About lightcycle.de

Lightcycle operates a national take-back system in Germany for lamps and luminaires, including LED and fluorescent lamps. Used lamps are collected through municipal recycling yards, contracted collection points and direct pickup from large consumers, and then sent to recycling facilities. Take-back for luminaires is also offered.

Its customers are lighting manufacturers, importers and retailers that need to meet ElektroG obligations. Services include registration with stiftung ear, insolvency-protected guarantee provision through Elektro-Altgeräte Garantie GmbH, and optional administrative service with monthly and annual quantity reporting. The website states that over 200 lighting manufacturers use the system and that it works with over 1000 retailers. The company describes itself as non-profit.

Lightcycle was founded in 2005 as a take-back system for LED and gas discharge lamps by leading lighting manufacturers. The website states that over 500 million old lamps and luminaires have been taken back in Germany over the past 20 years, and that more than 4500 collection points are available in addition to municipal recycling yards. The company is based in Munich.

Product: Take-back and recycling of used lamps and luminaires, plus ElektroG registration, guarantee provision and reporting services.
