Renewi Specialities subsidiary Maltha is a joint venture between the waste-to-product company and glass manufacturer Owens-Illinois, and is one of the largest glass recycling businesses in Europe. At eight sites located in the Benelux, France, Portugal and Hungary, Maltha sorts and recycles more than one million tonnes of different types of hollow glass (including jars and bottles) and flat glass (such as mirrors and windows), turning it into shards and powder to be reused in the glass, glass wool and building industry. Each year we process more than 1 million tonnes of glass waste from companies, citizens and municipalities into high-quality new raw materials for use in making new products. To collect the glass, we work together closely with collection companies and recycling schemes throughout Europe. The collected glass is purified at Maltha, using advanced methods and reprocessed into various types of glass cullet that fully correspond to the specifications of our customers in the glass and glass wool industry. Thus, for example, beer bottles can already be composed of 80% recycled glass. Glass is endlessly recyclable without loss of quality. Glass is a typical example of the circular economy. The use of recycled raw materials is good for the environment and cost efficient. In this way, Maltha makes glass endless.
