Most people use this word to indicate that their products are environmental friendly. I only know for Europe where there are more regulations - also applicable but not limited to EEE products - than RoHS and they also deal with "green". Other manufacturers want to be greener than green and have an internal policy to ban even more substances than those listed in regulations.

RoHS, WEEE, EuP are European Directives within this "green" context and each have their specific standards. Some other people talks about leadfree products and green products, where the latter means RoHS compliant. Best regards, Kris Carpentier Regulatory & Approvals From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of C N Sent: woensdag 19 oktober 2005 3:46 To: [email protected] Subject: Maybe an odd question for EMC-PSTC Anyone know what the actual standard(s) for which the next looming restricted substances standard, "The Green", is? I know enough about RoHS and it's associated WEEE. I also know about the substances and to which levels RoHS versus Green is all about. I've read various articles on and off the web concerning Green. Seen many references to 14001 and OSHA and such in those article regarding Green. But to date, I've seen no specific standard cited regarding Green as I've seen with articles regarding RoHS or WEEE. Anyone know some standard that is Green specific? Regards, Doug McKean - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
