"Administration on the Control of Pollution Caused by Electronic Information Products" (ACPEIP or China RoHS I) was released in 2006 by the MIIT.
[3] The EEP logo is used to mark parts and assemblies that do not contain unacceptable amounts of substances identified by the regulations, and that are environmentally safe.
Items that do contain hazardous substances are marked with the EEP logo including an Environment Friendly Use Period (EFUP) value in years.
Furthermore, per standard SJ/T 11364, a table in simplified Chinese must be included in the product manual guide specifying whether or not any of the hazardous substances exceed the threshold at the homogenous level.
The addition of phthalates to the RoHS regulation would advance China's green industrial development program, which is part of their 14th Five-Year Plan.
