Bottles of beer, wine, and soft drinks made of glass

Glass bottles that have been thrown away are broken to generate glass beads for sandblasting or thin strings for fiberglass insulation. They’re also used to make street paint that’s more reflective.

Cans made of aluminum

Aluminum cans are melted down and replaced with new, consumable beverage aluminum containers or cans. 95-99 percent of the cans gathered are recyclable.

Clear Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Containers

PET flakes or pellets are made from transparent polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics. Pellets and flakes are used to make new food-grade polymers, as well as modern clothes and carpets.

Tetra Brik

A hydro pulping method is used to separate the paper, plastic, and aluminum in Tetra pack containers. As a result, 80% of the pulp is used to make paper products, while the remaining 20% of plastics and aluminum is recycled further.

Gable Top

The hydro-pulping process separates the paper and plastic in these goods. Paper pulp is used to make tissues, cardboard, and writing paper.

Bi-Metal

By smelting bi-metal cans, they can be repurposed into automobile parts and mine grinding rods. Labels, paint, and pollutants account for only 5% of the total weight.

Pouches

Incinerated drink pouches are employed as a source of heat energy. Bag-in-a-box containers are recycled into cardboard and other difficult paper products due to their roughness.

Estimate the Environmental Impact of Your Containers

The Alberta Bottle Depot Association’s (ABDA) impact calculator is an excellent tool. You may learn about the environmental impact of your recycled containers. Calculate how much greenhouse gas you’ve saved and how many landfills you’ve avoided. Get a reimbursement by bringing your recyclable containers to Country Hills Bottle Depot.
