renew:glass
Recycling 1 tonne of end of life glass saves approximately 700 kg of CO2 emissions, yet less than 1% of the world's float glass waste is recycled*.
Collectively we can support the transition to a circular glass economy and reduce the amount of glass ending up in landfill.
Under our renew:glass initiative, along with our partners, our goal is to increase the amount of float glass being responsibly recycled and give it new life.
