What is True Lamp Recycling?
Lamps containing mercury are generally made up from 84% glass content, 12% metal parts and around 4% phosphor powder (which contains the mercury). There are many companies who claim to recycle lamps but don't infact recycle the hazardous part of the lamp, the mercury.

The only successfully proven method for recovering mercury is to distil the phosphor powder for up to 16 hours in a substantial distillation plant requiring a six figure investment. There are only two companies in the UK who recycle lamps and own a distiller.

True lamp recycling means recovering everything and it certainly does not mean landfilling the mercury or using an outfit who claim to send the mercury for recovery but in practise don't follow this up.
