Stay on top of regulations

Two important regulations and what they mean

RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances)

Released in February 2022, the RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) directive restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, such as the use of mercury in lighting products. The directive included exemptions for a series of products that have now been revised by the Government – with great impact on fluorescent lighting products.

Main consequences of RoHS

For general lighting purposes:

A ban on T5 fluorescent lamps from 1st February, 2024
A ban on T8 fluorescent lamps from 1st September, 2023
A ban on CFLni lamps from 24th February, 2023

SLR (Single Lighting Regulation)

The SLR (Single Lighting Regulation, also known as Ecodesign Regulation; in place since October 2021) additionally phases out products that fail to meet efficiency requirements.

Main consequences of SLR

A series of products already phased out by October 1, 2021
Upcoming: ban of halogen caps from September 1, 2023
Upcoming: ban of T8 fluorescent lamps (600 mm, 1200 mm, 1500 mm)*

*Affected by SLR and RoHS, RoHS leading by ban date
