abit has always been at the forefront of innovation, pushing to improve products and the overall experience for users. With this in mind, protecting the common environment is of the utmost importance for abit.

RoHS compliant

For the sake of our environment and to keep the world we are living in cleaner, all new abit products are fully RoHS compliant. Even though these regulations only apply to the European Union, we anticipate similar legislation to be implemented worldwide fairly soon. As things stand, abit is ready. With the environment and its preservation foremost in mind, abit customers and end-users can have complete peace of mind.

Recycling and the WEEE directive

The European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) is promoting the recycling of e-waste. abit is fully supporting these important efforts and is commited to reach a recycling rate of at least 75% in the near future. The necessary infrastructure is ready!
