Product Disposal

9.1. Waste Electrical & Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) Regulations 2006
The aim of the WEEE Regulations is to reduce the amount of
waste going to landfill.
All Eschmann products that must be recycled in
accordance with the WEEE Regulations are marked
with the "wheelie bin" symbol opposite.
What To Do
Please contact Eschmann when one of our products, marked
with the symbol, reaches the end of its working life. We
will be able to advise on how to recycle and dispose of the
product correctly.
Note: If we request that the product is returned to Eschmann,
it must be decontaminated first. We will request a certificate.
The WEEE Regulations 2006 came into force on 1
July 2007. Manufacturers are held responsible for
recycling electrical and electronic equipment (EEE)
placed on the market after 13 August 2005 that has
reached the end of its working life. Older equipment
is unaffected. The regulations also place obligations
to comply on distributors, retailers and end users of
the equipment.
