FAQs
What makes recycled glass a sustainable choice?
Our recycled glass panels are made from 100% recycled glass and this is sustainable for several reasons. It significantly reduces waste by diverting glass from landfills. The manufacturing process for recycled glass also consumes considerably less energy compared to producing new glass from raw materials and it requires less energy to be fused together.
What colours does it come in?
The standard colours of our recycled blown glass depends on the waste colours that we collected over the years. We can do bespoke colours and bespoke effects and control the transparency of the glass to give it different tones and finishes.
Can recycled glass be used in bathrooms and wet areas?
