Conflict Minerals Declaration
Last Updated on 1st September 2020
Version 1.4
Shreejee Electronics is committed to Sourcing Components and Materials from Companies that share our values of Human Rights, Ethics and Environmental Responsibility. We expect all our suppliers to abide by the requirements of our Supplier Code of Conduct, which prohibits Human Rights Abuse and Unethical Practices. We also require all our suppliers to comply with Applicable Legal and Regulatory Standards and Requirements.
The definition of “conflict minerals” refers to Gold (Au), as well as Tin (Sn), Tantalum (Ta), and Tungsten (W), the derivatives of Cassiterite, Columbite-tantalite, and wolframite, regardless of where they are sourced, processed or sold.
Conflict minerals originating from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are sometimes mined and sold”, under the control of armed groups”, to “Finance conflict characterized by extreme levels of violence”. Some of these minerals can make their way into the supply chains of the products used around the world, including those in the electronics industry.
In response to violence and human rights violations in the mining of certain minerals from the “Conflict Region”, which is situated in the eastern portion of the democratic republic of the Congo (DRC) and surrounding countries, the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has adopted rules to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to “conflict minerals”, as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The rules require manufacturers who file certain reports with the SEC to disclose whether the products they manufacture or contract to manufacture certain “conflict minerals” that are “necessary to the functionality or production” of those products.
We support the Humanitarian goal of ending violence, human rights violations and environmental devastation in the DRC and adjoining Countries.
- Shreejee Electronics is committed to the responsible sourcing of “Conflict Minerals” throughout our supply chain and to continuing to comply with requirements applicable to our company under the Conflict Minerals rule surrounding Conflict Minerals.
- Shreejee Electronics will assist our Customers in implementing their conflict minerals programs and strive to work cooperatively with our customers and supply chain partners in implementing Conflict Minerals Compliance Programs.
RoHS Compliance
Last Updated on 11th March 2023
Version 1.3
Originally, the European Union enacted a directive 2002/95/EC. This directive (known as the RoHS initiative) established limitations in electrical and electronic equipment of certain hazardous compounds. These compounds are Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Hexavalent Chromium, Polybrominated Bisphenyls (PPB), and Polybrominated Diphenyl Esters (PBDE). The limitations were 1000 ppm (0.1%) for Lead, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, PBE, and PBDE. The limitation established for Cadmium was 100 ppm (0.01%).
On June 4, 2015, the European Union enacted directive 2015/863/EU, also known as RoHS 3, which adds four substances to the list of six that are restricted from use. Specifically, these compounds are: Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phalate (DEHP), Butyl benzyphalate (BBP), Dibutyl phalate (DBP), and Diisobutyl phalate (DIBP). All 4 substances are restricted to concentrations of 0.1% or less. This directive becomes effective in July 2019.
It is not our intention to change part numbers to identify RoHS-compliant items. Our packaging and documentation will include the Pb-free and/or RoHS-compliant symbol if required by our customers. Our date and batch coding identification of individual items will provide full traceability for our records.
Our design and development engineers are actively encouraged to work closely with customers and document all aspects of new products concerning Pb-free and RoHS compliance, thereby ensuring all new products start life in line with the directive.
Our program includes buying only RoHS-compliant components wherever possible and so all compliant parts are identified at the supplier. We have been involved in extensive tests and trials to ensure the switch to Pb-free will be as trouble-free as possible. However, we rely on our suppliers to provide Pb-free and RoHS-compliant components to maintain our objective. All compliant parts are documented in our goods inwards and segregated from any non-compliant parts in our stock.
Shreejee Electronics has obtained certification from our supplier base and performed testing on our own and have determined that our products produced (only on customer’s request) on or after April 30th, 2018, are all in full compliance with 2015/863/EU. None of the ten aforementioned substances are present in any of the Shreejee Electronics standard catalog products we offer to the marketplace in concentrations greater than those specified in the directive.
Shreejee Electronics is committed to keeping all the above hazardous substances out of the marketplace and restricting their use in our production facilities.

Safety UL/CSA/IEC Conformity Declaration
Last Updated on 30th October 2020
Version 1.0
Some Shreejee Electronics parts are designed to meet specific UL / CSA / IEC or other standards as noted on the particular Shreejee Electronics datasheet.
Most products manufactured by Shreejee Electronics are typically not certified by UL, CSA, TUV, CE or other agencies. Safety standard listings most commonly apply to complete electronic assemblies such as power supplies, computers, modems, televisions, etc. and not specifically to the high-frequency transformers or inductors that Shreejee Electronics manufactures. In most cases, Shreejee Electronics’ products are evaluated as part of the end equipment built by our customers; the inductors or transformers are not usually individually listed.
Upon customer request, Shreejee Electronics may obtain specific transformer listings, for example, per UL / IEC 60950 Harmonized Standard for “Safety of Information Technology Equipment.” However, doing so will not automatically qualify the end equipment for agency approval. The manufacturer still has to submit the entire product to UL for approval. Alternatively, Shreejee Electronics can supply certain pertinent information about Hi Pot voltages and insulation to support customers with the approval process on a per-request basis.
