IS ALL GLASS RECYCLABLE?

In short, no. Despite its endless qualities, not all glass varieties can be collected in your household recycling. 

There are diverse types of glass, with many different treatments applied to them. Your local municipality’s rules for what you can and can’t put into household recycling might seem fussy on first glance – but while bottles might look all the same, they can have significant differences and create problems if unsuitable glass is mixed with packaging for re-melt. And the difficulty is that, like us, most equipment that sorts these materials at recycling centres can struggle to tell the difference.
