Lamp Recycling in New York State – More than Just Law!
_________________________________________

It’s been over 5 years since New York State mandated that every lamp containing mercury must be recycled, whether or not it passes the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) test. Commercial establishments have no choice but to participate in the lamp recycling program; but there is a greater responsibility beyond just meeting law and regulation. 
Research has proven that mercury released into the environment is not only a threat to the environment but to human health as well. The increasing threat of mercury toxicity is real and needs to be curbed. Individuals and organizations can take on e-waste recycling to cover: light bulb recycling, fluorescent lamp recycling, cfl recycling, battery recycling, ballast recycling, e-waste recycling, electrical equipment recycling, universal waste recycling, etc. For safe lamp disposal, suitable containers, packaging and boxes such as RecyclePaks are offered to customers by Warren Electric Supply. 

Call the knowledgeable sales professionals at Warren Electric Supply, 518-793-0274 to make sure you are in compliance of New York’s lamp recycling law.  

Benefits of Lamp Recycling for Commercial and Industrial Establishments

  • Lowers liability: manage your risk by participating in a scientifically managed lamp recycling and universal waste disposal program. With stricter disposal standards imposed on mercury-containing lamps, businesses and consumers should adhere to appropriate disposal standards
  • Assures your stakeholders that you are environmentally aware: businesses that “go green” and participate in e-waste recycling are looked upon favorably not only by other companies, but also consumers. Being an environmentally conscious business shows the community that you care about your neighbors and the environment in which you operate
  • Contributes towards a healthy ecosystem: reducing the amount of mercury in landfills has a direct impact on health and well being. Think of the difference lamp recycling can make! 
  • Protects employees: businesses that have crushed lamps on site are possibly exposing workers, occupants and visitors to dangerous mercury levels
