RoHS directive if it does not belong to one of the groups of products exempted from the RoHS
directive.
Although many of hardware products of N.A.T. are exempted from the RoHS directive it is a
declared policy of N.A.T. to provide all products fully compliant to the RoHS directive as soon
as possible. For this purpose since January 31st, 2005 N.A.T. is requesting RoHS compliant
deliveries from its suppliers. Special attention and care has been paid to the production cycle,
so that wherever and whenever possible RoHS components are used with N.A.T. hardware
products already.

Compliance to WEEE Directive
Directive 2002/95/EC of the European Commission on "Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment" (WEEE) predicts that every manufacturer of electrical and electronical equipment
which is put on the European market has to contribute to the reuse, recycling and other forms
of recovery of such waste so as to reduce disposal. Moreover this directive refers to the
Directive 2002/95/EC of the European Commission on the "Restriction of the use of certain
Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment" (RoHS).
Having its main focus on private persons and households using such electrical and electronic
equipment the directive also affects business-to-business relationships. The directive is quite
restrictive on how such waste of private persons and households has to be handled by the
supplier/manufacturer; however, it allows a greater flexibility in business-to-business relation-
ships. This pays tribute to the fact with industrial use electrical and electronical products are
commonly integrated into larger and more complex environments or systems that cannot
easily be split up again when it comes to their disposal at the end of their life cycles.
As N.A.T. products are solely sold to industrial customers, by special arrangement at time of
purchase the customer agreed to take the responsibility for a WEEE compliant disposal of the
used N.A.T. product. Moreover, all N.A.T. products are marked according to the directive with
a crossed out bin to indicate that these products within the European Community must not be
disposed with regular waste.
If you have any questions on the policy of N.A.T. regarding the Directive 2011/65/EU of the
European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2011 on the "Restriction of the use of certain
Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment" (RoHS) or the Directive
2002/95/EC of the European Commission on "Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment"
(WEEE) please contact N.A.T. by phone or e-mail.
