Intertek RoHS Certification Process 

  1. Documentation Review
    • Bill of Materials, assembly drawings, material declarations, test reports, Certificates of Conformance, etc.
     
  2. Process Audit
    • Verify manufacturing processes related to RoHS compliance
    • Identify High Risk Materials
     
  3. Lab Testing
    • High Risk Materials that can not be verified using XRF screening are sent to an Intertek laboratory for testing to determine the maximum concentration values of the six RoHS substances [lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium (Cr6+), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and polybrominated diphenylether (PBDE)]
     
  4. Product Certification
