Are Your Heat Sink Materials RoHS and REACH Certified?
Heat sinks often seem “just metal” to many buyers, but hidden chemicals or coating layers can hide compliance risks. Without proof, your shipment could be held or rejected.
Yes, our heat sink materials are designed and manufactured to meet both RoHS and REACH requirements across coatings, alloys, and processing steps.
Many companies claim “We comply.” But buyers deserve evidence — lab reports, batch data, and third‑party audits. Below I explain in detail how we ensure compliance, test materials, document results, engage labs, and apply REACH standards to all grades.
Do You Test Raw Materials for Hazardous Substances?
Risk mitigation must begin at the source. If the raw inputs already contain restricted substances, no amount of downstream control can fully eliminate risk.
Yes — we test raw materials for hazardous substances, including heavy metals, restricted organics, and SVHCs, as part of our quality system.
Even primary aluminum billet—or alloying additions—can carry trace impurities. Surface treatments, pigments, sealing agents, and additives may introduce dangerous substances like lead, cadmium, or brominated flame retardants.
How We Control Inputs
Stage | Action |
---|---|
Supplier Onboarding | Require declarations, MSDS, and RoHS/REACH compliance evidence |
Incoming Testing | Sample and test each batch for heavy metals and SVHCs |
Internal Records | Record lot numbers, test results, and supplier traceability |
We use ICP, XRF, and GC-MS methods. Any nonconforming batch is rejected before use.
We sample each incoming aluminum billet lot for heavy metal contamination before processing.True
We perform batch sampling and lab testing on incoming raw materials to detect restricted metals.
Testing only begins after finishing (coating, anodizing), not on raw materials.False
We perform testing both on raw materials and finished products to ensure full compliance.
Can You Issue Compliance Reports for Each Shipment?
Customers in regulated industries such as electronics, automotive, medical, or aerospace often require formal documentation of compliance. A verbal assurance is rarely enough.
Yes — we can issue full compliance documentation for every shipment, including declarations, certificates, and test reports.
Standard Reports We Provide
Report Type | Purpose |
---|---|
RoHS Declaration | Confirms limits on Pb, Cd, Hg, Cr⁶⁺, etc. |
REACH SVHC Report | Confirms presence/absence of listed SVHCs |
Lab Reports | Confirms batch-level test results |
Traceability Sheet | Maps product to input lots |
MSDS | For surface chemicals |
We can also provide bilingual documents or customize based on your requirements.
We provide test reports to customers for every shipment by default.True
Providing documentation is part of our standard compliance service.
Compliance reports are only provided upon paying extra fees.False
We include standard compliance documentation as part of normal shipping contracts.
What Third-Party Labs Verify Your Environmental Standards?
Third-party labs help validate compliance and satisfy regulators or corporate auditors. They are critical for international credibility.
We partner with recognized third-party labs such as SGS, TÜV Rheinland, Intertek, Bureau Veritas, and others to verify our compliance.
Example Lab Partners
Lab | Specialization |
---|---|
SGS | RoHS, REACH, VOC testing |
TÜV Rheinland | Product safety, regulatory audits |
Intertek | Chemical analysis, sustainability |
Bureau Veritas | Factory audits, batch testing |
We can use customer-nominated labs, or you can witness the testing at our facility.
Only domestic Chinese labs are acceptable for Chinese manufacturers.False
Global customers generally require internationally accredited labs; domestic labs with ISO/IEC 17025 are acceptable if accredited.
We can accommodate your designated third‑party lab to test our samples.True
We are open to sampling and sending materials to any lab your company approves.
Is REACH Compliance Standard Across Your Aluminum Grades?
Some buyers believe only raw metals matter, but REACH covers surface treatments, trace elements, and additives too.
Yes — we ensure REACH compliance is standard across all our aluminum grades and surface coatings.
Our REACH Compliance Coverage
Grade | Use Case | Compliance |
---|---|---|
6063-T5 | Heat sinks, architectural | ✅ Full REACH |
6061-T6 | Machinery, frames | ✅ Full REACH |
Custom | On request | ✅ With documentation |
We check each step — billet, coating, sealing — for SVHCs. If thresholds are near limits, we notify you.
All our aluminum grades are covered by the same REACH compliance procedures.True
We apply the same REACH evaluation, supplier control, and testing for all grades we offer.
Only standard grades (6063, 6061) are REACH compliant, but custom grades are exempt.False
We treat custom grades under the same compliance controls; they are not exempt by default.
Conclusion
We build compliance into every layer — from alloy sourcing to surface treatment. You get tested, certified, and traceable aluminum heat sinks ready for global markets — with full RoHS and REACH documentation included.
