In 2023, Germany led European countries in gas discharge lamp waste collection from households, contributing 22.25% to the total. The United Kingdom followed with 18.93%, and France with 15.43%. While the majority of countries saw positive growth in waste collection from 2022 to 2023, notable increases were observed in Cyprus and Croatia, whereas the Netherlands saw a substantial decrease by nearly 40%. Over the past five years, trends indicate varied growth rates with some nations experiencing modest declines, like Italy and Latvia.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts towards more sustainable lighting solutions, which may decrease the waste from gas discharge lamps. Additionally, policies promoting recycling and waste management awareness in Europe may influence these figures. Emerging technologies and regulations could lead to significant changes in waste management practices across the region.
