On January 25, 2024, CNCA issued a notice on adjusting the applicable standards for the testing methods of the qualified assessment system for limiting the use of harmful substances in electrical and electronic products. The following is the content of the announcement:
In order to maintain consistency with the international standards for the detection of harmful substances in electrical and electronic products, facilitate the industrial chain and supply chain, and facilitate service trade, it has been decided to adjust the testing method standards of the qualified assessment system for the restricted use of harmful substances in electrical and electronic products from GB/T 26125 "Determination of Six Restricted Substances (Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Hexavalent Chromium, Polybrominated Biphenyls, and Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers)" to GB/T 39560.1, GB/T 39560.2, and GB/T 39560.301 GB/T 39560.4, GB/T 39560.5, GB/T 39560.6, GB/T 39560.701, and GB/T 39560.702 are eight series of standards for the determination of certain substances in electronic and electrical products (hereinafter referred to as GB/T 39560 series standards).
The relevant requirements are hereby announced as follows:
1. Starting from March 1, 2024, the new national standard RoHS GB/T 39560 series will replace the old standard GB/T 26125.
2. The newly issued ROHS testing report by a third-party testing agency should comply with the GB/T 39560 series standards. Laboratories/institutions that have not conducted CMA qualification assessment for the GB/T 39560 series standards can still issue the GB/T 26125 standard. If the certificate has been renewed, it should be updated to a new standard.
3. Both new and old standards are applicable to products manufactured before March 1, 2024. In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, products manufactured after March 1, 2024 should promptly issue a GB/T 39560 series new standard ROHS report to meet customer needs.
BTF Testing Lab reminds relevant enterprises to closely monitor the revision status of national electrical and electronic product regulations, understand the testing requirements of GB/T 39560 series standards, innovate, use more environmentally friendly materials, and arrange production and testing reasonably to ensure that products are in compliance. BTF Testing Lab is a professional third-party testing organization with CMA and CNAS authorization qualifications, capable of issuing new national standard reports for GB/T 39560 series standards, meeting the needs of enterprises. If you have any relevant testing needs, you can contact our Xinheng testing staff, and our professional engineering team will help you develop a more suitable testing plan.
