Introduction

Keep up to date with the ever increasing amount of environment product legislation that is now emerging from many countries. Knowing and preparing for this legislation has become a essential requirement for those companies selling products globally. Failure to abide by country requirements can result in companies not being able to place their products on the market and facing the risk of heavy fines or prison sentances. In China for instance all products falling under the scope of the 'Management Methods for Controlling Pollution by Electronic Information Products' will have to have labels showing hazardous material content, safe working life and recyclability.

For this Workshop we are lucky to have 2 leading guest speakers. Anna-Karin Jönbrink from IVF, Sweden is leading the EuP preparatory studies team for the EU Commission on PCs, and this will be a golden opportunity to find out the latest developments on the EuP. Our other speaker is Chris Robertson of ERA Technologies. His company has been doing a lot of work for both the Dti and the EU Commission for the RoHS directive. He will be covering the latest updates on the WEEE and RoHS, including the work done on demonstrating due diligence.
