What is WEEE?
WEEE is the term applied to all electrical and
electronic equipment (TVs, PCs, white goods and vending
machines to name but a few) when it is to be disposed of
at the end of its life.
Under the legislation, all producers must register with an approved compliance scheme which will discharge their WEEE obligations for the recovery and recycling of equipment. In addition, producers are already marking all equipment with the “crossed out” wheelie bin symbol and must supply data on the volume of equipment put on the market.
For more information on the WEEE directive please
visit the DTI's website.
What is c10c?
The vending industry has prepared for
WEEE by forming the “not for profit”
company, c10c. All major vending machine
Producers/Importers have come together
under c10c to act together to discharge
WEEE obligations in the most economic
way. By “working as one “, vending
machine producers will ensure the best
possible solution for the Vending
Industry as a whole.
