The wheelie bin has absolutely nothing to do with the RoHS directive.



The wheelie bin symbol relates purely to the WEEE directive to indicate

the product is WEEE.



To facilitate the identification of "historic" WEEE (placed on market

pre 13 Aug 2005) and obligated new WEEE (placed from 13 Aug 2005), the

crossed out bin must be accompanied by the date of manufacture or to

signify post 13 Aug WEEE the x-bin with underscore may be used.  See EN

50419.



Regards,

Chris

Hello all,



I have another question that has arisen. I do believe I may have seen a

comment in the past regarding the possible requirement to have an

additional

mark added to the Wheelie Bin logo to identify product manufactured RoHS

compliant. I do believe this is to help recycling identify those items

manufactured prior to July 2006 that are not RoHS compliant.



Along with this, since deconstruct documentation is to be required or

optional at the request of the recycler (depending on member state),

does

one need to create a deconstruct for product that would be sold non RoHS

compliant between August 2005 and July 2006??
