Appendix 3: WEEE Instructions for PerkinElmer
Products
or
A label with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol and a rectangular bar indicates that the
product is covered by the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
and is not to be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste. Any products marked with this
symbol must be collected separately, and in accordance with the regulatory guidelines in
your area.
The objectives of this program are to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the
environment, protect human health, and utilize natural resources prudently and
rationally. Specific treatment of WEEE is indispensable in order to avoid the dispersion of
pollutants into the recycled material or waste stream. Such treatment is the most
effective means of protecting the customer’s environment.
Requirements for waste collection, reuse, recycling, and recovery programs are set by
the regulatory authority at your location. Contact your local responsible person (such as
your laboratory manager) or authorized representative for information regarding
applicable disposal regulations. Contact PerkinElmer at the web site listed below for
information specific to PerkinElmer products.
