Not every broken item is useless. On the contrary — damaged products can be recycled and given a second life as sustainable home décor. Below, you’ll learn how this process works and how it benefits our environment.
Why do we recycle glass?
Glass recycling is essential today because it requires far less energy than producing new glass from raw materials — making it much more environmentally friendly.
Recycling glass uses 75% less energy than creating glass from scratch. If we were to rely only on natural formation, new glass would take over a million years to develop. That’s why recycling is the most sustainable and efficient alternative to simply discarding used glass.
One of glass’s greatest strengths is its flexibility — it can be reshaped easily without compromising its quality.
How is glass recycled?
Before melting, several steps are required. The glass is first sorted by color and grouped accordingly.
It is then melted in the furnace and mixed with specific coloring powders that give each batch its desired hue. Using a blowpipe, the molten glass is carefully shaped and then cooled to form new products.
Decoration ideas with recycled glass
Recycled glass is used to create many beautiful, eco-friendly pieces that can add character and charm to any home. Try placing colored glass vases on your living room shelves — they bring an instant feeling of calm and serenity.
You can also use these exclusive glass pieces as candle holders, creating a warm, romantic atmosphere — whether for a candlelit dinner or in your bedroom for a soft, soothing glow.
