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.
Battery Remark:
Do not put empty batteries in your domestic waste bin as they will not be recycled. Empty batteries can be returned
for recycling at our trade counter or at your local household recycling centre.
The raw materials enclosed in batteries such as Zinc, Iron and Nickel can be reused to a very large proportion. The
recycling of batteries and disused/obsolete electronic equipment is one of the most efficient environment protection
actions you can easily take.
Germany / Deutschland Rücknahme Elektroschrott und Batterie-Entsorgung
Die Europäische Union hat mit der WEEE Direktive Regelungen für die Verschrottung und das Recycling von Elektround 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.
Remarque sur les piles et batteries
En tant que consommateur final, vous êtes tenus de restituer toutes les piles et batteries usagées. Il est clairement
interdit de les jeter avec les ordures ménagères ! Les piles et batteries contenant des substances nocives sont
marquées par le symbole ci-dessus. Vous pouvez déposer gratuitement vos piles ou batteries usagées dans les
centres de collecte de votre commune, dans nos succursales ou dans tous les points de vente de piles ou
batteries. Vous respecterez ainsi la loi et contribuerez à la protection de l'environnement !
