Global Legislation Website
Access emerging and current legislation, jurisdictional authorities and translated regulations with the click of a button
Keeping up with emerging environmental legislation surrounding the electronics industry requires substantial resources and time commitments. In addition, tracking down the jurisdiction's authoritative body, determining the potentially cryptic nomenclature in use, and isolating recognized translations can impede even the most resourceful compliance managers.
With the emergence of RoHS, WEEE, REACH, packaging and battery regulations world-wide, Intertek Ageus Solutions now offers a consolidated on-line source for global environmental legislation and regulations surrounding the electronics industry.
