Environmental statement

Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing op-
erations and of its products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental
Management System (EMS) which is certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further in-
formation on the EMS, our Environmental Policy and other relevant information is available on re-
quest, or can be found at www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save
energy and (through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and
scrap throughout their long working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental ef-
fects far outweigh the negative impacts of product manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they can very easily be
dismantled into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can
be separated without the use of tools, while other parts are secured with conventional screws. Vir-
tually all parts of the product are suitable for recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden
crates, while smaller products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high re-
cycled fibre content. If not re-used, these containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the pro-
tective film and bags for wrapping product, can be recycled in the same way. Control Techniques'
packaging strategy favours easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and regular re-
views identify opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation
and best practice.
