Retailer Paint Mixing Equipment Returns and Collection

Crown Paints Ireland is committed to meeting the requirements of the European Union (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations 2014. These Regulations require producers of electrical and electronic equipment to finance the takeback of WEEE resulting from products that we place on the Irish market. This helps us to ensure that WEEE is reused or recycled safely. In line with that commitment Crown Paints Ireland will take back all WEEE resulting from our provision of equipment to facilitate in store colour mixing and colour matching services at our retail partners premises. Please contact us for details at info@crownpaints.ie.

Our paint mixing retailers have a role to play in ensuring that WEEE is reused and recycled safely. Users may choose not to return WEEE but should not dispose of it in your bin. The crossed out wheeled-bin symbol on the product reminds users not to dispose WEEE in the bin.  WEEE should be collected separately and sent for proper treatment. WEEE contains hazardous substances and if not managed and treated safely it can cause pollution and damage human health.
