Separate the packaging into its individual components (as far as possible).

2

Old appliances and batteries

Before disposing: can it be repaired? bamix® appliances are built to be repaired. Our local partners offer service, repairs and original spare parts – often for models that are decades old.

Find a service partner

The crossed-out wheeled bin

Electrical appliances marked with this symbol must not be disposed of with household waste. Take them to a separate collection point for electrical and electronic equipment, or return them to a retailer that accepts old appliances, so they can be reused and recycled.

E-waste collection

Cordless: lithium-ion battery

Batteries and rechargeable batteries do not belong in household waste. Remove the battery from your bamix® cordless before disposing of the appliance, cover both poles with adhesive tape and take it to a battery collection point. Never dispose of damaged batteries loosely – ask your local collection point for advice.

Battery collection

France: Triman & Info-tri

In France, bamix® packaging carries the Triman logo and the Info-tri sorting instructions. Separate the components as shown above and follow the sorting rules of your municipality.
