Ohio Seeks More Recyled Glass

The Herald Dispatch features an article today about Owens Corning's need for more recycled glass. The article titled, Ohio Seeks More Recycled Glass, tells how Owens needs more recycled glass in their fiberglass insulation manufacturing process. They state, as we learned this summer, that using recycled glass brings down their production costs. They also state that it has become part of their business model and the recycled glass helps with their energy-certificates.
They plan to target bars and taverns to get their patrons to recycles their glass (beer) bottles. Currently, over 90% of those bottles go into the trash.
