Nulife Glass has developed a unique solution for the removal of lead from the CRT glass in television screens and computer monitors. This is important because under the EU Landfill Directive and WEEE Directive CRTs cannot be disposed of in landfill, which makes it obligatory for you to recycle. Nulife Glass has developed the technology to make this possible in a safe and cost effective manner, but most importantly this can be done within the country where the waste is produced. By operating within your own borders none of your hazardous waste material is exported otherwise leaving you vulnerable to the circumstances of uncontrolled international dumping.
