Collection and Recycling Arrangements in Sweden

Under the Sweden Regulation on Producer Responsibility for Electrical and Electronic Equipment which came into force on August 13th 2005 (as amended by 2014:1075), for equipment that you buy from Barco after August 13th 2005, Barco is required to provide arrangements for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of the waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) that your new purchase replaces, on a one-for-one, like-for-like basis. The old equipment that your new purchase from Barco replaces is referred to as Historic WEEE.

Under the Regulations, Barco is also required to provide arrangements for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of any new electrical and electronic equipment that you buy from Barco after August 13th 2005, when that new equipment eventually becomes waste. This is referred to as New WEEE. 

In Sweden, Barco has joined the El-Kretsen compliance scheme to manage all aspects of WEEE collection and recycling. Please contact El-Kretsen directly to understand what arrangements have been made to allow Barco customers to send waste equipment for recycling:
