The future belongs to the light-weights. The glass industry is taking this on board too. A trial in the lab with a carbonated beverage in glass: the fall in slow motion. The alternative: a two-component bottle made of glass and plastic. The inside part is made in the glass foundry, a special bottle with very thin walls, much too fragile for everyday use. The protective plastic jacket consists mainly of polyurethane. The advantages of the glass bottle and the plastic bottle complement each other, even if the worst comes to the worst. Milk cartons. A carton like this is much too good to just throw away. Because nowadays there are many further uses to which this laminated cardboard made of wood fibres can be put. This company handles a mixture of soft drinks cartons and other waste paper. The cardboard is cut up and the water soaks into the scrapes, which then swell and disintegrates. The recycled raw material consists of high-grade cellulose fibres of invariably high quality. They can be made into kitchen paper or in this case toilet paper.
