Fluorescent Tube Recycling
As at July 2002, the disposal of “End of Life” lamps
to landfill came within the scope of the Special Waste Regulations
and may now only go to designated hazardous waste landfill
sites. The number of sites meeting the new waste acceptance
criteria, currently some 250, will soon be reduced to only
10, as a result the price of disposal by landfill is likely
to increase substantially.
“The safe recycling of tubes and
lamps that contain mercury, sodium and other such hazardous
materials is therefore the only viable option”
As the most innovative company in the linear fluorescent
tube and lamp recycling industry, it is important for
Envirolite to continually strive to develop new effective
solutions to satisfy our customer’s recycling requirements.

process simple to operate at highly competitive prices, all
