WEEE Compliance
The waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) regulations came into force in January 2007 and encourage companies who produce or distribute electrical equipment to reduce the impact of the product on the environment. This is achieved by obliging companies to pay recycling and/or collection of the product at the end of its useful life based on their market share.
Do the WEEE regulations apply to your business?
If you are one of the following:
- A manufacturer who places electrical equipment onto the UK market
- An importer who imports electrical equipment for the UK market
- You sell electrical equipment to the general public
The answer is probably ‘yes’ and you will need to take further action.
If you think you may be obligated under the WEEE regulations, please sign up to the Budget Pack FREE info scheme by clicking here...
