To further strengthen environmental consideration in product development, the Fujitsu Group has taken action to eliminate the use of hazardous chemical substances in mobile computing products. To meet the requirements of the European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium is currently being eliminated. Substances containing PBB (Polybrominated biphenyls) and PBDE (Polybrominated diphenyl ethers) have already been eliminated from mobile components as part of the Fujitsu Group Environmental Protection Program. For more information about the steps Fujitsu is taking reduce hazardous materials, go to the RoHS page.
