Product recycling programs

Lenovo has joined the Valpak consortium for the collection and recycling or product packaging waste. Owners and last users of product packaging should contact their local municipality or visit the Valpak Web site to identify collection points or obtain additional recycling information.

Users of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with the WEEE marking per Annex IV of the WEEE Directive must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to them for the return, recycle, recovery of WEEE and minimize any potential effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to the presence of hazardous substances.

Lenovo has joined the Valpak WEEE Compliance collective for handling WEEE from consumers. Consumers should contact their local municipality to identify collection points or go to the Valpak website at www.valpak.co.uk for additional information.

For electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) put on the market after August 13, 2005 and EEE put on the market before August 13, 2005 that is part of a 1:1 replacement sale, Lenovo, businesses should complete and submit the form at the following EARN website http://www.earn-service.com/lenovo/form_e.html to make arrangements for collection and treatment.

For WEEE put on the market before August 13, 2006 that is not part of a 1:1 replacement sale, businesses should consider the following Asset Recovery Solutions offering.

Small and medium-sized business customers as well as large enterprises should contact their local Lenovo Sales representative or Branch Office or send an inquiry to environment@lenovo.com to receive a competitive quote for the remarketing, recycling, and/or environmentally sound disposal of Lenovo or non-Lenovo IT products.
