Environmental Responsibility

Our commitment to environmental sustainability extends well beyond the bulb. Environmental stewardship is a fundamental part of our business ethic. We increasingly use fewer natural resources, save energy in our manufacturing, reduce power plant emissions, and recycle lamps and other materials to ultimately avoid adding millions of pounds of waste each year to landfills.

At OSRAM SYLVANIA, protecting our environment and caring for our communities aren't just the right things to do, they're the only things to do.
