Detailed Information

How We Recycle Lighting Equipment

Improper disposal of fluorescent tubes and CFL bulbs is a major environmental hazard due to the highly toxic mercury vapor trapped inside them. Even a small break can contaminate groundwater.

We utilize specialized negative-pressure crushing machines that safely capture 100% of the mercury vapor and phosphor dust. The remaining glass and aluminum are then cleanly separated for conventional recycling.

  • 100% safe containment of toxic mercury vapor.
  • Specialized collection bins provided to corporate partners.
  • Recovery of clean glass and aluminum for secondary industries.

Our Certified Process

Lighting Equipment Recovery Process

A purpose-built workflow that maximizes yield while protecting people and the planet.

Step 01

Safe Bin Collection

Specialized crush-proof bins are installed at partner facilities for the safe accumulation of spent lighting.

Step 02

Sealed Transport

Tubes travel in sealed, cushioned containers that remain intact in transit, preventing breakage and vapor release.

Step 03

Vacuum Separation

Under negative pressure, the lumen chamber separates glass, metal caps, and phosphor powder line by line.

Step 04

Mercury Distillation

Phosphor powder is thermally treated to distill and fully capture elemental mercury as a safe, saleable by-product.

Step 05

Glass & Metal Recovery

Clean soda-lime glass and aluminium caps are crushed and sold to secondary manufacturing industries.
