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 electro
equipment. It is no lo
nger 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 fol
your national law when you want to dispose of any electrical or electronic products. More details can be obtained from your n
WEEE recycling agency.
