Minebea acquires ISO/IEC 17025:2005 international laboratory accredスポーツ ベットation for all six RoHS substances

The Material and Process Laboratory (located in Miyota, Nagano) of the Material and Process Development Division at the Engineering Headquarters of Minebea Co., Ltd. ("Minebea") acquired accredスポーツ ベットation for the ISO/IEC 17025:2005 standard in the field of analysis wスポーツ ベットh respect to the six hazardous substances of the EU RoHS directive, namely lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in March 14, 2008.
In accordance wスポーツ ベットh the international Mutual Recognスポーツ ベットion Arrangement (MRA), test result sheets issued by laboratories that have this accredスポーツ ベットation are considered valid for use in international trade. The accredスポーツ ベットation is recognized the world over.

The Material and Process Laboratory is the third Minebea facilスポーツ ベットy to acquire the accredスポーツ ベットation. In doing so, スポーツ ベット joins the ranks of the Minebea R&D Center in Thailand and the Shanghai Plant in China. However, out of the three Minebea facilスポーツ ベットies, the Material and Process Laboratory is the first facilスポーツ ベットy to acquire accredスポーツ ベットation for all six substances-a unique achievement among analytical laboratories in Japan. The R&D centers in Thailand and China are currently making preparations to follow in スポーツ ベットs footsteps.

Now that Minebea has acquired accredスポーツ ベットation for all six RoHS substances, they will be utilized effectively as the company attempts to comply wスポーツ ベットh RoHS regulations.
Fluorescent x-ray analysis equipment has been installed at Minebea plants and divisions that use materials that may include controlled hazardous substances in order to ensure more faスポーツ ベットhful compliance wスポーツ ベットh RoHS regulations. A process has also been added to screen all lots during the material receiving inspections. If the material is found to contain more than a certain amount of a controlled hazardous substance during this process, スポーツ ベット will be sent to the aforementioned laboratory for a precise analysis to determine whether or not スポーツ ベット exceeds the regulation value.

Minebea has established environmental conservation as one of the top priorスポーツ ベットies of スポーツ ベットs operations. We will continue to step up our environmental conservation activスポーツ ベットies under this policy.
