Grundfos has implemented an IT-platform to support the work of securing compliance with the Focus List and a better
supplier collaboration to secure a high data quality and reliability.
Grundfos continuously performs audits of their suppliers to ensure compliance with their contractual obligation to
comply with the chemical legislation.
Grundfos does not accept banned or restricted hazardous substances in their products. It is a standard task in
product development projects to ensure that banned or restricted hazardous substances are not used.
REACH Regulation (EC 1907/2006)
Information regarding REACH Candidate List of substances of very high concern for Authorisation
At Grundfos, we run our business in a responsible and ever more sustainable way. We are committed to creating products
and solutions that help our customers and the surrounding world conserve natural resources and reduce climate impacts.
To give our suppliers, contractors and other relevant stakeholders worldwide a tool to help comply with this, we have
devised the Grundfos Focus List, which bans or restricts the use of certain chemical substances in Grundfos products,
Grundfos production processes and at Grundfos facilities.
The process set-out in Grundfos is to phase out the use of the substances of very high concern (SVHC) from the REACH
Candidate List (www.echa.europa.eu/web/guest/candidate-list-table).
With the recent update of the REACH Candidate List of substances of very high concern for Authorisation as of
27.06.2018 where Lead; CAS No. 7439-92-1 has been added, we are making an exemption from our internal procedures,
since a timely phase out is not possible.
Lead is only used in applications that are declared as exemptions in the EU RoHS Directive and the purpose of the RoHS
Directive is to eliminate risk of harm:
Copper alloy containing up to 4 % lead by weight (used in fittings, unions etc.)
Lead as an alloying element in aluminum containing up to 0.4 % by weight (used in very few parts)
Lead as an alloying element in steel for machining purposes and in galvanised steel containing up to 0.35 % lead by
weight (used in very few parts)
Lead in high melting temperature type solders (used electronic components)
At Grundfos, we are working closely together with our suppliers, and all our suppliers are contractually obliged to comply
with the Grundfos Focus List, which is our Restricted Substance List: www.grundfos.com/focus-list.
Customer information regarding REACH, RoHS and other relevant chemical
legislation and Grundfos’ Product Chemical Compliance initiatives
GRUNDFOS Holding A/S and its subsidiaries are aware of their responsibilities and are committed not to use hazardous
substances in their products.
We have introduced our Restricted Substance List – the Grundfos Focus List – as the backbone in our product chemical
compliance work.
All our suppliers are contractually obliged to comply with the Focus List – no matter the placing of the goods.
To improve the compliance work and to improve the quality process linked to this work, we have also implemented a digital
platform to not only secure a far better data quality in our work, but also secure a faster response to our customers in this
regard.
The digital platform supports our ISO Management System and secures a robust process with a solid quality performance.
All our suppliers are also contractually obliged to sign up to the system and provide compliance data within the system.
We comply with the standard EN 50581:2012 and technically document that we comply with the RoHS directives. This
standard is also used in regards of all other legislations listed in the Focus List.
Grundfos continuously performs audits of their suppliers to ensure compliance with their contractual obligation to comply
with the chemical legislation.
WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU
Statement regarding compliance of HVAC OEM pumps with WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU
Grundfos HVAC OEM circulators are delivered to OEM customers exclusively as components for integration into heating
and cooling units (e.g. boilers) to be used to manufacture the final equipment. As Grundfos HVAC OEM circulators are
designed and placed on the market as a component to be integrated into other EEE, the manufacturer of the full/combined
product will be responsible for marking, any weight declaring, and takeback obligations for the full combined EEE under
directive 2012/19/EU.
Any WEEE obligations will depend on the OEM customers use of the component. It is the responsibility of the OEM
customer to assess whether the use of the component is within the scope of directive 2012/19/EU and if this equipment
may or may not be affected by WEEE regulation and it is the responsibility of the OEM to report these volumes if affected.
