Eco Participation - Sustainable development - WEEE

Eco-participation for WEEE:
When you buy a new electrical or electronic appliance, you help finance the collection, reuse and recycling of old equipment by paying an "eco-participation". All EEE prices shown on the site include the eco-participation fee. The collection and recycling of end-of-life electrical appliances is managed by non-profit eco-organizations approved by the public authorities. The amount of the eco-participation is calculated by these eco-organizations on the basis of the cost of the processing operations required for recycling.

We can help you become a recycler!

If your old appliance still works or can be repaired, you can :

Resell it on the second-hand market.
Entrust it to a social and solidarity association such as Envie, Emmaüs or Réseau des Ressourceries.

DEEE

This pictogram, affixed to a device, means that the equipment must not be disposed of in the household waste garbage can. This appliance will be collected separately
for reuse (if the appliance is still working or can be repaired) or for recycling and recovery (energy recovery: incineration with energy recovery).
If the appliance you wish to dispose of is marked with this symbol, do not throw it in your household garbage can!
WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) contains hazardous substances (e.g. lead, mercury, refrigerant gas, PCBs, etc.). For this reason, it must be kept separate from normal household waste.
