We're doing our part for the planet!
Glass has long been a material that can be recycled. But first and foremost it is a material which (if it is not broken) is good for LIFE! Before green trends and the advent of sustainability, glass has always been naturally eco-friendly and sustainable. These are some of its basic characteristics.
We are lucky to work with this every day and be in line with our values. Of course, we can always improve and go further, but we are very proud to offer lasting, solid and original creations!
However, we are not limited to working with glass only. Our glass can be recycled and can have a second life when a piece is missed. Thus, in a desire to contribute to sustainable development and minimize our environmental impact, instead of throwing away our failed pieces of glass, we recycle them to make new creations.
This allows us to reduce our waste by around 50%. Furthermore, all this recycled material offers us the chance to create new works and push our research into glass work. We can, thanks to this recovery, among other things, offer visitors and Madelinots alike glass panels to integrate into the architecture and original and unique decorative pieces.
Our raw materials come from far away and this is not negligible from an environmental point of view, so we are continually making more efforts to reduce our impact, in our own way.
