The WEEE Directive (2012/19/EU) governs the disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) to protect human health and the environment. AEye complies by registering as a WEEE Producer where obligated and marking its products with the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol, indicating that devices should not be disposed of with regular household waste but must be collected separately for recycling.

Electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) contains materials, components and substances that may be hazardous and present a risk to human health and the environment when waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is not handled correctly.
EEE is marked with the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol indicating that electrical and electronic equipment should not be disposed of in the regular household waste stream, but needs to be collected separately.
Users need to follow local recycling regulations to reduce adverse environmental impact in connection with disposal of WEEE and to increase opportunities for reuse, recycling, and recovery of WEEE. To facilitate this, free collection points are available in your area. Users are responsible for removing personal data from electronic devices prior to disposal.
Where obligated, AEye is registered as a WEEE Producer. When your AEye products reach end of life, contact us at [email protected] to arrange for the environmentally sound disposal of the product. Countries with local collection points have been listed below for convenient disposal.
