Product Details

Thanks to a proven long-time silvering process, mirrors are very durable and have an extended useful life. Reusability and recyclability of mirror products is recommended after breakage or damage. Reusability, similar to upcycling, takes waste and creates something new from it in its current state, whereas recyclability involves the destruction of waste in order to create something new. This informational bulletin will address the environmentally-conscious aspects of the mirror manufacturing process, as well as the reusability and recyclability of old mirrors.

The Technical Services Division of the National Glass Association (NGA) has produced this Glass Technical Paper solely for informational purposes. This Paper was developed by dedicated member volunteers and subject matter experts. The original version of this document was approved and published in 2013. It was updated in April 2021.
