Take-Back of Waste Electrical Equipment
We are committed to environmentally responsible behavior and therefore provide you with simple and free-of-charge options for disposing of your end-of-life electrical equipment.
The operator of electrical equipment is responsible for its proper disposal. Obsolete and unwanted electrical equipment does not belong in unsorted municipal waste—instead, it should be handed over through designated collection points, known as take-back points, from where it is sent for reuse or recycling.
The operator of electrical equipment is informed—by means of the symbols shown (Symbol 1 and 2)—that the electrical equipment in question must not be disposed of with household waste. All new electrical devices are marked with such symbols. The symbol may appear directly on the device, on its packaging, or in the user manual or warranty certificate.

Information for international customers and distributors (outside the Czech Republic)
Please note that the collection systems listed above (REMA, Buď líný, etc.) are available mainly for the territory of the Czech Republic.
If you distribute our products in other EU Member States or internationally, you assume the role of Importer/Producer in that territory. You are responsible for complying with all local national regulations for electrical and electronic waste (e.g., registration, reporting, and disposal fees). The required marking (crossed-out wheeled bin symbol) is present on our products to facilitate compliance across all markets.
Why recycle?
Electrical appliances contain many recyclable materials such as plastics, glass, and metals (zinc, iron, manganese, nickel, cadmium, lead etc.). Some of these substances are highly hazardous to the environment and human health, especially mercury, lead, and cadmium.
By handing over electrical equipment to a take-back point, we help conserve primary raw material resources through recycling and simultaneously protect the environment from potential harm caused by improper disposal.
Improper disposal of this type of waste may be subject to fines in accordance with national regulations.
