Québec’s regulated light recycling program, RecycFluo, was launched in 2012 under the province’s regulation regarding the recovery and reclamation of products by enterprises. Operated by Product Care Recycling, the program collects mercury-containing lamps through a province-wide network of municipal depots, retailers, and commercial service providers. The lighting collection network also includes a large-volume pick-up option for commercial generators/businesses.
In 2024, Product Care launched a second stewardship program in Québec for non-refillable pressurized fuel containers (NRFCs), following amendments to the provincial regulation adopted in June 2022.
Both lights and NRFC programs support safe recovery and recycling of products through select municipal and retail collection sites, where residents can drop off burnt-out light bulbs and tubes, and non-refillable pressurized fuel containers.
