Car Windshield Recycling Services

Windshield Glass Recycling Services in British Columbia

At Reclaim Plastics, in partnership with Mother Earth Recycling, we are proud to offer car windshield glass recycling services in British Columbia. With the support of the Automotive Retailers Association (ARA), we are working to reduce the environmental impact caused by discarded windshields, turning them into valuable recycled materials.

Why Recycle Windshield Glass?

Every year, over 4 million pounds of windshields-roughly 140,000 individual windshields-end up in BC’s landfills. These discarded car windshields, made from laminated car glass, are challenging to recycle through traditional methods due to the presence of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) layers. By participating in windshield and PVB recycling, we are reducing waste, conserving resources, and contributing to sustainable practices.

The Process of Recycling Windshield Glass

Our specialized car windshield recycling program ensures that every component, from the glass to the PVB interlayer, is responsibly processed and repurposed. This includes:

• Separating the laminated car glass into its core components.
• Extracting the PVB material, which can be used in other industrial applications.
• Providing solutions for auto glass recycling, keeping valuable materials out of the landfill.

Benefits of Recycled Windshield Glass

Choosing to recycle your windshield has significant environmental benefits:

• Recycled windshield glass reduces the demand for raw materials in the glass manufacturing industry.
• Windshield and auto glass recycling helps conserve energy and natural resources.
• It minimizes landfill waste and promotes a circular economy.
