Fluorescent Lamp Boxes
Fluorescent tubes, compact fluorescent lamps and other energy efficient lighting such as linear fluorescent and high-intensity discharge lamps contain hazardous elements such as mercury and cadmium (both known carcinogens) as well as lead. For this reason concern is growing about the environmental impact of these forms of lighting. There is a clear need for them to be disposed of responsibly. It is estimated that a single fluorescent tube contains enough mercury to pollute 30,000 litres of water.EnviroServ’s lamp boxes provide a safe, convenient and efficient lamp-disposal solution that improves our customers’ facility housekeeping and reduces health and safety risks through the correct handling, transportation and disposing of lamps. Customers do not need a waste license as with on-site lamp crushing solutions.
A box is delivered to the customer’s premises to store spent lamps, and when it is full, it is collected from the premises and if required, another one is delivered.
