Subject: Banned Substances in Sweden



We have had a request from a customer to verify a lack of certain substances
in one of our products.  Rather than provide us with a regulatory-based list
of substances, they have provided us with a particular company's proprietary
list of substances it bans (and that company is in no way involved in the
dealings between us and our customer).  

Does anyone know where I can get an official list of what substances Sweden
bans in electronic products?

Thanks as always,
