Trimble is actively looking at minimizing packaging waste and its effect on the environment and requires suppliers to provide packaging materials that incorporate considerations of environmental impacts of discarded packing materials.

Distributor WEEE obligations

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). Reseller acknowledges and agrees that Reseller qualifies as, and will be considered the 'producer' of the Products within the meaning of any laws, regulations or other statutory schemes providing for the marking, collection, recycling, take-back, and/or disposal of electrical and electronic equipment (collectively, "WEEE Regulations") in any jurisdiction whatsoever, (such as for example national laws implementing EC Directive 2002/96 on waste electrical and electronic equipment, as amended), so long as an exemption from compliance is not available.

Information regarding the German Battery Act (BattG)

Some Trimble products contain non-rechargeable and rechargeable batteries. The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol on rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries means that batteries may not be disposed of as household waste. In case a battery would contain more than 0,0005% mercury (Hg), 0,002% cadmium (Cd) or 0,004% lead (Pb) (by weight), a chemical symbol (Hg, Cd, respectively Pb) will be displayed below the symbol.

• Non-rechargeable batteries and rechargeable batteries cannot be disposed of with household waste. Individuals having access to or owning these types of batteries are legally obliged to return and recycle used batteries and rechargeable batteries. This can be done free of charge at the retail store or at another certified collection point in the area.

• Batteries can contain substances that are hazardous to the environment and human health. Lithium batteries especially should be handled with special care. Separate collection and recycling of used batteries will help to reduce the negative impact of batteries on the environment and human health. We recommend trying to avoid generating battery waste as much as possible. Use batteries that are rechargeable and make sure that batteries and equipment containing batteries are always properly stored.

• As a user of batteries, please also consider options to arrange batteries for re-use whenever possible.
