Glass waste

Glass is a material that can be recycled many times. Whole bottles are cleaned and reused, while tinned glass and shards become new bottles and jars after remelting.

When you put glass in the recycling bin, it must be scraped clean and drip-free.

National criteria

To ensure that waste sorting is more or less the same throughout Denmark, the Danish Environmental Protection Agency has created the national criteria below.

 

PERMITTED

Principles:

  • Glass with or without labels, plastic sleeves, etc.
  • Glass regardless of colour                      

Examples:

  • Glass bottles (with no deposit)
  • Glass jars
  • Glass packaging
  • Drinking glasses
  • Vitamin jars
  • Glass shards from all the above

FORBIDDEN

Principles:

  • Items containing undesirable substances that will give problems recycling

Examples:

  • Porcelain
    (at the recycling centre)
     
  • Sheet glass
    (at the recycling centre)
     
  • Ceramic/stoneware
    (at the recycling centre)
     
  • Chemical bottles

Find the nearest recycling station

If you have more glass waste than you can fit in the bin, you can also drop off leftover waste at a recycling station.
