In Europe, all Cfi lamps have to be disposed as special waste (under EWC Code 20 01 21-fluorescent tubes and other MERCURY-containing waste). Furthermore, as part of its obligations under the EU’s WEEE Directive , the EUROPEAN lighting industry has set up a European-wide recycling INFRASTRUCTURE, capable of recycling mercury, as well as other metals, glass, etc. All Cfi lamps are provided with the crossed-out wheeled dustbin logo. This MEANS that they should not be disposed of in household waste but should be BROUGHT back to the shop or to the local waste facilities to be recycled.
