Gisbert / Tino All products placed on the market before the deadline can be sold.
By placed on the market they have to be available for sale to the end customer. Not nearly done, in production, ordered but not delivered, but physically available. Always exceptions though..... Such is bueracracy On good "gotcha" from some activities we currently do here. If you manufacture modules and sub modules or components to be integrated into a larger product, as far as I know you can sell them as "your" product as it exists in the market before the deadline as long as it complies with the definition of an end product. But you might not get any buyers other than for service even well before the dealine. Why, because, your customer then breaks the directive by including your non RoHS compliant assemblies in their "RoHS" compliant product which is technically manufactured after the deadline, depending on lead times from goods in to deliver product for distribution. Supply chain plays a big part here. You also cannot use the non-RoHS sub modules or assemblies for service of RoHS compliant products as the product may not share the same disposal path for EOLV as it should also be stamped for WEEE so you could end up falling foul or WEEE unless you segregate the items before sending to an approved recycling centre. And after all our efforts we need more natural resources and produce more emmissions to generate the energy to recycle the products at their EOL .... Makes you think.
