The Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
Directive 2002/95/EC Compliance Policy

The Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC of the European Parliament stipulates that certain hazardous substances must not be present above defined levels in electrical and electronic products after July 1st 2006 with some product exceptions.

Taber Industries – Materials Test and Measurement instruments fall into the monitoring and control instruments classification (category 9) and as stated in Article 2, are exempt from this directive.  Products which are mechanical are not covered by the RoHS Directive.

Taber Industries is committed to a clean environment and is working towards voluntary RoHS compliance.  We recognize that some countries outside the EU have adopted the RoHS list of hazardous material to restrict their use in electrical and electronic products without accepting the product exceptions.  Taber is working towards all of our Material Test and Measurement products being declared RoHS Compliant as soon as possible.
