What type of glass can be recycled?

All glass can be recycled; any shape, colour or size. In the past, commercial glass recycling was a little tougher as waste companies wanted you to separate your glass into different colours. Some still do. At Forge Waste & Recycling, we collect all your mixed glass in one bin, making it a completely hassle-free process.

How is glass recycled?

Glass waste is removed from your premises, then sorted by colour and washed so that any impurities are removed. After this, it is crushed into tiny pieces and melted down before being made into new bottles, jars and other glass items. None of the original glass goes to waste.

The benefits of recycling glass waste

There are many benefits for both your business and the environment by choosing to recycle your glass with Forge Waste & Recycling. These benefits include:

  • Avoiding expensive Landfill Tax by diverting your glass waste elsewhere
  • Reducing your business carbon footprint
  • Moving your business towards being 'Zero Waste to Landfill'
  • Less new glass will need to be produced if we all pull together to recycle old glass
