Environmental compliance
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) directive
Panametrics is an active participant in Europe’s Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) take-back
initiative, directive 2012/19/EU.
The equipment that you bought has required the extraction
and use of natural resources for its production. It may
contain hazardous substances that could impact health
and the environment.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in
our environment and to diminish the pressure on the natural
resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-
back systems. Those systems will reuse or recycle most of
the materials of your end life equipment in a sound way.
The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol invites you to use
those systems.
If you need more information on the collection, reuse and
recycling systems, please contact your local or regional
waste administration.
Visit https://www.bakerhughesds.com/health-safety-and-
environment-hse for take-back instructions and more
information about this initiative.
