Environment & Disposal

At ACCUPOWER, we protect the environment and human health through measures such as:

• Collective transport for the delivery of purchased parts to minimise transport routes,
• Environmentally friendly product design, i.e. reusable electronic boards / protective electronics, the use of RoHS-compliant materials to avoid environmentally hazardous substances,
• optimisation of the measuring equipment used in terms of energy consumption,
• ACCUPOWER operating instructions with safety and disposal information for safe product use,
• detailed product descriptions on the ACCUPOWER website, including hazardous goods documentation,
• Environmentally friendly ACCUPOWER packaging (cardboard outer packaging for chargers, easily degradable inner packaging instead of conventional plastic packaging)
• life cycle extension, e.g. through the use of intelligent chargers with electronic monitoring and optimised charging technology, and, where possible, repair instead of disposal for reuse by the customer,
• option to return old chargers and batteries purchased from ACCUPOWER (as described above).

In order to prevent potential environmental damage and ensure optimal resource recovery, ACCUPOWER is increasingly focusing on the separate collection of batteries and waste electrical and electronic equipment.

As a customer, you therefore have the option of returning old batteries and chargers purchased from ACCUPOWER free of charge. Batteries and chargers purchased elsewhere can also be disposed of – up to the value of a new purchase from ACCUPOWER (see Section 13 EAG-VO).

Please note that the symbol of a crossed-out wheelie bin on electrical and electronic equipment means that it must not be disposed of with household waste. For safety reasons, separate collection is mandatory.
