WEEE COMPLIANCE
WEEE COMPLIANT
The wheelie bin symbol now displayed on equipment supplied by QED signifies that the apparatus
must not be disposed of through the normal municipal waste stream but through a registered
recycling scheme.
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment directive (WEEE) makes producers responsible from
July 1
st
2007 in meeting their obligations, with the fundamental aim of reducing the environmental
impact of electrical and electronic equipment at the end of its life.
QED is now registered with the Environmental Agency as a producer and has joined a recycling
scheme provider who will manage and report on our electrical waste on our behalf.
Our Producer Registration Number is WEE/GB0052TQ
So when your instrument is at the end of its life, please contact the Sales team at QED who will advise
you on the next step in order to help us meet our obligations.
