published a catalogue that will list all Electronic Information Products that are required to be free of all restricted substances. Testing is mandatory and is required to be carried out in an authorised Chinese laboratory. Soldertec is in a unique position to facilitate this testing through partnership agreements with approved Chinese laboratories. Find out more
3. Pre-certification testing is advisable before shipping to China for the mandatory testing. Soldertec is experienced in testing for these restricted materials using our established EU-RoHS Assurance test programme and can offer a pre-certification service. Find out more
