Waste Vehicle Lighting

Built to meet the harsh and demanding conditions of refuse collection and recycling operations, Peterson Europe’s safety and work lighting systems are trusted by many of the UK and Europe’s leading waste-management fleets. These vehicles operate in some of the toughest environments: narrow residential streets, busy urban routes, industrial sites, and early-morning or late-evening schedules, where visibility, durability, and reliability are essential. Our lighting solutions are engineered to perform consistently under heavy vibration, exposure to dirt and moisture, and the constant stop-start motion typical of waste-handling operations.

Peterson Europe combines rugged construction with advanced LED technology to deliver lighting that enhances crew safety, improves vehicle visibility, and supports efficient workflow. By providing clear illumination and dependable signalling, our products help operators avoid hazards, maintain compliance with road safety standards, and ensure crews can work confidently in all conditions. Long service life and low maintenance requirements also help fleets reduce downtime and control operational costs - key priorities in an industry where reliability is critical.
