About us

Recolight Ltd offers WEEE compliance & recycling for all WEEE lighting.

We are the UK’s leading specialist WEEE compliance scheme for the lighting industry.

We were formed by the UK lighting industry in 2005 firstly for the function of managing a Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Compliance Scheme for lamp manufacturers in the UK.

Our operation model is based upon one defined by the European Lamp Companies Federation (ELC) - a European Trade Association for lamp producers - although the application is different depending on the country, reflecting the contrasting national employments of the WEEE Directive EC2002/94.
The WEEE Regulations need manufacturers of EEE and their compliance schemes to promote and put systems in place for the handling - including recycling - of separately collected WEEE.

We received scheme endorsement on 21 February 2007 and started operating live on 2 July 2007.

Through us, the lighting manufacturing industry alone has been gathering and recycling more WEEE products than any other commercial region.

Recolight Ltd

A first rate service from start to finish. We needed lots of info filled in for Health & Safety reasons, Felisha was especially helpful and patient with our situation, as was everyone we spoke to in customer services, but Felisha really went the extra mile. We got there in the end and hope to have 3 very happy years getting rid of waste lamps trouble free.
