Online tool provides product environmental compliance data
Expanded availability of Molex's web-based product environmental and regulatory information has been announced. The new Molex online tool allows a user to select and download industry product compliance documents, including IPC Class C, IPC Class D and comprehensive Product Compliance Declarations, together with EU RoHS, REACH SVHC and Low-Halogen Statements for multiple products.
“Co-developers and customers can now quickly generate industry and environmental compliance documents they need, without having to submit an email request or endure lengthy wait times for documents. The new tool reduces the turnaround times of the related document requests from several days-weeks to an average of five minutes per request,” said Haim Eliyahu, Global Product Compliance Manager, Molex.
Molex’s goal is to be the first connector manufacturer to provide instant online access to industry environmental compliance documents for all its products. An information management system with detailed product composition data enables Molex to better manage and verify product compliance. The new online tool makes that data more readily accessible.
A user may enter any Molex product number(s) into the tool, select the desired industry document, and obtain all the requested information into his/her email account within minutes. The tool features an easy-to-use interface with the option to receive industry compliance documents in XML and PDF formats. The tool also provides each user with an Excel summary report for each request, containing the list of requested products, documents, and their related statuses.
Eliyahu added: “Competing in global manufacturing demands agility. Improving access to industry and environmental compliance information creates more value and a competitive advantage for Molex customers anywhere in the world.”
