Anatomy of a Glass Recycling Program

What is happening? Smirnoff (the vodka) is partnering with the Don’t Trash Glass campaign, Glass Packaging Institute, and GlassKing Recovery & Recycling to increase glass recycling in Chicago.

Why is this important? The partnership is making it more accessible for 300 bars, restaurants and local businesses to recycle glass.

How will this be important? Glass is 100% recyclable. The glass recycling process is “easy.” Yet, the EPA estimates only 40% of glass is recycled.
