Glass Forever is a circular economy approach to sustainability, and by collaborating with its customers and partners, Saint-Gobain Glass actively diverts waste glass, known as cullet, from landfill and re-manufactures it into high-performance flat glass at a specialised facility in Eggborough.

The Glass Forever programme aims to increase the volume of cullet used in Saint-Gobain Glass’ production and help the company achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
