Glass Packaging Institute Bryan Vickers Glass Packaging Institute Food & Beverage Packaging Value Chain Meeting Washington, DC December 12, 2013 Glass is ENDLESSLY Recyclable

The Glass Packaging Institute (GPI) represents the North American glass container industry:  6 member glass container producers (with multiple plant operations)  40 associate member supplier companies Through GPI, glass container manufacturers advocate job preservation and industry standards; provide education; and promote sound energy, environmental, and recycling policies. Glass Packaging Institute

Glass Packaging Industry  48 glass container plants in 22 states comprise a $5.5 billion dollar industry  102 glass container furnaces produce approximately 30 billion glass food, beverage, cosmetic, spirits, wine, and beer containers annually  The industry employs approximately 18,000 employees nationwide

2012 U.S. Glass Container Shipments by Category Source: Glass Packaging Institute (GPI)

 Glass is 100% recyclable; it has an unlimited life and can be recycled endlessly  Over a ton of natural resources saved for every ton of glass recycled  Energy costs drop about 2-3% for every 10% recycled glass used in the manufacturing process  Six tons of recycled container glass used equals one ton of carbon dioxide reduced Why Recycle Glass?

 Lessens greenhouse gas emissions: for every 6 tons of recycled glass used, one ton of carbon dioxide reduced  Minimizes consumption of raw materials, lowering costs and extending furnace life  Reduces landfill dependence and helping communities avoid disposal costs Why Recycle Glass?

Closed-Loop Glass Recycling: Critical Issues  Collection systems  Cullet quality and markets  Competition for other uses  Costs

Closed-Loop Glass Recycling High-quality recycled glass = New glass bottles and jars =

Primary Markets for Quality Cullet Glass bottles and jars Fiberglass

Secondary Markets for Cullet  Countertops and floors  Landscaping  Tile

Secondary Markets for Cullet  Fluxes/Additives  Abrasives/sand blasting  Brick manufacturing  Roadbed Aggregate - Diversion  Landfill Cover - Diversion  Bead  Frictionators  Filtration

Sources for Recycled Glass Containers  Curbside (usually single-stream)  Drop-off  Beverage container deposits (currently 10 states)  Commercial (bars, restaurants, hotels, etc.)  Unused inventory  In-house cullet

 Partnerships with stakeholders to improve glass recycling/recovery rates  Improved data collection/analysis – understanding  Effective legislative initiatives at federal and state levels  Currently examining how single stream and bottles bill can work together, both in terms of materials recovered and financially.  Expanded bar, restaurant, and hotel collection programs GPI is working to improve the quantity and quality of recovered recycled glass: Achieving Increased Glass Recycling

Recycling Collection Systems  Curbside single-stream recycling collection ₋60% of glass could be recycled into new glass containers or fiberglass; another 19% goes to secondary uses; and 21% to landfills*  Mixed glass collected in dual-stream systems ₋yields an average of 90% of glass being recycled into glass containers and fiberglass  Container deposit systems ₋color-sorted materials results in 98% glass being recycled Source: Container Recycling Institute, 2009 Study; *Container Recycling Institute, 2012 survey

Closed-Loop Glass Recycling: Current Cullet Usage Criteria  Container Glass Only: no ceramic coffee cups, drinking glasses, Pyrex, ovenware, mirrors, etc.  Contaminant Free: No ferrous materials, ceramics, etc.  Color Sorted: Clear, Amber, and Green  Meets plant specifications as to particle size (usually 3/8 inch)

Closed-Loop Glass Recycling: Cullet Quality and Markets MRF Processing and Quality  Glass handling  Sorting equipment  Negative sort Markets for Closed-Loop Glass Recycling  Additional costs to sort at cullet processor  Poor quality leads to diversion alternatives

Cullet Processor Locations and Sorting Technology  Growth in cullet processor locations:  5 new facilities in 2012  Expansion in sorting technologies:  Cullet processors with optical sorting technologies becoming the new standard  In 2012, cullet processor SMI had three-mix color sorting technology in nearly half of its 40+ facilities

83 Cullet Processor Locations in 35 States  California 11  Pennsylvania 9  Ohio 4  New Jersey 4  New York 4  North Carolina 4  Florida 3  Georgia 3  Indiana 3  Minnesota 3  Texas 3  Connecticut 3  AZ, CO, KY, MI, MO, WA 2  AL, IA, IL, KS, 1 MA, MD, ME, MS, NE, NV, OK OR, SC, TN, UT, VA, WI

Improving Recycled Glass Markets and Revenue  To improve markets—and revenue—for recovered glass:  Step up quality control to weed out contamination  Retain glass size during collection and processing  Set up recycling contract incentives with a shared revenue component  Use new, high-tech equipment, such as optical sorting
