Declaration Letter of REACH & RoHS Compliance
About REACH In June 2007, the European Union Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) was first released. Under this Regulation, manufacturers are required to gather information on the properties of their chemical substances, which will allow their safe handling, and to register the information to European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). The aim is to improve the protection of human health and the environment through the better and earlier identification of the intrinsic properties of chemical substances.
About RoHS RoHS Directive (EU Directive 2002/95/EC ) was issued in 2002, restricted the use of the six chemicals lead, cadmium, mercury, and hexavalent chromium, as well as flame retardants polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated dipheny ethers (PBDEs). Under this directive, manufacturers are required to replace these chemicals in their products with less hazardous alternatives.
Then RoHS 2.0 (Directive 2011/65/EU) has replaced Directive 2002/95/EC since January 3, 2013. In 2015, EU commission publishes Directive (EU) 2015/863 to amend Annex II to EU RoHS 2 (Directive 2011/65/EU) to add 4 phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP and DIBP) onto the list of restricted substances from 22 July 2019.
REACH and RoHS Compliance Synology meets all requirements of the REACH Regulation and is compliant to all implemented RoHS type regulations worldwide. To the best of Synology’s knowledge, all Synology products in production (including finished

products, spare parts, and packaging materials) are in compliance with the requirements of the Regulation and/or Directives. Synology continues to monitor, influence, and develop our processes to comply with any proposed changes to the Regulation and/or Directives.
