Neues Batteriegesetz :: Batterien gehören nicht in den Hausmüll

Related to the sales of batteries or accumulators we as a manufacturer are obliged to inform our customers about the regulation of taking-back and disposal of used batteries and accumulators.

A crossed out dustbin means that batteries must under no circumstances be disposed of with domestic waste!

Please do not dispose of old batteries and accumulators with your domestic waste but hand them in free-of-charge at a suitable collection point.

After usage you can either turn in old batteries or accumulators with us at the below mentioned address or you send them sufficiently stamped by post.
