Recolight tender for WEEE lamp treatment is open

Recolight have opened an Invitation to Tender. This is to suppliers to enter into agreements with Recolight Ltd for the supply of treatment services in respect of gas discharge and LED lamps in full compliance with the requirements of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2013 (SI  No. 3113) and other relevant legislation.

The Recolight tender model supports our multiple-supplier sourcing policy, with equal and fair consideration for all qualified suppliers. The tender is designed to allow respondents to make offers for the tonnes available for treatment that are produced by the Recolight collection network.

The Recolight tender process

Each respondent is free to make an offer in line with the rules of the tender process.  Unless otherwise advised, financial offers must be made via email in response to the ITT document.

Awards under the tender are made on the basis of both price, and on price criteria (performance, carbon emission reduction, etc.). It is expected that contracts for treatment will be awarded for periods of 1, 2, or 3 years, depending on the offers made.  Detailed conditions of contracts e.g. termination, arbitration etc. are outlined in the draft contract sent out to shortlisted respondents. All offers are subject to final agreement and signing of contracts.

Suitably accredited contractors can request the Invitation to Tender by email from [email protected]
