Why is Ecliptek transitioning to RoHS (Pb-Free) components and assemblies?
Ecliptek has implemented a RoHS Compliant, Lead-Free (Pb-free) Program in response to concerns about the environmental impact of Lead (Pb) and other hazardous substances used in the manufacturing of electronic components and assemblies. Regulatory groups around the world have initiated legislation calling for companies to utilize Pb-free manufacturing processes and components. Because of this legislation, many of our customers are now requesting products that utilize Pb-free manufacturing processes and components which are compliant to the RoHS standard.
