Product Recyclability
Go Green’s patent pending End Cap allows the product to be returned to the manufacturer at end of life and re-used. The internal LED board and power driver are removed and replaced with a new board and driver.
This first ever “Cradle to Cradle” linear light tube will never hit the landfill!
The aluminum and poly-carbonate housing will be re-used along with the end caps. Go Green is looking into working with McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry to develop recycling protocols for the electronic and LED components.
In regards to product disposal, Go Green encourages customers to return burned out tubes to us at end of life.
