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 (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.
