Novatech & the WEEE Regulations

In order to meet the requirements of the WEEE regulations (waste electrical and electronic eqiuipment), producers of electrical and electronic equipment are required to contribute financially for the recycling of household "waste electrical products". To meet these requirements, Novatech is discharging its distributor obligations through Volpak's Distributor Takeback Scheme (DTS) Registration ID 5493.

This scheme ensures that all registered companies contribute to the cost of processing WEEE through your local amenity processing site and is helping to fund a national network of collection facilities for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment.

By taking your waste electrical products to one of the registered amenity sites, customers can be confidant that their product will be subjected to a monitored and controlled recycling process, thereby preventing these products being sent to landfill.

To find your local amenity site please visit www.recycle-more.co.uk.

To help customers identify Waste Electrical or Electronic Equipment, a crossed out wheeled bin logo has been affixed to the product. WEEE is a fast growing waste stream, containing hazardous byproducts. The DTS at your local registered amenity sites will ensure that these products are recycled to ensure that they do not damage the environment through landfill waste.

Recycling portable waste batteries

Under the waste battery regulations, Novatech contribute to a take back scheme for all portable waste batteries.

Customers are advised that they can return all waste batteries to any of the Novatech shops free of charge, where they will be collected for recycling.

Please do not post waste batteries.

Most supermarkets and shops that sell batteries will have waste battery collection bins and also some Libraries or Schools.

Customers may find stores in their local area more convenient.
