Environmental Disposal Solutions
1655 Inkster Blvd , Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

The story of EDS began several years ago when our founder thought to himself, “there must be a better way”. After observing disposal methods for fluorescent lamps at that time, which often involved breaking bulbs and disposing them in the trash, our founder began to dream up ways to make this process safer and more environmentally friendly.After several years of research, testing and iteration, we have finally developed a process that is capable of processing spent and unwanted lamps and light bulbs in the most efficient and environmentally-friendly way possible.Our team of mechanical and air movement technicians, mechanical engineers and industrial hygienists worked tirelessly to develop a system that exceeds regulatory and environmental standards. We are excited to finally be able to offer a complete solution for the recycling of spent and unwanted light bulbs and lamps to the market.
