Smartcard consultancy and testing services
RFI is the first organisation in the UK to offer independent, commercial Smartcard development testing, consultancy and type approval services to manufacturers of Smartcard readers and terminals.
Grant Taylor, head of RFI's wireless services commented, "This is an important step for RFI that will strengthen our seamless delivery of a complete product approvals solution to our customers".
"I believe this to be the beginning of a solid business relationship with Environ which has the potential to grow stronger as the relevant directives mature".
The UK WEEE Regulations require manufacturers and importers of electrical and electronic equipment to join an approved PCS by the 15th March 2007.
The B2BWEEE-Scheme is now open for member registration, which will give business-to-business producers the opportunity to join well before the deadline.
The scheme offers major benefits to its members in terms of service and flexibility.
For members who do not have existing WEEE collection and recycling arrangements, the Scheme can install a web-based solution on the company's website.
Members who already have collection and recycling arrangements can continue to use these, subject to a short audit of these arrangements by RFI.
