Description
We first saw the Green Glass ideas in Africa when we were working on environmental projects in Namibia, Botswana and Swaziland. Having bought lots of glasses and admired the simplicity it seemed a fantastic idea that we could develop when we returned to living in the UK.
We wanted our kids to grow up in a great place and we wanted to earn a living doing somethiing that felt good. Green Glass in the UK started in 2000 in our garden shed within sight of the sea in Cornwall.
The company has been developed in partnership with the South African originators of the idea Sean and Philip who put all the hard work into working out the technical problems of such an ingenious idea. To say that Philip is eccentric is an understatement - he NEVER wears shoes - and that‘s not easy in a glass factory !
