WEEE FAQ

What are the WEEE Regulations?

The WEEE regulations means that as a producer of "WEEE" Safetyshop has an obligation to accept back from customers any electrical and electronic equipment we have put onto the market since 13th August 2005.

All electrical and electronic equipment put onto the market after this date should by law, be marked with the wheelie bin logo with a line underneath it. As required by law, Brady UK (Safetyshop is a division of Brady UK) has registered under one of the approved compliance schemes. The scheme we are part of is run by Valpak. As such we are obligated to make available to our customers our WEEE Producer Number to prove our registration.

Our WEEE Producer Number is: WEE/BE00448Y and for batteries BPRNOO239

What does this mean in terms of products?

This means that should a customer have a product purchased from Safetyshop which they need to dispose of and they have purchased since 13th of August 2005, then they can send it back to Safetyshop where we will dispose of it according to the new directive.

Our website contains an online form which customers are required to complete in order to be issued with a WEEE returns number to action the return. This will enable us to trace and measure the amount of WEEE we take back as required by the law. Once the form is completed and submitted to Safetyshop we will contact you to advise you of your returns number and how to return the product. Batteries are not supposed to be sent back via post.

What about electronic and electrical equipment sold before 13th of August 2005?

We are only obligated to take back electronic and electrical equipment put onto the market before 13th August 2005 (also known as "Historic WEEE") if it is being replaced by a like-for-like product. For example, a customer replacing their old office fan with a new office fan Safetyshop would accept back the old fan. Furthermore, if "WEEE" or "Historic WEEE" is a non Safetyshop item (e.g. an office fan made by a competitor), and is being replaced by a Safetyshop fan, then we may also take back the old fan.

Will there be any additional charges for this implementaion of WEEE?

No - Safetyshop will not be making additional charges for this.
