European Union
Disposal of waste electrical equipment and end-of-life lamps as domestic waste is
prohibited. Our products are business-to-business products (B2B) in the sense of the
WEEE Directive (Waste Electrical Electronic Equipment).
Sartorius has labeled all devices subject to the WEEE Directive with a crossed-out
waste bin with a white bar underneath.
This symbol indicates that disposal of the product as domestic waste is prohibited.
Different European member countries have complied with the WEEE Directive by
implementing their own national laws, which makes it impossible for Sartorius to
offer consistent disposal solutions throughout Europe.
The local distributor (importer) from each country is responsible for complying with
these national laws. For proper disposal of waste equipment and end-of-life lamps in
accordance with the respective national regulations in the European Union countries
mentioned (except Germany), please contact your local dealer or our Service Center.
All Other Countries
For disposal of waste equipment and end-of-life lamps in accordance with the
respective national regulations in countries other than those mentioned above, please
contact your local dealer our Service Center or the local authorities.
