Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) Compliance
The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste from Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection, treatment, recovery,
and recycling of electrical and electronic waste products. The objective of the
WEEE Directive is to assign the responsibility for the disposal of associated
hazardous waste to either the producers or users of these products. As of August
13, 2005, producers or users are required to recycle electrical and electronic
equipment at end of its useful life, and may not dispose of the equipment in
landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some EU member states may
have different deadlines.)
In accordance with this EU Directive, companies selling electric or electronic
devices in the EU will affix labels indicating that such products must be
properly recycled. (See our website for more information on dates and deadlines
for compliance.) Contact your local sales representative for information on
returning these products for recycling. Equipment that complies with the EU
directive will be marked with a WEEE-compliant emblem, as shown in Figure
P-2.
