1.9 Recycling and environmental protection
Honeywell has designed the transport packaging of the measuring
instrument to be environmentally friendly. Packaging materials are always
selected consistently with a view to recycling. The cardboard items used
constitute secondary raw materials for the paperboard and paper industry.
The Instapak® foam packaging is recyclable and can be reused.
Plastic sheeting and strips/bands are also made of recyclable plastic. At
Honeywell, subsequent recycling and disposal are already elements of the
product development process. When selecting the materials, we allow for
reusability of the materials, suitability of materials and subassemblies for
dismantling and separation, and the risks of environmental pollution and
health risks when recycling and dumping on landfill sites. The measuring
instruments mainly consist of metallic materials which can be melted down
again in steelworks and metallurgical plants and which can thus be reused a
virtually unlimited number of times. The plastics used are listed in Annex B
to ensure that the materials can be sorted and separated for the purposes of
subsequent recycling.
Like all mineral oils (e.g. for motor vehicles), the oil supplied with the device
must be disposed of in an environmentally sound way.
