KŠB Successfully Assists REMA System in Obtaining Authorization to Operate Collection System for Electrical Equipment

KŠB’s team led by Tomáš Sequens and Petra Mirovská was successful in assisting our long-standing client REMA Systém, a.s. with obtaining authorization from the Ministry of the Environment to operate a collection system for ensuring the obligations of manufacturers of electrical equipment under the new End-of-Life Products Act for all groups of electrical equipment, including solar panels, for which it previously did not have authorization.

The new End-of-Life Products Act imposes a number of corporate, financial, contractual, organizational, technical and other requirements on operators of collection systems. We assisted the client in making its collection system compliant with all the requirements, which was essential for obtaining the authorization to continue operating the system. Our assistance also included legal advice throughout the challenging licensing process.

For more information, please see REMA System's press release or its annual report here (both only in Czech).
