Transmode is committed to meeting the requirements of the European Union´s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive. This Directive requires producers of electrical and electronic equipment to finance the take-back for re-use or recycling, of their products placed on the EU market after 13 August 2005.

Transmode's products are classified as "Category 3: IT and telecommunications equipment", as defined in Annex 1A of the WEEE Directive and as "Other products or equipment of transmitting sound, images or other information by telecommunications" in Annex 1B.

Transmode's products are labeled with a crossed-out wheelie-bin symbol as required by the Directive. This indicates that the product was placed on the market after 13 August 2005 and that end-users should segregate the product from other wastes at end-of-life.
