Closedown of classic WF-RepTool in May 2026

ATTENTION: A new version of the tool has been developed and will replace the present version from May 2026. For more information please consult https:/www.wf-reptool2.org

The expert group was founded to develop the classic version of WF-RepTool and consisted mainly of individuals representing the system users of the WF-RepTool. In addition we had representatives from the WEEE Forum and a consultant on board. The consultant founded the WF-RepTool with the idea of creatiing and maintenance of comparable (!) background data. Additionally she cared for system development, worked with project management, training and production of educational material.

In addition to this working group, we also included input from treatment partners and invited their representatives to reviews and participation in working groups. 

The group members were responsible for development of the tool, planning for future features and to maintain the support for WF-RepTool, mainly conveyed through this website.

We could contribute with knowledge of implementation, operation and maintenance as well as provide expert advice regarding treatment and classifications.

Our mission was to evolve WF-RepTool, spread knowledge and provide support regarding the use of WF-RepTool.

 The members of the expert group were representatives from WEEE Forum member systems and participated on voluntary basis with no finacial compensation.
