Dear customers and partners,

after taking a number of organisational measures, we are now able to process your valued enquiries again and thus prepare quotations and confirm requests.

The course has also been set for a return to ‘normality’ at the COBAR plant in order to ramp up flux and solder paste production to the necessary level. Solder paste production in Germany (JEAN-151 and PF32) has continued and continues without restriction.

Securing our customers' production is very important to us. If, contrary to expectations, there are any problems at any point, please do not hesitate to contact us.

As things stand today, orders will be delivered at least until the end of March 2026, as the insolvency proceedings are not scheduled to commence until 1 April 2026, contrary to the original plan. If, contrary to expectations, no restructuring solution is found, we would approach our customers and offer to phase out production in order to take your needs into account in this case as well.

On 5 January 2024, the European Commission amended Annex VI in Part 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP Regulation) for the purpose of adapting it to technical and scientific progress (ATP). This is the 21st adaptation.

The regulation affects a total of 51 entries, with 27 new entries added and 24 entries replaced. For example, the entries for solid lead, lead powder and other substances have been amended.
This has implications for product labelling and transport conditions. As a result of the 21st ATP, the exemption for the labelling of mixtures in accordance with Section 1.3.4 of the CLP Regulation no longer applies to lead.

Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/197 will apply from 1 September 2025.

 

 

Wave soldering applications with or without nitrogen, selective soldering, dip tinning, cable assembly by hand or machine, manual soldering and many other processes have different requirements for the choice of soldering materials especially to fluxes.
