FipoRoHS Test: Glass Fiber Textiles Pass Third-Party Screening

Samples taken in September 2023 met every restricted substance limit under the EU RoHS directive and its 2015 amendment.

FipoRoHS Test: Glass Fiber Textiles Pass Third-Party Screening

At a customer's request we sent samples of our glass fiber textiles to a third-party laboratory in September 2023 for RoHS screening, to support the customer's own market compliance review. The reference documents were Directive 2011/65/EU, Annex II, as amended by (EU) 2015/863, commonly called RoHS 2.0.

All restricted substances in the submitted samples were within the limits set by the amended directive. The scope of the submission covered the glass fiber range: yarn, cloth, tape, rope, packing and sleeving. Test reports are available to customers on request; the screening covers composition, not the performance of a finished part in service.
