Glass recycling is a simple but powerful way to cut down on waste and conserve resources. Unlike many materials, glass can be recycled endlessly without losing quality or purity, making it one of the most sustainable packaging options. Recycling glass reduces the need for raw materials like sand, soda ash, and limestone while saving energy compared to producing new glass. It also helps lower landfill use and greenhouse gas emissions. Look for the purple bin at our facilities! SCISWA Glass Recycling Flyer
