Packaging Materials are not covered under RoHS

Folks,

I have had a number of questions about Packaging Materials (i.e. the box the electronics comes in) being covered under RoHS. Packaging materials are covered under the European Parliament and Council Directive 94/62/EC of 20 December 1994 on packaging and packaging waste.

So, if your company has been selling EEE in the EU up to now, your packaging materials are probably OK.

Cheers,

Dr. Ron
