"The company accepts drop-off donations of glass, which is then ground down into varying levels of fineness. Some is transformed into cullet or gravel. These rougher materials are used in restoration projects, eco-construction, and to create new glass. Other glass is turned into sand—the material that glass has been made from for millennia. The fine sand has a special use. It is critical to rebuilding Louisiana's swiftly eroding coastline."
