google/bing/yahoo is your friend. Japan Green is based on the stuff found in JIG-101A; which can be said to be based on RoHS, ELV, and REACH directives. There are several schedules of substances, depending on how they are incorporated into the end product, and the manufacturing process and other things that are not evident to me. ‘Level A’ are subject to currently enacted legislation; ‘Level B’ seems to be for stuff that industry has determined to be relevant for disclosure and may be pending legislation.

Can anyone shed any light on this requirement for Japan. We are EU RoHS compliant but have not pursued any environmental compliance for Japan. We are hoping we can leverage off of our EU RoHS. Please let me know if this is possible or what we are up against. Thank you! Christine - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
