Substance Regulations
WEEE puts registration, marking, and reporting duties on producers of electrical and electronic equipment. Z2 works the material-data side of that job: the full material declarations and certificates for the components inside your products, collected, verified, and kept on file.
WEEE requires producers to register, mark equipment with the crossed-out wheelie-bin symbol, and meet collection, recovery, and recycling targets by category. Determining scope, category, and marking is yours; Compliance Manager holds the material data and documentation those duties rest on, so here is what you get.
How Z2 helps
Most of your BOM carries material data from the Z2 database on day one.
What each component is made of, read from its declaration.
Material coverage at every level of the product hierarchy.
FMDs, CoCs, and supplier documentation behind every material record.
Z2-led campaigns collect the material declarations you are missing.
Notified when a material declaration changes or a gap opens.

Verified evidence
Material data comes from Z2's declaration and certificate database, backed by downloadable documentation.
Live monitoring
Get notified when a declaration changes or a component arrives without the material data you need.
One platform
The material data behind WEEE sits in the same platform as every other framework Compliance Manager runs on your BOM.
In practice
The material data behind WEEE is the same record serving every other regulation you report against.
Material composition from the Z2 database covers most of the BOM before any outreach begins.
Declarations and certificates sit behind every material record, ready when a regulator or customer asks.
Material coverage rolls up from each component to the finished product, so you know what is still missing.
One product carries its RoHS, REACH, and EU Battery status on a single record, over the same material data.
Alerts flag a changed or missing declaration before it reaches a reporting deadline.
Part of
automated material compliance across 270+ regulations, so RoHS, REACH, PFAS, conflict minerals, and more stay audit-ready.
Common Questions
Compliance Manager works the material-data side of WEEE. Which category a product falls into, whether it needs the wheelie-bin mark, and where you register are determined by what your finished equipment is and how much of it you place on each market — those stay with your compliance and legal teams. What Z2 supplies is the layer underneath: the full material declarations and certificates for every component inside that equipment, read down to the substance level, so the material record your recyclability and reporting work rests on is complete and traceable.
It comes from Z2's database of full material declarations and certificates of compliance, the largest of its kind, which covers most of a typical BOM on day one. Every material record traces to downloadable manufacturer documentation, so you can show the basis for any figure you report. Where Z2 has a gap, its compliance team runs supplier outreach to collect the declaration.
Recyclability assessment and end-of-life reporting depend on knowing what a product is actually made of. Compliance Manager pulls full material declarations for your components from Z2's database and identifies the substances present, and Z2-led supplier outreach collects the declarations that are missing, so the material composition behind your WEEE work stays on file and traceable rather than estimated.
The material data behind WEEE is the same data Compliance Manager uses for more than 270 other regulations on a single BOM. The components in your equipment are assessed for RoHS, REACH, the EU Battery Regulation, and your other frameworks at the same time, and item rollup carries material coverage from each component up to the finished product, so you collect a declaration once and use it everywhere.
