Type of scheme in place: Collective take back scheme. Direct sales: On notifying Avaya, the customer is obliged to return the WEEE to the recycling facility nominated by Avaya at their cost , as defined by the local implementation of the WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC). Avaya will arrange for the disposal of this WEEE in accordance with the applicable legislation. Indirect sales: The Business Partner (BP), distributor or reseller is responsible for registering as an Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) producer with the local authority, in accordance with the local implementation of the WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC). Indirect sales to customers (i.e. Business Partners (BP), distributors and resellers) falls into two categories as follows: if the BP, distributor or reseller resides in the United Kingdom and sells Avaya EEE to a third party, which resides in the United Kingdom, then the BP, distributor or reseller, as importer of the EEE into the United Kingdom, is viewed as being the "producer" of the EEE and by law is responsible for the take back and the disposal of WEEE;
if the BP, distributor or reseller resides in a particular EU member state other than the United Kingdom and sells Avaya EEE to a third party, which resides in the United Kingdom, then the third party, as importer of the EEE into the United Kingdom is viewed as being the "producer" of the EEE and by law is responsible for the take back and disposal of WEEE.
The two categories above are based on the fact that Avaya is part of a collective take back scheme in the United Kingdom. Avaya contact: Katherine Thomas. Telephone #: +44 1483 308 319. Recycling facility: MIREC. Telephone #: +44 1387 723 000. |
