Recycling
Due to their high content of metal most of the product components can be
recycled. In order to recycle the metal in the best possible way it is
necessary to disassemble the products into individual modules.
The metals contained in the electric and electronic modules can also be
recycled by means of specific separation processes.
The synthetic materials remaining after these processes can be thermally
recycled.
