Recital 15

Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2025/2364 of 8 September 2025 amending Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards an exemption for lead as an alloying element in steel, aluminium and copper · European Union

(15) It was found that the use of aluminium alloys containing lead with lead concentration below 0,4 % by weight requires redesign and requalification of electrical and electronic equipment falling under category 9 ‘industrial monitoring and control instruments’ and open-scope category 11 ‘other electrical and electronic equipment’, which requires more time for compliance when compared to other categories referred to in Annex I to Directive 2011/65/EU. Therefore, longer validity periods should be considered for those two categories.
