USA - Biamp reports that all of its products are fully compliant with the China RoHS directive. As of 1 March, 2007, all of Biamp's products are shipping with marking and manual verbiage that comply with all of China's new RoHS laws. Biamp customers will notice all packaging includes the mandatory EPUP logo. This ensures that product will not release any defined hazardous substances, including lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, or brominated fire retardants, says the company.

"We are very proud to announce that we are fully compliant with the new China RoHS directive, ahead of the deadline," said Chuck Gollnick, lead engineer at Biamp. "Our products have not contained many of these harmful substances for a number of years now. With a concentrated effort, we have taken the extra steps needed to ensure all of our products are fully compliant without interrupting service and without imposing additional costs or taxes on our distributors in this region."

Under the China RoHS directive, Biamp will also include a 'Table of Hazardous Substances', printed in Chinese, that identifies where any hazardous substances reside and to what degree. As part of its rigourous testing process, Biamp says it has determined its products will not release any prohibited substances for at least 10 years, if at all.
