Purpose This publication provides an overview of GE Reciprocating Engines’ position on Prohibited and Restricted Substances in our process and products. In this context, the term “substances” refers generically to elements, compounds and chemicals. There are many existing and emerging local and regional regulations that affect operations and products, which can be complex to understand. For example, an regulation may apply to a consumer product but not to commercial products such as ours. This guide summarizes the key GE Substances standards for informational purposes. Always refer to the current standard “TRS 002 Supplier Compliance Requirements - Declaration of Hazardous & Regulated Substances” which is posted on the GE Supplier Portal CLICK HERE

Supplier Responsibility Compliance to these standards is mandatory for all suppliers that provide any product or service to GE Jenbacher and Waukesha Sites. Suppliers who provide any product or service to GE Reciprocating Engines are wholly responsible for the end product provided to GE, irrespective of how many sub-suppliers (Tier 2, 3, etc.) may be in the supply chain flow. The end product supplied includes partially or finished assemblies, components, packaging, chemicals and consumable processing substances. It is the responsibility of the supplier to verify that the substances listed are not in any products or substances supplied to GE per the referenced threshold. At initial qualification to supply any product, part or material to GE, suppliers shall provide GE a Declaration, to certify compliance on Hazardous and Regulated Substances & Materials as prescribed by GE Form 2206.
