Introduction

To support international regulatory requirements and ensure smooth customer qualification processes, Jiushuo has completed RoHS 2.0 compliance testing for a selection of carrier tape, cover tape, and related SMT packaging materials. This testing confirms that the evaluated products meet current EU RoHS directives and are suitable for use in global electronics manufacturing and supply chains.

RoHS compliance remains a core requirement for overseas OEMs, EMS providers, and component distributors, particularly for products entering the European market or serving multinational manufacturing programs. By proactively validating material compliance, Jiushuo helps customers reduce regulatory risk and simplify supplier approval procedures.

Test Scope and Product Coverage

The RoHS 2.0 compliance testing covered production-grade materials used across Jiushuo’s SMT packaging product range, including carrier tape and cover tape solutions supplied for international electronics assembly.

The evaluated scope includes materials used in Jiushuo’s Carrier Tape product range, such as:

  • Standard embossed carrier tape for general SMT applications
  • Anti-static carrier tape designed for ESD-sensitive components
  • Custom carrier tape configurations produced for non-standard component profiles

These materials represent standard production specifications used in mass manufacturing and export-oriented supply programs.

Applied Standards and Compliance Criteria

The testing was conducted in accordance with RoHS 2.0 requirements, based on:

  • EU Directive 2011/65/EU
  • Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2015/863

These directives restrict the use of specific hazardous substances commonly regulated in electronic and electrical equipment, including heavy metals and certain flame retardants. The evaluated carrier tape and cover tape materials were verified to meet the applicable substance restriction limits defined under RoHS 2.0.

This compliance confirms that Jiushuo’s packaging materials are suitable for integration into RoHS-regulated electronic assemblies and downstream products intended for the EU and other regulated markets.

What This Means for Overseas Customers

For international buyers and manufacturing partners, this RoHS 2.0 compliance verification provides several practical benefits:

Reduced Regulatory Risk

Customers sourcing packaging materials for RoHS-controlled products can proceed with greater confidence.

Simplified Supplier Qualification

Verified compliance supports internal audits, customer approval workflows, and supplier onboarding processes.

Support for Diverse Product Configurations

Compliance applies across multiple carrier tape variants, including: Embossed Carrier Tape (Standard), Anti-Static (ESD) Carrier Tape, and Custom Embossed Carrier Tape, allowing customers to maintain regulatory consistency even when component designs vary.

Long-Term Supply Stability

Testing is based on production-grade materials, supporting stable and repeatable supply for ongoing manufacturing programs.

Cover Tape Compatibility and Compliance

In addition to carrier tape materials, RoHS 2.0 compliance also applies to Jiushuo’s cover tape solutions used in SMT packaging systems. These include products from the Cover Tape product category, covering both:

By ensuring material compliance across both carrier tape and cover tape components, Jiushuo supports complete, RoHS-aligned packaging solutions suitable for automated SMT feeding and handling.
