| You can learn what is actually involved in glass-bottle recycling.
|
Theme
of the tour:
We have been developing, manufacturing and selling environmentally-sound
block products since our business started. We also launched a glass
recycling business in fiscal 2001.
Our glass recycling system enables us to recycle even low-quality
glass. The recycled products are lightweight foam-like aggregates
such as pumice which can be used both as a lightweight civil engineering
resource for the purification of rivers by filtering and as a soil
conditioner. |
