Product Feature
Get instant access to supplier FMDs with a complete substance-level material breakdown for each component, all inside Z2 Compliance Manager.
Overview
A full material declaration (FMD) discloses every substance and concentration inside a component. Hunting these forms across supplier site after supplier site is slow and unreliable. Z2 Compliance Manager surfaces FMDs and certificates of compliance directly from its internal database, with links to the public source when a supplier has published one, so you get the substance-level data you need without leaving the platform.
An FMD is more than a yes-or-no flag: it lists the materials and substances in a component down to the reportable concentrations. That granularity lets you confirm a part against REACH SVHC thresholds, RoHS restricted substances, TSCA, PFAS restrictions, and California Proposition 65 rather than trusting a summary statement. Compliance Manager presents each declaration with the full breakdown attached, so engineers and compliance officers verify the underlying chemistry, not just a status label.
Compliance Manager provides FMDs in machine-readable formats including XML and the IPC-1752A standard. Because the data is structured, it imports cleanly into PLM tools and downstream compliance workflows. Pull a declaration once and reuse it to cross-check statuses, populate evidence packages, and feed regulatory reporting, instead of rekeying numbers from a PDF.
This feature draws on Z2's internal database of full material declarations and certificates of compliance, the foundation behind Compliance Manager's coverage. That database delivers 80 percent coverage across more than 270 global environmental regulations on day one, so most FMDs you need are already in hand. For the rest, Z2's compliance team runs supplier outreach to collect the missing declarations.
Full Material Declaration access is one capability within Z2 Compliance Manager, which assesses your parts against global environmental regulations. The FMDs you access here feed directly into compliance assessments, item rollup that traces substances through the product hierarchy, and certificate generation for customer-facing proof. Because Compliance Manager mirrors the PLM environment your teams use, declarations live alongside the rest of your documentation in one repository.

Common Questions
A full material declaration (FMD) is a substance-level disclosure from a supplier listing every material and substance in a component with reportable concentrations, the detail needed to confirm compliance against regulations like REACH and RoHS rather than relying on a summary status.
Compliance Manager provides FMDs in machine-readable XML and the IPC-1752A standard. Because the data is structured, you can import it directly into PLM tools and downstream workflows instead of retyping values from a PDF.
Z2 maintains an internal database of FMDs and certificates of compliance covering a large share of parts out of the box. For declarations not yet on file, Z2's compliance team runs supplier outreach to collect the missing documents.
