Container glass refers to a type of packaging material primarily made from soda-lime glass. It is widely used for creating containers like bottles, jars, and other vessels designed to hold liquid, food items, pharmaceutical products, and consumer goods. The production of container glass involves a process of melting raw materials, such as silica sand, soda ash, and limestone, at high temperatures to form molten glass, which is then shaped into containers through various forming processes. It stands out for its recycling capabilities, as it can be recycled indefinitely without degradation in quality or purity. Container glass is generally categorized into three colors, which include clear (or flint), amber (or brown), and green. Each color serves a specific purpose, with clear glass providing visibility of the content. The extensive usage, the diverse application range, and the ecological benefits make container glass a critical element in the packaging industry across Japan.
