Environment and recycling

For reasons of hygiene, it is not possible to recycle used filter
cartridges.
Used filter cartridges can be disposed of hazard-free as
residual waste.
You can purchase a refill set for the attached CO
our online shop at www.shop.grohe.com.
The cooler/carbonator is an electrical device, to which return
and take-back obligations apply in many countries. GROHE
participates in such take-back systems in all relevant
countries.
