What is RoHS and EcoDesign? A few years ago, EU legislation was drafted to bring entertainment lighting under the same guidelines as domestic and workplace lighting. However, a cross-industry movement successfully campaigned for exceptions for stage and studio lighting. Read more about EcoDesign. Entertainment lighting was further impacted by RoHs (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) which was concerned with the small amounts of mercury found in lamps.
