Recycled Content Performance

Who takes what?

The ability of a region to take recycled glass of various colours is dependent on the furnace. Quebec furnaces are geared to produce only flint, whereas Ontario and Western Canada have furnaces that can take each colour.

What does recycled content mean?

Recycled Content (%) = Post-consumer, Post-use Recycled Glass (Tons) / Production (Packed Tons).
