Halogen-Free Guideline (Policy)

2007/12/01

SeCoS & its subcontractors are committed to integrating a complete environmental management throughout all our daily processes and operations. By the end of 2008 Q2, we plan to start securing a halogen-free manufacturing environment. That is, we will start installing the Halogen-free procedures for a portion of our products by June of next year. It is a milestone in achieving full compliance to our environmental standards.

Molding compounds are the main raw material where Br (bromine, approximately 10000 ppm, 0.7 ~ 0.8 wt %) is used. We are taking the following steps to eliminate the halogen content without altering the quality or performance of our manufacturing processes: By 2008 Q2,

A portion of our products will be sold halogen-free. We will be providing Halogen-Free product samples in for customers. The suffix “C” will be added to all Halogen-Free product to differentiate from the original process. (See the attached picture for the P/N for reference)

By December 2008, Plan to complete our transition to all products halogen-free.
