A Study Into The Interaction Of Imported Wine Bottles And The Uks Cullet Supply

WRAP identified that the trade in wine was a major contributor to the domestic waste stream and the colour imbalance. This study has quantified these contributions and analysed the implications of various actions that could be encouraged to improve the utilisation of waste glass; in particular those measures that would allow the glass to be recycled through the melting furnace, which is considered to be the best environmental option.
