The Recycling Process

Click on any picture below for a large version.

Bottles collected in bags

We collect the bottles ourselves from local establishments such as pubs, restaurants, guesthouses and transport them to our workshop in Nefyn. The bottles are then washed, cleaned and then sorted into different colours and sizes, ready for our recycling process.

Glass ready for the Kiln
To make our stained glass sheets (we use these in our lanterns and for our glass coasters (See our Gift Products page for colours available and further details including prices). The bottles are cut top and bottom and then vertically in half. These are then ready for the kiln.
Tiles in Kiln - flattened
The heat from the kiln will effectively flatten the curved shapes above into flat useable pieces of glass. The waste we then crush for gravel applications, everything is recycled!
