The European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE)

The European Union had issued in January 2003 the WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC with the intention of minimizing the impacts of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, while increasing the reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery of such wastes. The quality of the environment will be accordingly preserved, protected and improved.

The WEEE Directive has been already implemented in most of the EU Member States during 2005 and should be transposed in the remaining countries during 2006.
