WEEE Compliance Statement Valid for customers in EU countries
We are committed to being a good corporate citizen. As part of that commitment,
we strive to maintain an environmentally conscious manufacturing operation. The
European Union (EU) has enacted a directive on product recycling (Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment, WEEE). Products falling under the scope of the WEEE
Directive are identified with a crossed over “wheelie bin” symbol on the product
label, as indicated. To forward a product for recycling or proper disposal, return
them to OMNI International. Before forwarding a product for recycling or disposal, it
should be emptied of all liquid and cleaned from harmful residues. When returning
a product to OMNI International, this should be done in accordance with the material
return procedures supplied separately by OMNI International.
Do not dispose of as unsorted municipal waste.
See the OMNI International website (www.omni-inc.com) for more information.
