Why Choose Glass Over Plastic?
1. Glass is better for the Earth
- Plastic production releases toxic chemicals into the air
- Plastic is a form of pollution that affects our environment
- Recycling glass is cost-efficient and can be reused. -> Recycled glass uses 40% less energy than manufacturing new glass, and up to 80% of all recycled glass can be recycled. Not all plastic can be recycled; only 6.8% of the total plastic in the world is recycled.
2. Glass is safer for the environment
- In plastic, toxic chemicals may transfer from the container to the food inside the container.
- Glass does not transfer any toxic chemicals from the container to the food inside.
3. Glass is durable
