With the REACH deadlines approaching and the industry moving to Halogen-free products, identification is paramount for the electronics industry.
Initially, Total Parts Plus will identify the proposed 15 SVHC candidates and will track any additional substances as they are approved. Halogen-free products will be easily identified and tracked for reporting purposes. Users will be able to submit any board-level electronic component through Total Parts Plus? web application and generate the named material, weights and measures required for REACH reporting.
