Glass is an important packaging material for the food and beverage industry that comes in many forms, such as bottles or jars. Although glass is a packaging material which dates back thousands of years, it is regularly reinvented and always innovative. There are no limits to the versatility of glass packaging because it can be produced in all kinds of shapes and with a whole host of original and colourful patterns. Packaging products in glass also makes an important contribution to environmental protection because glass is 100 percent recyclable. New glass packaging products are manufactured from used glass packaging products on a cradle to cradle basis, which means considerable savings on raw materials and energy.
