TE Connectivity publishes 'Substances in TE Connectivity (TE) products' customer letter (July 2024) summarizing TE banned-substances positions and regulatory drivers

TE Connectivity published a customer letter dated 1 July 2024 providing a summary of substances in TE products and identifying multiple substance groups that TE treats as “banned according to TE policy” (e.g., certain POPs/halogenated substances, PFOS/PFOA, ozone-depleting substances, and other restricted categories referenced in the letter). While not a governmental regulatory change, this document is directly relevant to the TE Banned Substances framework because it communicates TE’s internal substance restrictions and ties them to underlying regulatory frameworks (e.g., REACH restrictions and POPs controls), which can trigger supplier declaration updates and internal materials governance.
