Environment
We care for the highest possible environmental friendliness over the entire product life, i.e. during manufacture, operation and disposal of our products. Pat Says Now fulfils the EU Directive Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment, also called the "RoHS Directive".

The substances restricted by the RoHS Directive include lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium and flame proofing agents on the basis of polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). Due to our careful handling of dangerous materials, Pat Says Now has fulfilled all requirements of the RoHS Directive.

Another important contribution to environmental protection is made by take-back programmes in cooperation with the EAR [index of used electric devices], where private customers and companies can dispose of used Pat Says Now Mice in an environmentally friendly way.

Working conditions
Pat Says Now is proud to say that the working conditions at our suppliers are secure, that employees receive the minimum wages, are treated with respect and dignity and that the manufacturing processes are aimed at environmental compatibility.
