The Glass
The circular economy is a new way of thinking about the future, rethinking the entire process of a product, from manufacturing to disposal, including its useful life, from end to end, in order to reduce the impact on the environment.
Glass is arguably the most human-friendly packaging material. Glass is a 100% recyclable material.
It is infinitely recyclable because it is made from minerals such as sand, clay, limestone and feldspar. Glass packaging can be completely reused in the recycling production cycle, without any loss of material, shaping incredible new creations while remaining inert and impermeable.
By adding cullet to glass production, we reduce the amount of raw materials taken from nature.
The reuse of virgin cullet from the production process itself and the recycling of post-consumer glass (PCR) to produce new packaging significantly reduces the consumption of virgin raw materials and energy, reducing CO2 emissions and contributing to the preservation of the environment.
PCR – post-consumer glass
In order to minimize the consumption of water, energy, raw materials and inputs, thereby reducing CO2 emissions and minimizing the impact on natural resources, we have an ongoing production of flint glass packaging with a percentage of post-consumer glass (PCR).
For the production of amber glass packaging, we use more than 40% post-consumer recycled (PCR) glass cullet.
