An ethical purchasing policy for quality telecom solutions

REACH : European Regulation for chemical products
To ensure the good functioning of a product, chemicals are sometimes mandatory in its composition. However, certain chemical products are considered to be of very high concern. The REACH regulation
(Registration, Evaluation, Authorization
and Restriction of Chemicals) implemented on 18th of December 2006 lists all substances of very high concern, subject to an authorization or a restriction. These listings are updated every year on January and June. This regulation
aims to enhance the protection of the chemical use on the single market¹. For all these above-mentioned reasons, we control and verify all the substances used for the manufacture of our products based on the REACH regulation criteria.
The list of SVHCs (Substance of Very High Concern) includes chemicals which might cause human health issues and that would be potentially prohibited within the next 5 or 7 years. In order to avoid any supply breakdown, Telenco follows very closely the evolutions of this list.
Telenco cares to offer you healthy product solutions, without dangerous substances in their composition that might harm the health of your technicians. Therefore, we pay close attention to the origin, the composition and the conformity of each one of our products. Also, we carefully select our providers and we make sure that our supply chain follows all the required procedures to guarantee the safety of our products.
1The single market includes European Union, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein.
The American Act Dodd-Frank
Because we strongly believe that a company’s success cannot be built at the expense of human rights, we are willingly complying with the section 1502 of the Dodd-Franck Act. We systematically check for the presence of conflict minerals in our providers’ products. Conflict minerals include gold, tungsten, tantalum and tin. In case these minerals are absolutely mandatory to the composition of our products, then we make sure their origins are different than the Democratic Republic of Congo and its bordering areas. According to the United States Congress which adopted this law, the exploitation and commercialisation of minerals from these conflict areas are financed by armed groups that use forced labor.
