Reiling was previously represented with 10 glass recycling plants and 2 glass logistics centres in Germany, Poland, Denmark and Sweden. In Sweden, Reiling has been operating its own collection logistics for flat glass for over 20 years. To date, this has been carried out by the subsidiary in Nastved (DK) and its Swedish company Swede Glass United AB.
Some of the collected flat glass can now be recycled in Sweden and transportation to more distant branches in Denmark or Germany is reduced. This saves freight costs and CO2 emissions. In addition to the float glass industry, local container glass and glass wool manufacturers are also among the customers for the high-quality recycled cullet.
