Here is a brief summary of Woodward's position on the EU Directive 2002/96/EC on
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
In as far as Woodward supplies products that can be considered electrical and
electronic equipment falling within any one or more of the categories of
products set out in Annex 1A to WEEE, we are of the opinion that these products
are nonetheless excluded from the scope of application of WEEE. These products
constitute a part of another type of equipment that does not fall within the scope
of application of WEEE (for this exemption, see Article 2.1 of the WEEE Directive).
Such exempted Woodward products include, for example, equipment that is incorporated into
(i) means of transportation (such as aircraft, ships, vehicles or helicopters),
(ii) equipment using a primary energy source other than electricity (such as Diesel engines),
(iii) fixed installations (such as wind turbines and other fixed industrial power generation systems),
or (iv) any other finished product that is not mentioned in Annex 1A of WEEE.
Any customer questions regarding this issue should be addressed to the customer's
Woodward account manager or representative.
If you have any additional questions regarding this issue, I welcome hearing from you.
