REACH

 

The European Union Regulation EC 1907/2006, entitled “Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals” (REACH), entered into effect on June 1, 2007. The new regulation was issued to protect human health and the environment by controlling the use of harmful substances within the EU region.

 

UNIPOWER Corporation is a leader in high-density, low profile and hot swap power solutions for telecoms, datacoms, network equipment, servers, data storage, industrial and medical systems. These products are considered as"articles" in the REACH directive and therefore Unipower is considered as a"downstream user".

 

Unipower’s products do not contain more than the 0.1% weight by weight of any of the chemicals listed in Annex A: Candidate list published by ECHA 28 October 2008.

 

Unipower does not import more than 1 ton of the said chemicals per year and as such is not required to register.

The products that we supply are solely non-chemical products and the content of SVHC (substances of very high concern) is below 0.1%. Under normal and reasonable foreseeable circumstances of application, Unipower products will not
release any harmful substances, as defined by REACH.

Unipower acknowledges its responsibility to advise “downstream” users of Unipower products in relation to the REACH directive, and will continue to monitor information received from its suppliers.
