Global Recycling Australia

Fluorescent Lamp/Light Bulb Recycling Service

Global Recycling Australia offers a fluorescent lamp / light bulb recycling service. Global Recycling Australia does not dispose of (dump into landfill ) your waste lamps, but use highly developed technology to recycle your lamps, including the mercury containing phosphor powder.

It is a known fact that there is sufficient mercury and mercury vapour in a typical fluorescent tube (also known as strip lights and light tubes) to contaminate 30,000 litres of water, making it unsafe to drink. The safe recycling of tubes and lamps that contain mercury, sodium and other such hazardous materials is therefore the only safe and viable option for the future.

Australia is likely to follow Europe and the US by introducing legislation that will make the recycling of mercury containing lamps compulsory due to their potential to contaminate Australia’s precious water supply. Using our service will ensure that your waste lamps are handled in compliance with present and upcoming legislation, and that your business is ready for the changeover to compulsory recycling.
