Therefore, as early as two years priorto the directive coming into force, we started our search for alternative environmentally friendly materials andmanufacturing processes.Well before the RoHS directive took effect, all of our products were manufactured meeting the standards of theEuropean Union. With regular audits and material tests we can still assure that the components we use arealways RoHS-compliant and that the manufacturing process, as far as the state of technology allows, isenvironmentally friendly.The ROHS directive is an important step to the protection of our environment. We, as manufactures, feelobligated to make our contribution in this respect.
