Mercury

**

Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. Mercury
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25
ppm (parts per million) of mercury. It also demands that no mercury is
present in any of the electrical or electronics components concerned with
the display unit. Mercury is, for the time being permitted in the back light
system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially available
alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury free
alternative is available.

CFCs (freons)

CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards and
in the manufacturing of expanded foam for packaging. CFCs break down
ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing
increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light with consequent increased
risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).
The relevant TCO'95 requirement: Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used
during the manufacturing of the product or its packaging.
