WEEE Compliance
Your waste plastic cartridges are all classed as WEEE waste, whether they’re laser, printer or toner cartridges. You can tell this by simply looking for the crossed out wheelie bin logo or sticker on the product. It should look like this:
But what does it mean?
Any product which has this logo is considered WEEE waste and must therefore be dealt with in accordance with the WEEE Directive Regulations, which involves treating the waste appropriately in an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF).
If you decide to simply throw your waste cartridges away you are breaking the law. Your waste MUST be sent to a permitted waste agent who has access to an ATF.
Non compliant companies are in breach of both the Waste Regulations and Waste Framework Directive as well as the Environmental Protection Act.
