Grassroots glass recycling
We recycle glass “waste” into sand and gravel for disaster relief and prevention, coastal restoration, eco-construction, new glass products, and so much more!
Grassroots recycling: by the community, for the community.
We started with an idea, a backyard, and a commitment to seeing the ‘glass half full.’ A few years later, we’ve diverted millions of pounds of glass from landfills and converted it into sand for disaster relief sandbags, coastal restoration, eco-construction, art, new glass products, and so much more!
Converting glass “waste” into sand and gravel.
We collect and convert glass bottles — which have been going to waste in our landfills for decades — into sustainable and functional resources: glass sand and gravel. These precious materials have a vast array of applications, from coastal restoration and flood mitigation to eco-construction and sandblasting. The opportunities for use are endless!
10,000 pounds of sand go to restore the Louisiana coast!
