Listed here are the flagship Enviropass services:

Product Substance Compliance

RoHS Compliance

The European Union (EU) RoHS directive is one of the most respected environmental laws dedicated to electrical or electronic equipment.

Depending on your needs, Enviropass offers Europe RoHS consulting “Classic” or “Deluxe” training services.

REACH SVHC and SCIP Support

REACH is a set of regulations set down in Europe, although they are used all over the world. The purview of REACH law is rather broad, covering many substances, mixtures, and most products in the household or workplace. Target articles include chemicals, electronic devices, batteries, packaging, mechanical items, furniture, toys, etc.

Producers must declare certain candidate substances, such as the Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC). Other materials are merely banned (or at least restricted) as indicated in the REACH Annex XVII.

Enviropass helps you with the SCIP registration and notification of SVHCs in your products.

Environmental Management Systems and ISO 14001

ISO 14001 is the most recognized standard of environmental management systems. The environmental aspects of all activities, services, and products of a given organization fall under this standard.

An important note is that suppliers must also account for environmental product life cycles (PLCs). This protocol should also consider applicable product environment regulations such as RoHS, REACH, POP, WEEE, or any product-specific requirements.

Enviropass has helped various companies and agencies with their environmental management systems alongside their needs for environmental compliance audits.

TSCA PBT Compliance

The federal US Toxic Substances Control Act now restricts the use of persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) substances in articles and other products. Enviropass’ experts have the solution to help you comply.

Chemical Restriction Screening

This is about running a risk assessment and focusing on the most at-risk substances in a given product.

IEC 63000 Documentary Review

This standard is one of the key ones when it comes to doing a risk assessment in products, in particular for RoHS in electronics.

California RoHS

California RoHS is very similar to the first version of Europe RoHS, which only covered six substances in that iteration. If your product is already EU RoHS compliant, compliance under California RoHS is an easy move. Let Enviropass verify that for you!

ELV Environmental Compliance

You might have noticed that automotive equipment is outside the scope of Europe RoHS. The reason is because of a separate regulation dedicated entirely to hazardous substance restrictions in vehicles: the End-of-life vehicle (ELV) directive. Enviropass recommends using the same RoHS compliance approach.

Turkey RoHS

Being close geographically and economically to the European Union, Turkey has also enacted its regulation, with slight deviations from Europe RoHS. Do you export electrical and electronic products to Turkey? Make sure you fully comply with Turkey RoHS!

PFAS Compliance Assessment

Enviropass provides comprehensive PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) testing solutions to ensure product safety and regulatory compliance. PFAS are synthetic chemicals used in various products due to their resistance to heat, water, and oil, but they pose significant health and environmental risks due to their persistence in the environment and the human body.

Choose Enviropass for expert PFAS testing, precise results, and exceptional support.

China RoHS Environmental Compliance

China RoHS has followed the Europe RoHS initiative quite promptly. An important note, however, is that China’s RoHS obligations, labels, and declarations differ from the European standard.

Let Enviropass assist you by:

  • ensuring you have a robust technical file
  • drafting the China RoHS tables of your products, in Chinese

finding the appropriate product label, including the Environment-Friendly Use Period (EFUP) symbol.

California Proposition 65 Assessment

California proposition 65 targets hundreds of substances, much like REACH SVHC. If they are contained in your products and may come in direct contact with the consumers, these substances must have declaration following a Safe Harbor Warning.

Via a risk assessment, Enviropass performs the inventory of the substances that may be in your products.

POPs Compliance Assessment

Alongside RoHS, REACH, the POP regulation is the third requirement that typically applies to electrical and electronic equipment placed on the European market.

POP means Persistent Organic Pollutants. Like REACH SVHC, POP applies to many types of products and targets bioaccumulative substances (halogenated chemicals).

Enviropass can assess your products against POP substances.

Supplier Declaration Review

Here, one of the Enviropass experts gathers and analyzes documents through a supply chain audit.

Laboratory Testing Strategy

When the risk is present or if it’s a regulatory requirement, our lab facility and network can assist you with physical analytical testing.

