The ban also covers cadmium in all plastics and brazing sticks, which are used to join dissimilar materials as fumes that are released during this process are highly dangerous if inhaled.
Keelatakse ka kaadmiumi kasutamine kõigis plastiktoodetes ja jootevarbades, mida kasutatakse erinevate materjalide ühendamiseks, kuna sellisel jootmisel tekkiv suits on sissehingamise korral väga kahjulik.
