Our commitment

At ELCA, we work every day to improve by choosing more sustainable processes and products. Every stage of design presents a challenge: using high-quality components with a low environmental impact. We design our packaging in-house, minimizing waste wherever possible and using recyclable materials.

WEEE DIRECTIVE

ELCA supports the objectives of the European directive governing Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (the WEEE Directive). ELCA radio remote controls carry a symbol informing customers that their electromechanical and electronic parts and batteries must be handled by approved specialist treatment facilities for safe disposal or recycling.
