UK WEEE Regulation 2006
recycle-more logoRecycling Household Electrical Equipment

With effect from July 2007, the UK’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations require that all producers of electrical equipment are now obliged to pay for recycling of household electrical goods, where previously this bill was met by councils or items were not recycled at all. These regulations also require that all distributors both actively assist in delivering a UK-wide WEEE collection infrastructure and encourage the participation of consumers in recycling electronic equipment.

Producer / Distributor Obligations

Vita-Mix Corporation has joined the approved WEEE Care Compliance Scheme in order to meet the producer obligations.

Vita-Mix Corporation is fulfilling their distributor obligations as a member of the Distributor Take-Back-Scheme (DTS) and is providing consumer information through www.recycle-more.co.uk. Please visit this website for more recycling information and to locate the nearest recycling centre.

Please be advised that hazardous substances (rust etc.) can contaminate water and soil if left in landfill sites. This in turn can have a detrimental effect on human health and environment. Please start recycling today!

Wheeled Bin Symbol

WEEE logoVita-Mix Corporation has displayed the wheeled bin symbol on the packaging as well as on the data label of the machine. Any product marked with this symbol was manufactured after August 13, 2005. These machines are classed as WEEE when they are no longer needed and should be disposed of separately to household waste.
