	materials that are easy to separate.
	All plastic components that weigh >100g shall be made from no
2.2	more than 2 types of plastic materials, regardless of their location in	X			P6.3		A.6.3.3
	the product.
2.3	The variety of materials forming components of comparable	X				B.1
	functions are limited to one material.
2.4	The proportional use of recyclate is permitted.		X			B.5
	All mechanical plastic parts, heavier than X 25 g / __50 g have
	material codes according to ISO 11469 (version 1996)) or All				P6.4,
2.5	mechanical plastic parts, heavier than X 25 g / __50 g have	X			6.5,	3.1.3	A.6.3.1	5.9
	material codes according to ISO 11469 (version 2000; addition of				6.15
	ISO 1043, parts 1-4 Plastics-Symbols and abbreviated terms)
2.6	The coating of plastic components is limited to a minimum	X				B.3
2.7	No internal or external metallization or molded-in or glued metal	X					A.6.3.4

2.16	All screwed connections between modules can be separated with	X				A.7
	no more than three tools
	Large-size plastic case parts are so designed as to ensure the
2.17	reutilization of the plastics on the basis of existing technologies for	X				3.1
	the production of high-quality and long-lived plastic products
2.18	Materials and material compounds can be recycled on an industrial	X				B.4
	scale (technologically and economically useful)							2
