INFORMATION FOR USERS OF PROFESSIONAL EQUIPMENT
From "Actuation of Directive 2012/19/EU regarding Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE)"
The symbol of a crossed waste bin found on equipment or its packing indicates that at the end of the product's
useful life it must be collected separately from other waste so that it can be properly treated and recycled.
In par cular, separate collec on of this professional equipment when no longer in use is organised and
managed:
a)directly by the user when the equipment was placed on the market before 31 December 2010 and the user
personally decides to eliminate it without replacing it with new equivalent equipment designed for the same
use;
b)by the manufacturer, that is to say the subject which was the fi rst to introduce and market new equipment
that replaces previous equipment, when the user decides to eliminate equipment placed on the market
before 31 December 2010 at the end of its useful life and replace it with an equivalent product designed for
the same use. In this la er case the user may ask the manufacturer to collect the exis ng equipment;
c) by the manufacturer, that is to say the subject which was the fi rst to introduce and market new equipment
that replaces previous equipment, if it was placed on the market a er 31 December 2010;
Suitable separate collec on for the purpose of forwarding discarded equipment for recycling, treatment or
disposal in an environmentally friendly way helps to avoid possible nega ve eff ects on the environment and
human health and encourages re-use and/or recycling of the materials making up the equipment.
The sanc ons currently provided for by law shall apply to users who dispose of products in unauthorised
ways.
