RoHS Compliance
What is RoHS?
Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS), adopted in February 2003 by the European Union, is intended to reduce the effect of hazardous waste created by electronic products on the environment. The directive took
effect on July 1st, 2006, and places clear restrictions on the
use of six hazardous materials used in the manufacture of electronic
and electrical components.
While each European Union member state has adopted its own enforcement
and implementation policies using the directive as a guideline, the six
substances now restricted are listed across-the-board as lead, mercury,
cadmium, chromium VI, and PBB and PBDE, both of which are used as flame
retardants in some plastics.
The following QSC products are compliant with the RoHS directive:

REACH
The acronym REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, and Authorization of Chemicals. REACH takes precedence over most pre-existing EU Chemical Regulations. The requirements of 76/769/EEC and 67/548/EEC are carried over into REACH. REACH applies to all substances that are used in quantities of greater than 1 tonne per year per importer or producer with an implementation time line that stretches from 2007 to 2018. The responsible party for REACH is the manufacturer (if based in the EU) or the importer. The threshold quantities apply per manufacturer or importer, not per product line.
There are two main scenarios where QSC Audio Products, LLC is affected by REACH. These are:
- The product contains a chemical substance intended to be released during normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of use, such as ink in a pen, and more than one tonne per annum is put onto the EU market.
- The product contains a chemical substance listed as a "Substance of Very High Concern" in a concentration of >0.1% wt/wt. These substances are linked to human health issues or are environmentally "persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic".
QSC has conducted an assessment of the regulations and has determined that our current product offerings do not fall into either category. As new products are designed and released, QSC will continue to monitor the components and subassemblies to ensure compliance.
If you require further information or statements of compliance, please e-mail reg_compliance@qscaudio.com.
