Disposal of LINAK products
As LINAK customers often ask us how our products can be disposed of or scrapped we have prepared this guidance that
enables a classification to different waste fractions for recycling or combustion.
Guidance
We recommend to disassemble our product into as many fractions as possible at the disposal and try to make it recycable. As
examples of main groups within waste fractions we can mention:
Metal, plastic, cable shoe, combustible waste and collection for recovery.
Some of these main groups can be subdivided, e.g. metal can be divided into iron, stainless steel and aluminium and alloy
steel. Plastic can e.g. be divided into ABS, PA, PE and PP.
As an example of sorting, please find below a list stating in which recycling groups the different components of LINAK
products ought to be placed:
By now almost all our cast plastic parts are supplied with an interior code for plastic type and fibre contents, if any.
