REACH Regulation Compliance Testing for Telecom Devices
The Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation is a European Union law designed to protect human health and the environment by reducing the risks related to chemical substances. For IT & Telecom equipment manufacturers, compliance with REACH ensures that they meet regulatory requirements for placing devices on the market in Europe.
Our laboratory provides comprehensive testing services to ensure your telecom devices comply with REACH regulations. This includes a range of tests aimed at identifying potential hazardous substances and ensuring that your products do not contain these regulated chemicals beyond the allowed limits.
The process typically begins with an initial assessment, which helps us understand the specific requirements for your product based on its composition and intended use. From there, we can determine the appropriate tests needed to ensure compliance.
For telecom devices, this could include testing for the presence of restricted substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). Our team uses advanced analytical techniques like Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Once the testing is complete, our experts analyze the data and provide a detailed report outlining any non-compliance issues. If necessary, we can also assist with corrective actions or material substitutions to bring your product into compliance.
We understand that maintaining regulatory compliance is crucial for market access and brand reputation. By partnering with us, you can ensure that your telecom devices meet the stringent requirements set by REACH, thereby minimizing the risk of legal penalties and adverse impacts on your business.
Our commitment to accuracy and reliability means that we consistently deliver high-quality test results within agreed timelines. Our experienced team of chemists and engineers ensures that each step of the testing process is conducted meticulously, from sample preparation to final analysis.
We pride ourselves on providing not just compliance testing but also proactive support for your product development lifecycle. By working with us early in the design phase, you can ensure that potential issues are identified and addressed before they become costly problems later on.
