How cost efficient is recycling fully tempered glass?

I am working in a project where I want to use fully tempered glass because it is safe. But the project is ecofriendly. I have found out that the fully tempered glass cannot be readily recycled but I want to know much will it cost? I dont want the company to waste a lot of money behind it. Any answers are welcome. Thank You.How cost efficient is recycling fully tempered glass?%26quot;Can be%26quot; recycled and %26quot;is%26quot; recycled are two different things. All glass can be recycled, under the right conditions. However, almost no %26quot;post consumer%26quot; plate glass is recycled in the U.S. except for things like construction aggregate. Some plate glass manufacturers accept some %26quot;post industrial%26quot; recycled glass from industrial users, but usually only if they manufactured it originally, because they don't want to mix formulas with other manufacturers' glass. Tempering makes no difference on whether it can be re-melted into new glass. But lamination does. Laminated glass is a one-way trip to the garbage dump.How cost efficient is recycling fully tempered glass?Most window glass, tempered or not, isn't usually desired to be recycled like bottles.How cost efficient is recycling fully tempered glass?I have like 15+ years working with windows and glass. Whoever is telling you that tempered glass can not be recycled is out right lying to you. Laminated glass is another option. That is what the windshield of all vehicles have. In between is a plastic material to keep the glass from shattering all over the place. Tempered glass is what is used on your car's door windows. Also local building departments use a 24inch heighth for tempered glass. Anything 24%26quot; or less from the floor has to be tempered. It varies state to state.
