Environmental and human health problems have become increasingly serious due to the rapid developments in technology and communication. Many organizations in the world are focusing more on these problems and trying to find solutions. The damage caused by many products to human and environment is felt in the long term. Although the companies that seek profit, in the short term, achieve this to a large extent, today they are in great responsibility because of their products, whose results do not appear immediately but which create serious risks in the long run.

A number of studies by the World Health Organization confirm these results. The Council of Europe issued a RoHS directive in 2003 (directive for restricting the use of certain harmful substances), showing sensitivity to these developments.

RoHS directive The aim is to prevent environmental and health problems that may be caused by electronic devices or electrically operated goods. In our country, the Regulation on Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE Regulation for short) was prepared in 2008 based on this directive. In this way, in the production of many electrical and electronic devices used in daily life, it is aimed to prevent the use of harmful substances or at least to be used below certain values. At the same time, it is aimed to make necessary controls of such vehicles to be brought from abroad.

Producers who comply with these principles and wish to create a competitive advantage for themselves by applying to a certification body RoHS Certificate demand. Having this certificate of course adds a lot of value to the manufacturers. For example,

  • They prove their value to human health.
  • It proves that they are sensitive to the environment and that they produce in accordance with environmental conditions.
  • It proves that they make production to make recycling of such product wastes possible.
  • It has proven that the dangerous elements listed minimize the interaction during the use of the products.
  • As a company, it increases its market reputation and image.
  • It has achieved a significant competitive advantage both at home and abroad.

Having RoHS Certificate has a different importance especially for companies doing business with European Union countries. Companies that send goods to these countries need to know the RoHS directives, produce accordingly and prove this by obtaining a certificate. Production processes should be coordinated and controlled accordingly. This will, of course, limit production activities that pose a danger to human health and the environment. But more importantly, it will increase the level of trust towards the consumer. It is also a social and conscientious responsibility to produce products where the use of restricted elements is never used or within the allowed values.
