Mercury Lamp Sales FAQs

What is the ban and how does it affect the sale of lamps?
EU Regulation 2023/2049, which takes effect on January 1, 2025, has significant implications for projector lamps, particularly those using Ultra High-Performance (UHP) technology.

1. Mercury Ban: The regulation prohibits the manufacture and importation of products containing mercury. This ban comes into force from 1st January 2025.
2. Projector Lamps Affected: Ultra High-Performance (UHP) lamps, commonly used in projectors, fall under this ban. These lamps have been popular due to their high brightness and affordability.
3. Impact on Projectors: Once the regulation is enacted, projectors using UHP lamps will no longer be offered for sale in the EU.
4. Alternative Light Sources: Many modern projectors have transitioned to laser or LED-based light sources. These alternatives offer advantages such as longer lifespan (20,000-plus hours) and consistent brightness.
5. Global Implications: Although the regulation is specific to the EU, there are global conventions advocating for an international ban on mercury-containing products.

Will Sony be selling lamp-based projectors after the ban comes into force?
Sony stopped selling lamp-based projectors in 2023 and was one of the first manufacturers to make this change.

What about customers who have a legacy lamp-based Sony projector, can they still buy replacement lamps?

After 1st January 2025, no manufacturer will be allowed to sell mercury lamp-based projectors. Sony has already made this change however, after this date, we will still sell replacement lamps for our legacy lamp projectors.

Hier was al een topic over : Lamp based projector ban in de EU per 1-1 2026

En de datum is niet 1-1-2025, maar 31-12-2025 :

In de reply van Frank had Sony de datum ook al fout met 1 jaar.

Maargoed voor Sony verandert er dus niks omdat ze nu al geen UHP lamp projectoren verkopen.
