Envir-O-Light fluorescent lamps pass the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA) Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure
(TCLP) for non-hazardous waste. The EPA established the TCLP in
1990 as a way of measuring toxic substances that might dissolve
into the ecosystem. Because of their higher mercury content,
ordinary fluorescent lamps do not pass the TCLP and are classified
as hazardous waste.
Advanced dispensing system injects precise dose of mercury, 70%
less than industry average
Less mercury in the waste stream
More disposal options, lower costs
Special buffers reduce mercury loss for optimal performance
Same energy efficiency, lumen output and long life as standard
fluorescent
Special Envir-O-Light label for easy identification during lamp
replacement and disposal |
