What is WEEE?

• The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations (2006 No. 3289) (WEEE) is a new UK legislation designed to address the environmental impact of waste electrical and electronic equipment
• The regulations have been put in place to ensure that products are recycled using best available treatment, recovery and recycling techniques to ensure human health and high environmental protection
• Both Konica Minolta Online and our customers can assist in recycling waste electrical and electronic equipment
• We cannot recycle it unless you return it, so our customers have an important role to play in helping us to recycle
• We will undertake their responsibility as both a Producer and a Distributor to dispose of these goods in line with European legislation
