PIN FRs maintained on TCO accepted list
TCO, the health, environment and worker protection label for office and home electronics, has updated its list of “alternative safer substances” to now include 14 PIN flame retardants, including mineral FRs (ATH, MDH), nitrogen FRs (melamine polyphosphate) and phosphorus FRs. Five PIN FRs were the object of a TCO request for dossier updates last year, and are now retained on the list following submitted information (TCO list as updated 5th November 2019). TCO inclusion on the “accepted substance list” is based on GreenScreen (recent assessment report, benchmark 2 or higher).
