    When glass is crushed and screened to pass the 3/8-in. (9.5-mm) screen, it closelyresembles crushed natural aggregate and has engineering properties similar tonatural aggregate materials.*

    G3 works closely with Waste Management to provide a eco-friendly product that can

    replace aggregates from 3/8 inch to its natural form of sand. We have been supplyingrecycled glass for government and commercial contractors to individual homeowners looking to cut their costs up to 50%.

    G3 has been an innovator in using recycled glass since the early 90s.

    Previous uses of recycled glass and Glass Facts

    In 2007, for the third time, Burlington County Landll built a new cell using recycled

    glass pulverized into sand.

    In 2000, during the creation of the Jersey Gardens Mall, recycled glass was usedas an aggregate for ll.

    The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PENNDOT) has used recycled glass in the followingprojects:

    In the summer of 2000 cullet was used as an aggregate in base course asphalt

    along the shoulder in Manheim, Lancaster County.

    In the fall of 2000 PENNDOT installed 2,000 tons of glass cullet between a

    New Jersey barrier and sound wall along I-95 in Delaware County.

    Recycled glass has been used for beaches along Lake Hood in New Zealand and

    on the Dutch Caribbean island of Curacao. Currently, Florida and New Jerseyhave been in discussions of using recycled glass to counteract beach erosion.

    Studies have shown recycled glass to be a viable engineering material withcharacteristics of a lightweight granular aggregate. Combining recyclable

    materials into your project will create a win-win situation for your bottom line andthe environment!
