Why is LightingEurope issuing a public statement on RoHS?
LightingEurope staff and members regularly receive requests for clarification regarding the timeline of the RoHS-related lamp phase-outs. Last autumn, LightingEurope issued a public statement concerning the changes to the Mercury Regulation. The organization now aims to shift focus to the upcoming RoHS exemption renewals.
Objectives of the statement:
- To emphasize and clarify for the market how RoHS expiry dates are applied
- To provide details on the expiration of certain exemptions and outline LightingEurope’s renewal plans
- To address the status of lead exemptions alongside mercury exemptions
