Glass Waste – Junk can be recycled fully

Glass Waste is a large component of household and industrial trash but when recycled, it can be turned back into bottles and glassware. According to one recycling source, recycled glass retains its strength, quality, and purity – infinitely. The properties of recycled Glass Waste make it suitable for such secondary markets as:

  • Aggregate in concrete
  • Recycled glass countertops
  • Insulation products
  • Ceramic sanitary ware production
  • Water filtration media
  • Astroturf, golf bunker sand, root zone materials,
  • Reflectivity products such as traffic paint, highway signs and pavement marking tape

Of particular safety interest, the reflective properties of Glass Waste help make highway markings more visible during the night.
