Overview As
distributors of electronic components, we are not involved in any aspect of the
manufacture or design of the products we sell; however as part of the supply
chain to our customers, we have worked closely with our Suppliers to ensure
compliance wherever possible by the 1st July 2006 deadline. Some products
stocked by JPR are either exempt from, or outside the scope of RoHS, and so are
unaffected by the directive. We also supply to various industries which are
unaffected by the RoHS directive, and therefore we will continue to stock
certain products which are not RoHS compliant.
It is therefore the users
responsibility to verify the RoHS status of any product. To view or download our RoHS status spreadsheet please click here. Identification Products are
only marked or identified as RoHS compliant where we are confident that all
stocks of that product are fully compliant. Compliant products are indicated on
our RoHS spreadsheet, and identified by the suffix “LFP” on both delivery notes
and invoices.
Website Identification We will soon be updating our website with RoHS compliancy information, the symbols below will appear next to products or order codes.
Where our suppliers have confirmed changes to processes required as a result of the change to RoHS compliant product, we will make this information available upon request. However it will remain the responsibility of each customer to test and verify for themselves that any new products will work with their processes, as JPR Electronics Ltd. cannot accept responsibility for failures.

We therefore advise our customers to verify the current status of the legislation for themselves before implementing any changes. |
