Design for
disassembly/re-
cycling
This product has been designed for ease of disassembly so that materials
can be easily separated for recycling at the end of the product's useful life.
One type of fastener is generally used to minimize tools required to
disassemble. Plastic components have been marked with standard
identification symbols to facilitate separation for recycling. Snap fit fastening
techniques have been used, where possible, to reduce disassembly effort.
Fastening of dissimilar materials can be disconnected, allowing materials to
be separated for recycling.
Environmental
packaging features
The outer container on this product is made from unbleached, natural Kraft
corrugated fiberboard which can be readily recycled in most areas.
Protective cushioning pieces are made from expandable polypropylene
which is more efficient than other foams and requires less material to
provide equivalent protection, thereby reducing packaging waste. The
cushioning pieces are marked with the Society of the Plastics Industry (SPI)
material identification symbol for polypropylene to facilitate recycling.
