Recycling Information
WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment),
Recycling of Electronic Products
Europe, United Kingdom
In 2006 the European Union introduced regulations (WEEE) for the collection and recycling of all waste electrical
and electronic equipment. It is no longer allowable to simply throw away electrical and electronic equipment.
Instead, these products must enter the recycling process.
Each individual EU member state has implemented the WEEE regulations into national law in slightly different
ways. Please follow your national law when you want to dispose of any electrical or electronic products. More
details can be obtained from your national WEEE recycling agency.
Germany / Deutschland Rücknahme Elektroschrott und Batterie-Entsorgung
Die Europäische Union hat mit der WEEE Direktive Regelungen für die Verschrottung und das Recycling von
Elektro- und Elektronikprodukten geschaffen. Diese wurden im Elektro- und Elektronikgerätegesetz – ElektroG in
deutsches Recht umgesetzt. Das Entsorgen von Elektro- und Elektronikgeräten über die Hausmülltonne ist
verboten! Diese Geräte müssen den Sammel- und Rückgabesystemen zugeführt werden! Dort werden sie
kostenlos entgegen genommen. Die Kosten für den weiteren Recyclingprozess übernehmen die Gerätehersteller.
LINDY bietet deutschen Endverbrauchern ein kostenloses Rücknahmesystem an, beachten Sie bitte, dass
Batterien und Akkus den Produkten vor der Rückgabe an das Rücknahmesystem entnommen werden müssen und
über die Sammel- und Rückgabesysteme für Batterien separat entsorgt werden müssen. Ausführliche
Informationen zu diesen Themen finden Sie stets aktuell auf der LINDY Webseite im Fußbereich.
France
En 2006, l'union Européenne a introduit la nouvelle réglementation (DEEE) pour le recyclage de tout équipement
électrique et électronique.
Chaque Etat membre de l’ Union Européenne a mis en application la nouvelle réglementation DEEE de manières
légèrement différentes. Veuillez suivre le décret d’application correspondant à l’élimination des déchets électriques
ou électroniques de votre pays.

Nel 2006 l’unione europea ha introdotto regolamentazioni (WEEE) per la raccolta e il riciclo di apparecchi elettrici
ed elettronici. Non è più consentito semplicemente gettare queste apparecchiature, devono essere riciclate. Ogni
stato membro dell’ EU ha tramutato le direttive WEEE in leggi statali in varie misure. Fare riferimento alle leggi del
proprio Stato quando si dispone di un apparecchio elettrico o elettronico.
Per ulteriori dettagli fare riferimento alla direttiva WEEE sul riciclaggio del proprio Stato.
