Electrical and textiles

Electrical equipment (WEEE) and textiles have their own rules in many countries, next to those for packaging. EuroPlaybook needs to know which products they apply to.

  1. Open the product under Products.
  2. The block Other kinds of product shows Electrical too? and Textile too?, with the answer or “Not filled in yet”. Click Edit.
  3. Choose Yes or No per question. With Yes, add what you know:
    • Category (WEEE), electrical only: for example Small equipment or Small IT and telecom equipment. Not sure? Choose Don’t know.
    • Weight per unit (g), optional.
    • With a battery and Battery weight (g), electrical only.
  4. Click Save.

If the product is in a group, you see the group’s answer with “Group: …”. Change it and the product gets its own answer; the group stays as it is.

  • Under Reporting › Obligations you then also see the regimes for electrical equipment or textiles, per country.
  • EuroPlaybook does not calculate these rules yet, and the categories are not checked yet. You do get a warning and a task, so you know something needs doing.
