Directive 2012/19/EU on WEEE (Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment)
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive is intended to reduce the amount of harmful substances that are
added to the environment by the inappropriate disposal of these products through municipal waste.
Some of the materials contained in electrical and electronic products can damage the environment and are potentially
hazardous to human health; for this reason the products are marked with the crossed out wheelie bin symbol which
indicates that they must not be disposed of via unsorted municipal waste.
