      These materials do not melt at the same temperature as glass and can therefore compromise the quality of recycled glass, generate flaws in new glass packaging and cause serious damage to our glass furnaces.<\/p>

      Only glass packaging (bottles, pots, jars, flasks, etc.) can be recycled indefinitely.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Thanks to an extensive network of drop-off points, we are able to accept glass at our packaging center in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, making your commitment to circularity easier. In some cases, we can also transport the material. The processed glass is then remelted or transformed into insulating wool, which requires the same level of purity as remelting.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
