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.
