| A study of its environmental benefits, quality, and mechanical properties
| Flat glass manufacturers are rightly focused on reducing their operational carbon and in turn the embodied carbon of the glass materials that they create.
| First valid steps on the pathway to better re-utilization of glass elements
| This study explored the prospect of reusing post-consumer architectural flat glass panes for remanufacturing in insulating glass units.
| This study identifies the existing supply-chain inefficiencies in the UK glass industry in three stages.
| Laminated glass recycling is becoming increasingly important and urgent due to limited raw materials.
| The paper deals with the recycling of laminated glass, especially with the effective separation of glass (in the form of cullet) from the polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer film.
| End-of-life insulating glass units (IGUs) continue to follow a linear, wasteful path from renovation and demolition sites into landfills or low-value recycling.
| An Interlayer Material Study Towards Circular, Dry-Assembly, Interlocking Cast Glass Block Structures
| This paper explores the flexural strength of recycled cast glass—a property relevant to the engineering practice.
| This study forms part of a wider research programme that aims to better address the end-of-life challenges and opportunities in façade design for re-use.
| Sustainability and the circular economy are increasingly influencing work and production processes in glass manufacturing, too.
| The use of renewable energies will play a role at “glasstec 2020” as well as at its special show “glass technology live” held in Düsseldorf from 20 to 23 October 2020.
| Re-thinking the life-cycle of architectural glass brings together recent research into the economic, technical, environmental and logistical viability of closed-loop construction glass recycling.
| Current product trends and innovations in production will be presented by manufacturers at glasstec 2018.
