Supply of WEEE, Packaging & Batteries onto the UK market


If you manufacture, import, sell or distribute WEEE, batteries or packaging onto the UK market, you will have producer compliance obligations.

Our sister company Wastecare Compliance is here to help you understand if you should be registered as a producer, or if you have a takeback obligation as a business.

Our compliance division is in a unique position amongst other producer compliance schemes. As a part of Wastecare Group, we can collect, recycle, and generate 85% of the evidence needed to meet our WEEE and Battery compliance members’ obligation.

This means we have control over our costs enabling us to keep our evidence costs down, and guarantee our future fees which we proudly publish online.
