RoHS Compliant Shades – Hazardous Substance Free

RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) is a directive that limits the use of specific hazardous materials in electrical and electronic equipment—including the motors and control systems in motorized shades. Our RoHS Compliant Shades collection features motorized window coverings with components that are certified free from:

  • Lead (Pb)
  • Mercury (Hg)
  • Cadmium (Cd)
  • Hexavalent chromium (CrVI)
  • Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB)
  • Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE)
  • Four different phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP, DIBP)
    All motors, power supplies, remote controls, and wiring meet RoHS 3 (Directive 2015/863) standards. This is the highest level of hazardous substance restriction for electronic components. Available on all motorized shades: roller, roman, cellular, zebra, and sheer. Custom‑sized to your exact window dimensions. Certified clean, responsibly made.

What is RoHS Compliance?

RoHS is a European Union directive that restricts the use of ten hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. RoHS‑compliant products contain these substances below strict maximum concentration values (typically 0.1% by weight). While RoHS is required for electronics sold in the EU, we apply this standard to all our motorized shades worldwide as part of our commitment to responsible manufacturing.

RoHS 3 – The Latest Standard

Our motorized shades meet RoHS 3 (Directive 2015/863), which expands the original list of restricted substances by adding four phthalates. This is the most current and stringent version of the directive. All electronic components—motors, control boards, power supplies, remotes, wiring harnesses—are fully RoHS 3 certified.

Ideal for Environmentally Conscious Homes & Projects

RoHS‑compliant shades are recommended for:

  • Green building projects pursuing LEED, WELL, or BREEAM certification

  • Healthcare facilities where patient safety is a priority

  • Schools and daycare centers

  • Environmentally conscious homeowners

  • Commercial clients with sustainability or ESG goals

Available on All Motorized Shades

RoHS‑compliant motors and controls are available across our entire motorized product line:

  • Motorized roller shades

  • Motorized roman shades

  • Motorized cellular shades

  • Motorized zebra shades

  • Motorized sheer shades

  • Motorized dual‑shade (DayNight) systems

All motors and electronics carry the RoHS compliance mark.

Documentation for Compliance

Each RoHS‑compliant order includes a declaration of conformity and, upon request, full laboratory test reports. These documents are accepted by green‑building certifiers, corporate compliance teams, and regulatory auditors.

No Compromise on Performance

RoHS‑compliant motors deliver the same quiet operation, long battery life, and smart‑home compatibility as our standard motors. The only difference is the verified absence of hazardous substances.

5‑Year Warranty

All RoHS‑compliant motors are covered by our standard 5‑year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
