RoHS, or the Restriction on the use of Hazardous Substances Directive, is an international standard which aims to minimize human exposure to toxic leakage arising from disposal of electrical/electronic components.

Under the standard, hazardous elements such as Lead and Mercury are not allowed to exceed 0.1% weight (or 1,000 ppm) composition in any electrical component. Cadmium is limited to 0.01% weight (or 100ppm).

Simax provides a wide range of wires and cable harnesses for both manufacturers and consumers; an audit conducted found the levels of hazardous substances in Simax’s products to be well below the maximum allowed by RoHS.

This is in line with Simax’s overall vision to be a competitive provider of eco-friendly materials and products.
