Environmental notes and recycling
Lenze has been certified to the worldwide DIN EN ISO 14001 environmental management standard for many
years. As part of our environmental policy and the associated climate responsibility, please note the
following information on hazardous ingredients and the recycling of Lenze products and their packaging:
Lenze products are partly subject to the EU Directive 2011/65/EU on the restriction of certain hazardous substances in
electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS). This is documented accordingly in the EU declaration of conformity and
with the CE mark.
Lenze products are not subject to EU Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), but
some contain batteries/rechargeable batteries in accordance with EU Directive 2006/66/EC (Battery Directive). The
disposal route, which is separate from household waste, is indicated by corresponding labels with the "crossed-out
trash can".
Any batteries/rechargeable batteries included are designed to last the life of the product and do not need to be
replaced or otherwise removed by the end user.
Lenze products are usually sold with cardboard or plastic packaging. This packaging complies with EU Directive
94/62/EC on packaging and packaging waste (Packaging Directive). The required disposal route is indicated by material-
specific labels with the "recycling triangle".
Example: "21 - other cardboard"
REACH Lenze products are subject to the European Regulation EC No. 1907/2006 (REACH Chemicals Regulation). When used as
intended, exposure of substances to humans, animals and the environment is excluded.
Lenze products are industrial electrical and electronic products and are disposed of professionally. Both the
mechanical and electrical components such as electric motors, gearboxes or inverters contain valuable raw
materials that can be recycled and reused. Proper recycling and thus maintaining the highest possible level
of recyclability is therefore important and sensible from an economic and ecological point of view.
•
Coordinate professional disposal with your waste disposal company.
•
Separate mechanical and electrical components, packaging, hazardous waste (e.g. gear oils) and
batteries/rechargeable batteries wherever possible.
•
Dispose of the separated waste in an environmentally sound and proper manner (no household waste or
municipal bulky waste).
