In compliance with California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, otherwise known as Proposition 65, all companies selling or distributing consumer products in or into California are required to inform consumers if using their products potentially could lead to exposure to chemicals listed by the State of California as being known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Proposition 65 has resulted in certain consumer products bearing various warning labels over the years. These warnings generally consist of language drafted by the State of California for general use by almost any product. Companies are likely to use the state-drafted language because the use of other language risks penalties for the product manufacturer or retailer if the substitute language is found insufficient. For more information about Proposition 65, the listed chemicals and the warning requirements, please see HTTPS://WWW.P65WARNINGS.CA.GOV.

Due to these updated regulations, any products produced on or after August 30, 2018, that are sold in or into California must include a chemical exposure warning if

•   the product contains one of the nearly 900 chemicals listed by the State of California and
•  use of the product may expose the consumer to one or more of the listed chemicals in an amount sufficient to require a warning.

In many instances, companies may not know if the use of their product will in fact lead to a sufficient exposure so as to require a warning under California law, and undertaking such an exposure analysis on a product by product basis often is impracticable. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution many companies will apply a warning to their product to inform consumers about the potential exposure and avoid the fines and litigation costs that a failure to warn could bring. In this regard, Flexxaire is no different than most companies distributing or selling consumer products in or into California

SUPPLIER REQUIREMENTS

Flexxaire makes products available to consumers in California such as fans, electronic parts, plastic fan blades, service parts and other components. While California has made the determination that all companies must warn about exposure to products, Flexxaire cannot practicably analyze each of our products and materials to determine if a warning is required. As a result, starting August 30, 2018 and moving forward, customers will start to see some form of a Proposition 65 warning applied to Flexxaire products. Since Flexxaire sells to numerous OEM’s around the world that may sell into California without our knowledge, Flexxaire will be supplying a label to the product or to the product packaging.

Flexxaire always wants customers to make informed decisions about their product purchases and use, as well as the impact they and the products they use may have on the environment. Flexxaire also wants to reassure and remind its customers that notwithstanding these state mandated warnings — which the State of California has stated are “not the same as a regulatory decision that a product is ‘safe’ or ‘unsafe’**. Flexxaire has not made changes to the materials of its products that require the need for this label being used. If you are seeing the label on our products now, it is to meet the State of California requirements for Proposition 65 which came into effect on our products starting August 30, 2018.

CONFLICT MINERALS POSITION STATEMENT

The United States Congress has associated the extraction and trade of tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold (“Conflict Minerals”) with human rights violations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries (collectively, the “DRC”). Flexxaire is committed to the responsible sourcing of Conflict Minerals used in our products. With regard to the extraction and trade of Conflict Minerals, Flexxaire will not knowingly provide support to, contribute to, assist with, or facilitate armed conflict in the DRC

Flexxaire will not knowingly provide any direct or indirect support to non-state armed groups or security forces that illegally control or tax mine sites, transport routes, trade points, or any upstream actors in the supply chain.
Flexxaire will follow due diligence procedures relating to Conflict Minerals which are consistent with a nationally or internationally recognized due diligence framework which may include the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.

Suppliers are encouraged to procure materials through conflict-free sources and, when reasonably feasible, through validated smelters. Flexxaire does not want to prevent its suppliers from sourcing responsibly from legitimate mines located within the DRC as doing so could be detrimental to the local economies and populations.

SUPPLIER REQUIREMENTS

Where possible, Flexxaire will incorporate the principles of responsible sourcing of Conflict Minerals into our contract terms with suppliers and will work with our suppliers to create awareness of these issues within our supply base. We will make our position statement available to our suppliers and expect them to adopt similar positions or policies with respect to their own supply chains.

Flexxaire is not required by law to report Conflict Minerals and their sources contained in its products, however, Flexxaire has numerous customers that are required by law to report them. Flexxaire encourages its suppliers that manufacture components, parts, or products containing Conflict Minerals to procure those materials from conflict-free sources. We expect our suppliers to adopt, implement and communicate to sub-suppliers their positions and policies regarding Conflict Minerals, and where possible, require their down-stream suppliers to adopt and implement similar positions and policies. Flexxaire’s suppliers are expected to work with sub-suppliers to trace conflict materials at least to the smelter level and encourage the use of a standard reporting process (e.g. the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template). Suppliers are encouraged to support industry efforts to enhance the traceability of Conflict Minerals and responsible practices in their global supply chains.
