WEEE Compliance is about more than ticking a box

Join the Recolight WEEE Compliance SchemeRecolight Members recognise that WEEE compliance is about more than just ticking a box. They are actively committed to protecting the environment. Simplicity for our Producer Members and for their customers is one of the reasons why Recolight’s membership continues to grow.

Why Recolight is different

We recycle

Most UK WEEE schemes with a lighting obligation meet their targets by buying evidence notes from recyclers, or other schemes. Evidence notes confirm a quantity of waste has been recycled.

Recolight  meet targets entirely by organising the collection and recycling of waste lighting. We offer a free collection and recycling service – an invaluable solution for our Members, their customers, and end users. We use the waste we collect to meet our targets. We know exactly where the waste we collect has come from, and how and where it gets recycled.

Offering free recycling increases recycling rates

Free recycling service

Research has shown that electrical contractors believe recycling rates would decline if they were required to pay for recycling when lamps reach end of life.
That clearly means it is essential to offer a recycling service for the end user that is free at the point of use.

Charging made simple

charging made simpleRecolight’s straightforward approach to charging contrasts to the complexities of traditional WEEE schemes. Our approach is to apply a flat fee based on actual in-year sales.

You have no hidden costs and no need to consider the consequences of market share changes and the compliance fee; making budgeting simple.
