Recycling of products
When recycling, the product’s chassis is separated from other parts. At separation, the parts can be sorted according to material after unscrewing and dismantling rivets and other connections. The diffe-rent parts should be separated into metal, plastic or combined materials.
The products consist mainly of steel pipe and other metal components.
Examples of parts which consist of combined materials, are the plastic front forks (built up in several layers), wheels and other components, which consist of a composite of materials.

Note!
Different authorities/recycling companies handle recycled materials in different ways. It is thus fitting when in any doubt over the best way to proceed when recycling, to contact the relevant governing body.

Environment friendliness
Human Care products are manufactured so as to have as little effect on the environment as possible during their lifecycles. This allows for the expired product to be dismantled and for its parts to be recycled. Products with lengthy lifecycles safeguard our sensitive environment and are thus more environmentally friendly.
Human Care HC AB is a part of FTI. FTI – A countywide system for recycling of packaging.
