DIRECTIVE 2012/19/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of
4 July 2012 on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol on the equipment or its packaging indicates that
the product at the end of its useful life must be collected separately from other waste.
Therefore, any products that have reached the end of their useful life must be given to
waste disposal centres specialising in separate collection of waste electrical and
electronic equipment. As an alternative to autonomous disposal,
the device you want to dispose of can be given back to the retailer at the time of purchasing new
similar equipment.
At electronic product retailers with a sales area of at least 400 m2, it is possible to return, without
any obligation to buy, electronic products to dispose of with dimensions below 25 cm free of
charge.
The separate collection for delivering the equipment to recycling, treatment and environmentally
compatible disposal helps avoid possible negative effects on the environment and health and
promotes the reuse and/or recycling of materials that make up the equipment.
