Disposal of LINAK products

As LINAK customers often ask us how our products can be disposed of or scrapped, we have prepared this guidance that
enables a classification to different waste fractions for recycling or combustion.
Guidance
We recommend that our products be disassembled as much as possible and divided into different waste groups for recycling or
combustion.
For example, waste can be sorted into metals, plastics, cable scrap, combustible material and recoverable resources.
Some of these main groups can be further divided into subgroups; e.g. metal can be divided into steel/aluminium/copper and
plastic can be divided into ABS/PA/PE/PP.
As an example, the table below breaks down the different components in LINAK products to various recycling groups:

Handset/Control:
By now, almost all our cast plastic parts are supplied with an interior code for plastic type and fibre contents, if any.
