The WEEE Directive also aims to improve the environmental performance of businesses that manufacture, supply, use, recycle and recover electrical and electronic equipment. If you are an importer, rebrander or manufacturer of new electrical or electronic equipment and batteries, then it is likely that you will need to comply with the UK’s WEEE Regulations, which in part implement the WEEE Directive. You may also have obligations under the WEEE Regulations if you are a business with electrical or electronic equipment to dispose of, or if you sell electrical or electronic equipment.
