Returns

Ecolab Engineering is committed to high product quality. But the service life of any device is limited, as some components are subject to natural wear and tear.

Therefore, through appropriate device design, we ensure that our devices can be repaired easily. In this way, we act both in an ecological and economical way, because the replacement of defective components enables the continued use of the device and avoids waste.

If a device repair is no longer profitable or reasonable and the device must be disposed of, we will of course fulfill our manufacturer's obligation and take over the disposal.

To protect our employees and our environment, please return only carefully cleaned devices!

Please note that it is not possible to return equipment from special departments of health care facilities (e.g., isolation wards in hospitals).

In the event of an epidemic, we generally cannot accept equipment from health care facilities.
