Are used beer bottles recycled or reused ?

Used beer bottles are a significant part of the glass waste that gets accumulated everywhere.

As a part of solid waste management, these used bottles are either reused or recycled.

Because the process of recycling glass is more complex and expensive than compared to that of reusing glass, most of the times, used glass is reused.

On an average, a glass bottle can be reused around 15 to 20 times throughout its life cycle.
