Two key frameworks we adhere to are REACH and RoHS—European regulations that restrict the use of hazardous substances in products.  ![reach-rohs-gunnebo](https://blog.gunnebosafestorage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/reach-rohs-gunnebo.png?width=790&height=390&name=reach-rohs-gunnebo.png) ### Understanding REACH and RoHS REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals) and RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) are designed to limit the use of substances that may be harmful to human health or the environment. These regulations apply to a wide range of industries and products, including electrical and electronic equipment.  Complying with REACH and RoHS helps companies reduce environmental and health-related risks, ensure adherence to European legislation, and provide customers with safe, reliable products.  ### Our Approach at Gunnebo Safe Storage Although REACH and RoHS are EU regulations, we are applying these standards across all Gunnebo Safe Storage entities—whether based in Europe, the US, or the Asia-Pacific region. This approach ensures that products manufactured outside the EU, but intended for the European market, meet the required standards from the outset.  By doing so, we aim to support a consistent level of safety and compliance across our global manufacturing footprint.  We work across functions—from R&D and procurement to production and sales—to review materials, engage with suppliers, and ensure our processes support compliance. This process involves obtaining compliance information and creating a documented declaration that can be provided to customers upon request.  This collaborative approach helps us maintain high standards throughout the product lifecycle and respond efficiently to customer requests for compliance documentation.  Prioritising REACH and RoHS compliance not only ensures we meet legal obligations but also supports our sustainability goals and strengthens our reputation as a responsible manufacturer. By working cross-functionally and embedding compliance into our operations, we reduce risks and contribute to a safer, more sustainable future.    To learn more about our Sustainability work, visit [www.gunnebosafestorage.com/sustainability/](http://www.gunnebosafestorage.com/sustainability/).  - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![Gunnebo Safe Storage’s Contribution to Gunnebo's 2025 Sustainability Report](https://blog.gunnebosafestorage.com/hubfs/Sustainability%20Report%202025%20Mockup%201.png)](https://blog.gunnebosafestorage.com/insights/gunnebo-safe-storages-contribution-to-gunnebos-2025-sustainability-report?hsLang=en) #### [Gunnebo Safe Storage’s Contribution to Gunnebo's 2025 Sustainability Report](https://blog.gunnebosafestorage.com/insights/gunnebo-safe-storages-contribution-to-gunnebos-2025-sustainability-report?hsLang=en) [Jacob Naslund](https://blog.gunnebosafestorage.com/insights/author/jacob-naslund) : May 21, 2026, 11:15:25 AM This year marks an important milestone as Gunnebo publishes its annual report aligned with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)....
