"The U.N. Minamata Convention on Mercury", with more than 90 countries signed, has come into effect in August 2017. By the treaty, countries are forbidden to produce and import & export products containing "Mercury" since 2020. As the power-saving bulb contains mercury, and the price only has little difference between the bulb and LED lamp, the Epistar predicts that the LED lighting will widely replace from next year, and the demand of LED lamps can make up the new increased capacity.
EPISTAR spokesman Zhang Shixian said that the "Minamata Convention" came into effect, there will be more and more countries joining and will increase to 146 countries. The estimated LED lighting to 2020 will grow twice.
LED inside said, after the "Minamata Convention"-international disabled mercury (Hg) signed in 2013, there is only three years left for the complete mercury ban in 2020 time. Including Japan, Chinese, EU and other markets, in the domestic, industrial and other ultraviolet lamp fields, the UV LED is in need to replace these UV lamps. It accelerated develop the UV LED market around the world. Epistar, GuangFu and IUVOT which actively develop UV LED are expected to benefit.
