 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,
