Environment Hazardous substances and disposal

Hazardous substances
This product meets the requirements of the EU's Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive (2002/95/EC), also known as RoHS. This means that it is largely free from certain substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium VI, which pose a risk to the environment.

Disposal
Under the EU's Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment directive (2002/96/EC), also known as the WEEE directive, manufacturers of certain electrical items are required to take back used products and to dispose of them in a clean manner. Shower toilets are not covered by this standard. However, as green pioneers, Geberit wishes to send out a positive signal and has voluntarily applied this requirement to all shower toilets. All used shower toilets can be returned to Geberit free of charge for proper disposal or for recycling. This applies to all EU countries as well as Switzerland and Norway. Please return your used products to Geberit Ltd, New Hythe Business Park, College Road, Aylesford, Kent ME20 7PJ. Collecting and recycling your old electrical equipment separately contributes to protecting the environment and caring for human health.
