Does disposal in the EU introduce obligations that are not settled by the product's market classification?

Does disposal in the EU introduce obligations that are not settled by the product's market classification?

The company publishes no position on disposal obligations in the European Union.

The company's European position is set out in one statement under one regulation, and it goes no further.

The Statement of Regulatory Status for the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter, dated 11 September 2026, records how the company applies Article 3 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 to the filter, and states that it addresses that question only. It states at 3.4 that the filter is supplied as a finished article, that it is not a substance and it is not a mixture, and that the Regulation takes the meaning of “substance”, “mixture” and “article” from Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. It states at 3.5 that the filter has not been treated with a biocidal product and does not incorporate one, and at 3.7 that the company classifies it as neither a biocidal product nor a treated article.

The company sets out no assessment under any other European regime; it sets out its position under United States law and under Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, and under no other country's law. A duty that falls on an importer, a distributor or a downstream user of a finished product sits with that party.
