\ud83d\udeae Today marks International Zero Waste Day! Did you know circular packaging materials play a key role in cutting down on waste?<\/p>\n

Glass is a permanent material, meaning #<\/span>glass<\/a> packaging can be endlessly recycled without losing its properties in a closed-loop system – reducing reliance on virgin raw materials and preventing unnecessary waste.<\/p>\n

But waste reduction goes beyond packaging and the glass industry is acting at every stage by:
\n\ud83d\udd25 Recovering and redirecting waste heat from furnaces to boost efficiency
\n\u26a1 Generating renewable electricity with on-site photovoltaic panels
\n\ud83d\udd01 Using Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) to diversify and decarbonize energy supply<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, people across Europe have their own role to play! To onboard and further support consumers, the glass industry has set up #<\/span>FriendsofGlass<\/a> to share resources on why choosing glass packaging can help us all to lead a more intentional lifestyle.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
