No market for recycled glass bottles


Dangerous when broken: Irresponsible parties have dumped glass bottles at a neighbourhood playground in Seri Kembangan, Selangor.

PETALING JAYA: Due to low demand for recycled glass, recycling operators have stopped collecting glass-based material from the public.

A recycling centre in SS17 Subang Jaya said it no longer accepts glass bottles and jars as there are no manufacturing companies in the Klang Valley that process them.
