PNY Asia Product Packages are RoHS certified

PNY Technologies, the leading manufacturer of memory products and PC peripherals,has always ensured that their manufactured products are image001created to operate under environmentally safe materials and feature low power consumption technology. PNY’s Asia product packages are ROHS compliant and go through stringent testing to assure delivery of high quality and reliability.

The definition and aim of the RoHS directive is quite simple. RoHS, which originated in Europe, aims to restrict certain dangerous substances commonly used in electronic and electronic equipment. Any RoHS compliant component is tested for the presence of Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd), Mercury (Hg), Hexavalent chromium (Hex-Cr), Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). For Cadmium and Hexavalent chromium, there must be less than 0.01% of the substance by weight at raw homogeneous materials level. For Lead, PBB, and PBDE, there must be no more than 0.1% of the material, when calculated by weight at raw homogeneous materials. Any RoHS compliant component must have 100 ppm or less of mercury and the mercury must not have been intentionally added to the component. The restricted materials are hazardous to the environment and pollute landfills, and are dangerous in terms of occupational exposure during manufacturing and recycling.

In PNY products, are striving to eliminate the use of heavy metals and toxic substances. PNY ensures that its suppliers restrict or eliminate use of these hazardous chemicals, and we work closely with regulatory organizations to report this information. Our products are made with 100% environmental safe materials which consume less power than other gadgets and can also be easily recycled.
