WEEE Instructions for PerkinElmer Products
or
A label with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol and a rectangular bar indicates that the product is
covered by the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive and is not to be
disposed of as unsorted municipal waste. Any products marked with this symbol must be
collected separately, according to the regulatory guidelines in your area.
The objectives of this program are to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the
environment, protect human health, and utilize natural resources prudently and rationally.
Specific treatment of WEEE is indispensable in order to avoid the dispersion of pollutants into
the recycled material or waste stream. Such treatment is the most effective means of protecting
the customer’s environment.
Requirements for waste collection, reuse, recycling, and recovery programs vary by regulatory
authority at your location. Contact your local responsible body (e.g., your laboratory manager) or
authorized representative for information regarding applicable disposal regulations. Contact
PerkinElmer at the web site listed below for information specific to PerkinElmer products.
