In a recent reply to a report filed by Greenpeace, Apple has claimed that the iPhone is meets the restrictions placed on hazardous substances. Like all Apple products worldwide, iPhone complies with RoHS [Restriction of Hazardous Substances], the world’s toughest restrictions on toxic substances in electronics,” an Apple spokesperson has said. Apple plans to completely eliminate the use of PVC and BFRs in its products by the end of 2008. There are also plans to eliminate or reduce the use of other chemicals including Arsenic and Mercury. Despite Apple’s commitment, the company came under fire on Monday for chemicals found in the iPhone and the the Center for Environmental Health has given Apple 60-days legal notice a step required by California law before a lawsuit is launched.
