Waste electrical equipment

Information requirements in accordance with the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG)

Waste devices that are to be disposed of do not belong in the household waste. On the one hand, waste electrical equipment contains valuable resources that can be recovered and reused in recycling processes. It also contains harmful substances that must not be released into the environment under any circumstances.

Here you will find information about the rights and obligations arising from the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG).

The "crossed-out dustbin" symbol means that devices with this label are to be sent for disposal separately from unsorted municipal waste. Disposal in household waste, such as in the residual waste bin or yellow waste bin, is prohibited. Avoid incorrect sorting by disposing of these devices correctly at the special collection and return points.

If the products contain batteries, accumulators or lamps that can be removed from the waste device without destroying it, these must be removed and disposed of separately before disposal of the waste device.

Waste electrical equipment contains valuable metals and other materials that can be recycled.

This saves resources and is good for the environment. However, electrical devices often contain harmful substances. We are committed to the preservation of our environment and the sustainable conservation of natural resources.
