The ECOPACK® grades
The voluntary ECOPACK® program started in 2000 to remove polluting and hazardous substances from our products. We meet all applicable requirements such as REACH, RoHS and ELV, developing solutions that eliminate RoHS chemical compounds from our manufacturing lines and products.
ST products are classified according to the following ECOPACK® grades:
ECOPACK® or ECOPACK®1: Compliant with the RoHS directive, have second level interconnect lead free (with adapted reliability for soldering at higher temperature) and compliant with the ELV Directive
ECOPACK®2: ECOPACK®1 + free of brominated, chlorinated and antimony-oxide flame retardants
ECOPACK®3: ECOPACK®2 + free of halogens with no RoHS exemptions
Lead-free
ST devices are qualified to ensure their resistance to the soldering temperatures for tin-lead solder requested by PC board mounting. ST is a member of the DA5 consortium which seeks to standardize solutions for lead-free solders for attaching dies to packages during manufacturing.
RoHS, REACH and ELV
ST meets applicable worldwide product environmental regulations and requirements related to our products and services, including those stipulated by the European Union on the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), the European Union on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) and on the End of Life of Vehicles (ELV).
