European Regulation REACH EC 1907/2006 European Community Regulation No. EC 1907/2006 dated December 18, 2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical substances (REACH) With the publication of the candidate list (article 59 REACH), 28th of October 2008 and continuous additions according to article 33(1) of the REACH-Regulation as per June 2012, suppliers are obligated to inform their industry-customer in the EU about the presence of «Substances of very high concern, SVHC» in its products. This is relevant as soon as their concentration in the products would be higher than 0.1 Mass-%. Suppliers of such goods have to provide sufficient information to their customer to ensure a safe handling. In minimum this should contain the name of the substance. EAO is a global supplier of electrical and electronic switch products and switch accessories, keypads, keyboards, control panel assemblies and CAN interfaces for Transportation, Machinery, Telecommunications, Process Control, Lifting and Moving and Automotive. During the use of our products, they do not set free critical substances. In the attached table(s) it is shown, if the delivered goods containing one or more of such substances, higher than 0.1 Mass-%. Base for the calculation is the weight of the complete product. Detailed product-information (material of sub-components, its weight, CAS-Number, etc) is available with cost per request. Yours sincerely
