The waste today:
Glass recycling waste is glass bottles, jars and other glass containers. It’s important that glass waste is kept separate from other recyclables to prevent contamination and to ensure it can be effectively recycled.
The resource tomorrow:
Glass is collected and taken to a glass recycling facility where it is cleaned, crushed, and melted down to be remanufactured into new glass products. Glass can be recycled indefinitely without loss of quality, making it a highly sustainable material.
