Glass began as sand and can easily be pulverized into clean sand and aggregate. Highly durable and non-biodegradable, glass can persist in the environment for hundreds or even thousands of years. This makes it a perfect solution to replenish natural sand. Once glass waste has been collected, processed, and pulverized into sand, then it is ready to be used for coastal restoration.