UAE RoHS Environmental Compliance

The United Arab Emirates uses a localized UAE RoHS set of compliance obligations. Enviropass supports companies in preparing their technical files and submitting robust application forms.

Taiwan RoHS

Technically, Taiwan RoHS resembles both EU and China RoHS characteristics, with the European concept of exemptions alongside the Chinese table information to the recycler.  Enviropass has the consulting capabilities to verify your products against Taiwan RoHS.

Medical Devices Environmental Compliance

Depending on your type of medical device RoHS, REACH, POP, and other specific restrictions of chemical use may apply.

Material Declarations and Environmental Compliance

Whether you need declarations under EPEC, IPC-1752, IMDS, GADSL, or another standard, Enviropass is here to help you with your product material declarations.

Product Life Cycle Compliance

LCA Support

Life cycle assessments are becoming increasingly important in several manufacturing Industries. Some stakeholders or third parties even require them, with minimum levels.

Battery compliance

Similar to Packaging, batteries tend to have a short lifespan compared to electronics. Additionally, they might contain toxic substances like certain heavy metals. As a result, jurisdictions worldwide tribe to regulate these energy batteries essential to the modern economy.

management-systems-2

Federal Plastics Registry Support

Starting in Canada, this FPR requirement applies every year and involves data collection, monitoring, procedures in place, and official declarations.

Packaging compliance

We discard packaging on a regular basis. Therefore, due to their volume, their environmental impact is massive. Hence, environmental regulations to minimise the risks.

WEEE Environmental Compliance

Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) regulations are in place worldwide.  Many municipal and state bodies have implemented WEEE, e-cycling, or take-back programs that may apply to your devices. The European Union has the broadest scope and covers the most product categories, including professional electronic equipment.

Since every state has its own set of rules, it is not always easy for international participants to understand and fully comply. Let Enviropass guide you through this journey!

Ecodesign Compliance

Similar to life cycle assessments, designers are eager to opt for the most sustainable products while not compromising quality and robustness. Enviropass experts can help you design for the future.

Microplastics Compliance Support

Microplastics affect most ecosystems. We even find certain quantities in the food we eat. Therefore, they are increasingly becoming a public concern with the first European initiative to control their production.

Management Systems and Audits

Environmental Compliance Audits

Meeting the national and local regulations is paramount. International standards, contracts, and internal procedures might also have some compliance obligations. Enviropass has the expertise to help you understand the compliance level of your organization.

ISO 14001 Consulting

ISO 14001 is the most recognized standard of environmental management systems. The environmental aspects of all activities, services, and products of a given organization fall under this standard.

An important note is that suppliers must also account for environmental product life cycles (PLCs). This protocol should also consider applicable product environment regulations such as RoHS, REACH, POP, WEEE, or any product-specific requirements.

Enviropass has helped various companies and agencies with their environmental management systems alongside their needs for environmental compliance audits.

Regulatory Monitoring

It’s not always easy to know the applicable regulations to a specific activity, service, or product. It’s even more challenging to monitor them. Enviropass is here to assist you with this endeavor.

NAS411 Hazardous Materials Management Support

This Aerospace International standard helps you build a management system to address hazardous substances in this high-value industry.

QC 080000 Hazardous Substance Process Management

Similar to ISO 14001, QC 080000 addresses the development of a Management System. However, that one is dedicated to the restriction of chemicals in electronics.

Social and Supply Chain Compliance

Conflict Minerals

Certain minerals, such as the 3TGs (tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold) originate from conflict zones. Some mines are even under terrorist activities.  Regulations are in place to curb the risk of financing such activities, and an audit system has been implemented via Conflict Minerals Reporting Templates (CMRT).

Enviropass is here to audit your supply chain and prepare your CMRT accordingly.

Supplier Compliance Programs

The entire integrated chain of value must meet your organization’s social requirements. Enviropass is here to help you connect with your supply chain and have a third party dedicated to ensuring conformity.

Human trafficking and Forced Labour Compliance Support

Sadly enough, human trafficking, such as child and forced labor, is still rampant in the manufacturing industry worldwide. Some states and countries have implemented a set of corporate obligations to fight this social scourge, including supply chain audits.. Enviropass can help you with such audits and assist with your due diligence procedures.
