Marking of electrical and electronic equipment in accordance with Article 11(2) of Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE) Mit freundlichen Grüßen Yours sincerely Dipl.-Ing. Michael Loerzer Managing Director Regulatory Affairs Specialist GLOBALNORM Fon: +49 30 6392 3860, Direct Call: 3861 Fax: +49 30 6392 3863 Rudower Chaussee 29 12489 Berlin Germany <http://www.Globalnorm.de> www.Globalnorm.de ----- Original Message ----- From: christine...@aol.com To: emc-p...@ieee.org Sent: Thursday, September 01, 2005 6:59 PM Subject: WEEE Process for US Mfr's Hi All, We design telecom equipment in the US, it is manufactured by our CM's in China, and we sell it into Euorope through our internal sales force which does not have offices in Europe. Since our products are not sold to consumers, do we have to worry about setting up a recycling program to meet the WEEE directive? Currently, we are labeling our products with the Wheelie Bin and providing verbiage in our manual stating we are WEEE compliant. We believe that our end users/customers in Europe would be responsible for any Recycling process /program. Are we getting this right or do we need to contract with an EU authorized agent to setup a collection / recycling program for our equipment.
