Glass recycling saves energy!  Recycled glass can be processed at a lower temperature than blending new glass made from raw materials and thereby saving America's precious fuels. Recycled glass is generally located closer to bottle manufacturing plants than are the sources of potash, which is the most expensive component in making glass bottles and jars.

Challenges Facing the Glass Recycling Industry:

National Recycling Coalition (NRC):  NRC, the Glass Packaging Institute, and Recycle America Alliance, have launched a national project to increase glass recycling in the United States.
