Are there any mechanisms for assisting obligated companies?
Presently there are two compliance schemes approved by the Minister for the Environment. WEEE Ireland, based in Sandyford Dublin 18 can be contacted by telephone (01) 2999320, by email info@weeeireland.ie or via their website www.weeireland.ie
The second scheme is called European Recycling Platform (ERP) and is made up of 4 major brand owners namely HP, Electrolux, Sony and Braun. They can be contacted by telephoning 00.32.2.777.0538 or by emailing info@erp-recycling.org. Their website address is www.erp-recycling.org
Once a Producer joins an approved compliance scheme, there are some exemptions from the Regulations permitted as the compliance scheme will effectively take these on, on your behalf.
