In 2023, Germany dominated European gas discharge lamp waste collection, with a substantial lead, contributing 29.86 metric tons. France and the UK followed at 11.67 and 11.59 metric tons, respectively. Most countries showed positive growth, with notable changes in Spain (4.13%) and Cyprus (5.08%). However, Latvia experienced a significant decline (-20.51%). The top five countries combined accounted for a significant portion of total collection, highlighting disparities between larger and smaller economies in waste management efficiency.
Looking ahead, increasing environmental regulations are expected to drive more efficient waste collection and recycling processes across Europe. Countries showing rapid year-on-year growth, such as Greece and Cyprus, are positioned to enhance their market share. Additionally, technological advancements in lighting could influence the volume of waste collected, while smaller nations might invest in innovative waste management solutions to align with European sustainability goals.
