Container-glass recycling
"Close cycles with us! For the highest level of environmental protection and sustainability!"
Recycling of our constant companion
Had you known: On average, every German citizen produces in excess of 20 kilograms of waste from disposable glass every year.
We are aware of our responsibility and focus on sustainability and environmental protection! After all, only responsible use of resources will give new generations a future. Container glass in particular is a recyclable material that can be reintroduced into the economic cycle without any limits. Old cullet can be turned into new glass. The primary raw materials used in glass production, such as sand, soda ash, and lime, are considered virtually unlimited. Mining, transport, and processing cause a high expenditure of energy and emissions of CO2, however. Use of 10% of our processed cullet saves 3% energy and 5% CO2 in glass production.

Container glass recycling – efficiency with the highest quality
We are one of the market leaders in the field of container glass recycling across Europe. We offer the glass manufacturing industry best cullet quality. This is, after all, the only way to ensure highest possible recyclability in the glass melt. Years ago, we developed one of today’s most advanced methods (X-ray fluorescence analysis) for separation of impurities in cooperation with US researchers. It has become indispensable in international cullet processing. We are constantly working to incorporate new findings and research results into our technical processing procedures. This enables us to achieve the best possible result in terms of purity, fines content and colour grading. Every year, more than 1 million tons of cullet can be returned to the material cycle by recycling container and flat glass by type.
Demand-driven collection options
We are there wherever you need us as a partner of dual systems, municipalities, industry, and commerce! In addition to container placement, we ensure regular collection or just-in-time pick-ups. Of course, we also guarantee complete documentation of the recycled glass quantities. Our staff will be happy to advise you, on individual glass detection options at your site as well.
Your demand – Our promise
We can produce clean recyclates free of impurities from the collected waste glass; it will be perfectly prepared for reuse in melting applications. In light of the individual specifications of glassworks and the glass processing industry, our products will be clean of CSP, FE, and non-ferrous metals as well as glass ceramics, lead-containing glasses, and organic substances after treatment.
Custom grain sizes to match your needs can be provided in addition to the guaranteed purity. We will happily take care of the entire logistics process for you in that area as well, to ensure on-time delivery and supply. We place the greatest importance on a cooperative business relationship. Therefore, not only our competent office and field staff but our entire quality management team will be available to you on site as a contact.

Proper collection makes the difference
Only proper sorting by type and colour generally guarantees efficient reprocessing results. The less contaminated the glass arrives at our plants – the more efficient will recycling be. This is how we close cycles! Download the infographic now!
