BritishLED
The future of lighting, today
In the UK commercial lighting now accounts for almost 50TWh of electricity, resulting in 5.1 million tonnes of carbon emissions every year.
Fluorescent lighting has for many years been promoted as both longer lasting and more energy efficient and has become the standard with annual sales of about 80 million tubes in the UK alone.
Unfortunately, fluorescent tubes pose an environmental problem in that they contain dangerous chemicals including Mercury and are categorized as hazardous waste under the European Waste Catalogue. In the US the Environmental Protection Agency recommends that on breaking a fluorescent light the room should be evacuated due to potential mercury vapour poisoning. Also despite the longer life users are still having to replace fluorescents on average every three years (depending on operational hours) and since July 2007 this has an added cost to business as under the WEEE directive you must pay for proper disposal.
With increasing energy costs and tightening legislation the future is challenging for UK business but the solution has been designed here in the UK, the worlds first LED tube that can be fitted without an electrician and directly replace fluorescent tubes. Lasting up to 5 times longer, safer for the environment and using 60% less electricity. The BritishLED tube is the fastest, most cost effective way to reduce electricity usage, operational costs and your carbon footprint.
