Labelling

All producers must label the electronic equipment and batteries covered by the Ordinance with the crossed out wheelie bin symbol as well as with the information that the product has been placed on the market after 12th August 2005. This is either symbolized by a thick line under the bin, or by the date as stated in SS-EN 50419.

If it does not fit on the product or battery due to size or function, it can instead be printed on the packaging, in written user instructions and in warranty information that comes with the product.

For exact information regarding the label, we refer to the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency.
