Environmentally relevant substances
The prevailing European legislation provides for constrictions and/or prohibitions in the use of certain substances in products
(e. g. end-of-life vehicles directive 2000/53/EC, RoHS 2002/95/EC, WEEE 2002/96/EC). Moreover, minimum quota for the recycling of disused products
are regulated.
In order to meet with recent requirements, it is indispensable that we know those substances that are environmentally relevant. For this purpose,
we have compiled the "declaration of environmentally relevant substances" for suppliers, containing those substances which are currently categorised
as particularly relevant for the environment.
