1.9 Recycling and environmental protection

Honeywell has designed the transport packaging of the measuring
instrument to be environmentally friendly. Packaging materials are always
selected consistently with a view to recycling. The cardboard items used
constitute secondary raw materials for the paperboard and paper industry.
The Instapak® foam packaging items can be recycled and reused in most
countries. Plastic sheeting and strips/bands are also made of recyclable
plastic. At Honeywell, subsequent recycling and disposal are already
elements of the product development process. When selecting the materials,
we allow for reusability of the materials, suitability of materials and
subassemblies for dismantling and separation, and the risks of
environmental pollution and health risks when recycling and dumping on
landfill sites. The measuring instruments mainly consist of metallic materials
which can be melted down again in steelworks and metallurgical plants and
which can thus be reused a virtually unlimited number of times. The plastics
used are listed in Annex B to ensure that the materials can be sorted and
separated for the purposes of subsequent recycling.
Like all mineral oils (e.g. for motor vehicles), the oil supplied with the device
must be disposed of in an environmentally sound way.
