Glass is the main ingredient in today's  'green' buildings, that harness the heat of the sun to warm the building, with minimum electricity for heating and air conditioning. Unlike many other construction materials, it can be re-used an infinite number of times while conserving its properties. 

Glass recycling is an ecological process in every aspect. It reduces waste to be treated or dumped, thereby reducing environmental damage, savings on waste transportation and disposal costs.

Glass is an non-toxic and inert material. It is easy to clean and maintain, having a dense surface, glass inhibits contamination. Glass is vastly recyclable and glass scrap  is the most essential ingredient added to the raw materials. Standard glass productions generally recycle over 65% of their output.
