Waste disposal guide

PRODUCT DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING
To discard and/or recycle the products at the end of their life cycle, start by separating the wheel+castor assemblies from the equipment on which they are mounted. Dismantle the wheel + castor assemblies into the following components:
- castor
- axle set (screw, tube, nut)
- wheel
It is particularly important to detach the wheels from the castor if the parts in question are prevalently composed of plastic material or aluminium alloy.

Information on the disposal and recycling of the main materials of which Tellure Rôta wheels and castors are made is provided below. The information given should anyway be considered in conjunction with the procedures and regulations issued by the authority responsible for waste disposal in the region or place of use of the products. Please contact our Sales Department for more information.

CASTORS AND AXLE SETS
- Steel and stainless steel can be recycled as ferrous scrap.

WHEELS
We recommend consigning the products to product recycling processes that include preliminary treatments to sort the various construction materials of the wheels, in order to ensure correct disposal and/or recycling of each material type.
- Steel and engineering cast iron can be recycled as ferrous scrap
- Aluminium alloy can be recycled as non-ferrous metal
- Plastic, thermoplastic rubber and vulcanised rubber parts can be recycled once they have been separated from ferrous and non-ferrous metals
- Thermosetting resin can be sent to landfill
- Polyurethane can be sent to landfill once it has been separated from ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

PACKAGINGS
Plastic films that cover packagings are recyclable as low density polyethylene (n ° 4 PE-LD) as well as internal bags, plastic sheets and document bags. Adhesive tape and straps are recyclable as polypropylene (n ° 5 PP). Wooden pallets can be reused or recycled (n ° 50 FOR). Packaging in paper (n ° 21 PAP) or corrugated cardboard (n ° 20 PAP) follow the paper supply chain. As for the methods of recycling and recovery, please refer to the supply chain consortia in the countries where the components are discarded.
