Glass Composition
Glass Composition
At this stage, all raw materials are stored, measured and mixed to create the mass composition to be vetrified, which will be brought to furnaces where fusion will take place. The basic composition of glass package is:

Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) 70 > 72%
Sodium Oxide (Na20) 12 > 14%
Calcium Oxide (CaO) 9 > 11%
Magnesium Oxide (MgO) 0 > 3%
Aluminium Oxide (Al203) 1 > 2%
Potassium Oxide (K20) 0 > 1%

This composition incorporates treated used glass, ground glass wastes from internal and/or external recycling.
