WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment),
Recycling of Electronic Products
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
Die Europäische Union hat mit der WEEE Direktive umfassende Regelungen für
die Verschrottung und das Recycling von Elektro- und Elektronikprodukten
geschaffen. Diese wurden von der Bundesregierung im Elektro- und
Elektronikgerätegesetz – ElektroG in deutsches Recht umgesetzt.
Dieses Gesetz verbietet vom 24.März 2006 an das Entsorgen von
entsprechenden, auch alten, Elektro- und Elektronikgeräten über die
Hausmülltonne! Diese Geräte müssen den lokalen Sammelsystemen bzw.
örtlichen Sammelstellen zugeführt werden! Dort werden sie kostenlos entgegen
genommen. Die Kosten für den weiteren Recyclingprozess übernimmt die
Gesamtheit der Gerätehersteller.
France
En 2006, l'union Européenne a introduit la nouvelle réglementation (WEEE)
pour le recyclage de tout équipement électrique et électronique.
Chaque Etat membre de l’ Union Européenne a mis en application la nouvelle
réglementation WEEE de manières légèrement différentes. Veuillez suivre le
décret d’application correspondant à l’élimination des déchets électriques ou
électroniques de votre pays.
Italy
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
