Upcycling-Service by Regent Lighting
Upcycling instead of throwing away
From now on we offer our exclusive upcycling service. The existing conventional light sources can be replaced on site by new Regent LED-Upgrade-Kits. If on-site replacement is not possible, the luminaires will be converted at our manufacturing facility in Basel.
We grant a 5-year warranty on the new LED-Upgrade-Kits CE certified by Regent. The product liability remains with Regent Lighting. In addition, we offer a comparative measurement (before-after) if required.
If you decide in favor of Upcycling by Regent Lighting, you and your company contribute to a sustainable raw material cycle. Existing luminaires are given a new lease of life with the LED-Upgrade-Kits, resulting in significant electricity savings. The old conventional light sources are professionally disposed of and recycled.
Upcycling for the future

Ecodesign requirements
Requirements and phase-out of T5 as well as T8 fluorescent lamps since August 25, 2023.
On September 1, 2021, the Ecodesign Regulation of the European Union became effective. Due to the "Energy Strategy 2050", this also applies in Switzerland at the same time.
The following year, widely used light sources were no longer allowed to be produced and placed on the market due to their energy consumption and mercury content: Since 25 February 2023, compact fluorescent lamps and circular fluorescent lamps T5 have been banned. Since 25 August 2023, linear fluorescent lamps T8 and T5 have also been banned.
Prevention is better than aftercare
So take precautions in good time and upgrade from fluorescent lamps to the more efficient, energy-saving LED technology. This will also help you avoid future maintenance problems. We will be happy to help you with this.
State funding
Upcycling pays off
By switching to LED lighting, you not only save noticeable energy and thus significant operating costs, you also make a valuable contribution to national efforts to curb electricity consumption and the associated greenhouse gas emissions. For this reason, various incentive programs exist to provide you with financial support for upcycling. We'll be happy to help you claim the incentives that apply to your project.
Up to 30% subsidy
There are a variety of grant programs that pay up to a maximum of 30% of the investment cost.
Additional subsidies with sensors
Projects with the use of occupancy or daylight sensors increase savings and receive additional funding.
Save 50% to 90% on electricity costs
Eligible lighting solutions with intelligent lighting control typically use 50% to 90% less energy than conventional lighting systems
We are committed to sustainability
In addition to our pursuit of economic efficiency, we focus on providing resource-saving lighting solutions in the spirit of upcycling.
We set ourselves the goal of providing our customers with professional support for planned upcycling. We create clarity in the jungle of subsidy programs.

Casestudy - Baloise Basel
There were 2,100 luminaires in use where the light sources were banned. The challenge was to upgrade these luminaires to LED and thus find a highly efficient, sustainable solution. Regent developed an upgrade kit specifically for this purpose, which can be replaced in just a few simple steps.
