WEEE Regulations:
The
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK
law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection,
treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations
also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and
internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste
equipment free of charge.
The
amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year,
making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK.
·
Much of the
UK’s
WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains
can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect
on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health.
·
Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or
recycled. Recycling items helps to save our natural finite resources
and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with
sending electrical goods to landfill.
Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a
part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites.
Fish and Fins Ltd is obliged under these regulations to offer
our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis
when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us.
For
example, if a customer bought a new
Heater from us we would accept their old Heater and prevent
it going into a landfill site by disposing of it safely. Customers
must return their WEEE item to us within 28 days of purchasing their
new item.
Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked
with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below:

Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after
13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal
household waste so that they can be recycled.
