Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations

Thursday, 26 May

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations require that producers of electrical equipment are obliged to contribute financially towards the recycling of electrical goods. These regulations also require that all retailers actively assist in delivering a UK wide WEEE collection infrastructure and encourage the consumers to recycle electronic equipment. Palintest is committed to establishing and enforcing responsible environmental practices. We are actively contributing towards a national fund to assist local councils with the development of existing waste electronics collection facilities.

Our electrical products must not be treated as landfill waste. Look out for the crossed out wheelie bin symbol on our electrical goods.

This symbol means that you should not put this item in your normal waste stream. It is your responsibility to ensure that WEEE is recycling via appropriate means. Your nearest electronic recycling site can be found at www.recycle-more.co.uk Note that Palintest are not responsible for the content of external websites. Alternatively, you may return units to Palintest where we will organise this for you. Please discuss with your Sales contact.
