The objectives of the European Community's environment policy are, in particular, to
preserve, protect and improve the quality of the environment, protect human health and
utilise natural resources prudently and rationally. That policy is based on the
precautionary principle and principles that preventive action should be taken, that
environmental damage should as a priority be rectified at source.
Separate collection of waste is the precondition to ensure reuse and recycling of waste
that is generated at the disposal of electrical or electronical equipment and is necessary to
achieve the chosen level of protection of human health and the environment in the
European Community.
More particularly, certain materials and components of waste electrical and electronical
equipment needs selective treatment as their injudicious handling or disposing of on or
into land, water or air would represent a major threat to the environment and human
health.
In order to facilitate collection and treatment separated from normal domestic waste,
electrical and electronical equipment is marked with the following logo:
Not only are you by law not allowed to dispose of the waste equipment via other waste-
streams, but we encourage you to actively contribute to the success of such collection and
to the common good and better quality of life of present and future generations.
For more information on the correct disposal of this product please contact your local
