On November 20, 2012, Denmark released an order that restricts phthalates, a plastic softener. Evidence indicates that phthalates can potentially cause damage to the endocrine system. The order bans the import and sale of DEHP, DBP, BBP and DIBP at a concentration greater than 0.1% by weight. The order will enter into force on December 1, 2013. For electrical and electronic products that fall within the scope of RoHS 2, the ban will begin on December 1, 2014.
