Wiring Harness Sustainability: RoHS, REACH, and Beyond
In 2025 and beyond, sustainability is not just an environmental goal—it is a strategic imperative for the engineering field. At Celestix Industries India Pvt. Ltd., sustainability drives every phase of our operations, from the selection of raw materials to the validation of finished products. As a leading custom wiring harness manufacturer in India, Celestix delivers RoHS-compliant wiring harnesses, REACH-certified assemblies, and eco-engineered cable systems built for a carbon-neutral future.
As global industries accelerate toward electrification, automation, and the adoption of renewable energy, we are proud to be at the forefront of sustainable manufacturing—producing wiring harnesses that are both environmentally responsible and technologically superior.
1. The Growing Demand for Sustainable Wiring Harnesses in 2025
Global OEMs and Tier-1 manufacturers now expect suppliers to demonstrate measurable sustainability impact. In response, Celestix has evolved into a leader in green wiring harness manufacturing, specializing in low-emission, recyclable, and RoHS- and REACH-compliant harnesses that align with stringent environmental mandates.
Why It Matters Now
Our 2025 sustainability roadmap ensures compliance with evolving directives while maintaining superior electrical, mechanical, and safety performance.
2. Engineering Sustainability from Concept to Completion
At Celestix, each harness begins as a sustainable design project. We apply Design for Environment (DfE) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) principles to minimize waste, optimize material use, and reduce carbon footprint.
Key Engineering Practices
Recyclable wiring harness materials and bio-based polymer insulation.
Phthalate-free harness tapes (REACH compliant) and lead-free crimp terminals (RoHS).
Low VOC harness jackets and recycled TPE sheathings.
Low-carbon footprint wiring looms and lightweight, recyclable EV door harnesses.
Closed-loop harness recycling programs for end-of-life products.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for weight reduction and material optimization.
3. RoHS Compliance: Eliminating Hazardous Substances
The Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS 3) directive mandates the elimination of materials like lead, cadmium, mercury, and hexavalent chromium. Celestix ensures 100% RoHS compliance through systematic supplier validation, in-house audits, and continuous training.
Implementation Highlights
Zero-halogen flame-retardant cables and LSZH EV high-voltage harnesses.
Full compliance with IEC 62821 LSHF cable certification and ISO 6722-1 125°C zero halogen wire.
Low-smoke, zero-halogen tray cables for EV and energy storage.
RoHS decal-free harness labeling to reduce resource waste.
4. REACH Compliance: Chemical Transparency and Traceability
Under REACH (EC 1907/2006), all Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) must be registered and disclosed. Celestix maintains full compliance through supplier collaboration and automated traceability.
REACH Strategy
REACH SCiP database wiring harness registry documentation.
Full REACH Annex XVII harness compliance.
Active tracking for REACH 250 SVHC harness declaration updates.
Elimination of phthalates, PFAS, and high-VOC substances.
Internal audits aligned with EU 2025 directives.
