Fujitsu Siemens Computers maintains a flexible program for the take-back or exchange of equipment across Europe. More details of local programmes in the countries, are described in the Download document "Take-back and Recycling in the Countries". In markets without WEEE legislation, Fujitsu Siemens Computers is voluntarily planning to action environmentally sound procedures to take-back and recycle its own products. Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ parent company Fujitsu is responsible for sales in regions outside Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and the company is initiating its own take-back and recycling schemes. A new initiative in South Africa has started taking-back any electronic device.
Fujitsu Siemens Computers will take-back or accept trade-ins on any of its IT products, with no limit on the amount of equipment involved. The company maintains a flexible program whereby a customer can opt for a cash exchange based on the fair market value of the equipment, or can opt for a product exchange. Exchanges can be like-for-like, or products can be traded for something different. For example, older desktop PCs can be exchanged for new servers or storage systems. Furthermore, customers can trade in equipment against warranty upgrades, product training or other professional services. This flexible policy benefits Fujitsu Siemens Computers customers whose IT budgets are under pressure or have been exhausted.
Fujitsu Siemens Computers is a leading participant in take-back associations across Europe. It is an active member of the Elektro-Altgeräte Register in Germany and also one of the first to implement the WEEE Garantiesystem Altgeräte (GSA) in Germany, which mandates the “eradication of dumping of orphan waste”. In compliance with the GSA, Fujitsu Siemens Computers provides an insolvency-proof guarantee for financing the collection and disposal of electrical and electronic equipment used in private households. |

Process |
| Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ Asset Management Operations will take-back older equipment at an agreed fair market value and collect the equipment free of charge. Customers must only prepare their equipment for collection from a loading bay and ensure it can be transported safely. |
Terms and Conditions |
Equipment will be collected from a single, pre-agreed site and on a one-time basis. The collection from multiple events or locations, and any requirement to package and palletize the equipment could incur a charge. Fujitsu Siemens Computers will audit all equipment purchased through the trade-in scheme for compliance against specification and condition. Any shortfalls in quality and quantity will be noted and set against the purchase price. Take-backs can also be handled in conjunction with waste materials that require WEEE-compliant disposal. Any positive values from saleable equipment can offset the costs for disposal of waste products.
Full Terms and Conditions are available in English and German. To obtain a copy, contact: trade-in@fujitsu-siemens.com
