Plus, your company will be able to pinpoint and pull reports on any substances of concern (SoC) to meet customer and market requirements.

The best way to get started is through education and training. There are multiple resources directly on the CDX website or you could consider taking Tetra Tech’s hands-on, online CDX Training.

No. Per the IMDS Terms of Use, only authorized automotive OEMs and their direct supply chain can use IMDS. If your customer is non-automotive and not part of the automotive community, they cannot use IMDS. You will need to re-enter the data into CDX or purchase the necessary licenses to transfer data from IMDS to CDX using the data transfer option.

CDX can support you in meeting a variety of regulations:

  • REACH Candidate List
  • RoHS
  • ELV
  • GADSL
  • Batteries
  • Packaging
  • International Maritime Organization (IMO)
  • REACH Annex XIV and XVII
  • Aerospace and Defense Declarable Substance List (AD-DSL)
  • California Proposition 65

CDX can also support conflict minerals reporting, SCIP database reporting and customer-specific requirements.

Yes. A user can use the MDS Request feature to request data from suppliers. Requests can be made to both registered and unregistered suppliers. Unregistered suppliers will receive an email with registration details. Bulk requests can be made to registered suppliers.

FMD stands for full material declaration or 100% declaration. FMD will provide your customer with the necessary details to determine compliance. It is likely your customer will not have to request additional information from you when regulations, exemptions or substances of concerns change year after year. FMD requires the disclosure of each homogenous material used in your product and each material’s substance composition. If you have concerns regarding proprietary formulations, CDX has options for marking substances as confidential.

Unfortunately, CDX cannot tell you whether or not a product is compliant; it will still require due diligence and compliance expertise. However, CDX does include multiple options to help the user evaluate compliance. These options include data checks identifying warnings and errors, where-used analysis reports, and data filtering for specific regulations and substance lists.

Yes. It is free to create and submit a datasheet and to create a conflict minerals declaration. However, there are some features that are only available with a paid MDS or CMD license, such accepting and rejecting supplier MDS and creating internal substance lists and regulations.
