Do You Know What Happens To The Stuff You Recycle?

Well i bought my kiddies a ruler for christmas that was made out of recycled tyres..... I'm thinking that glass is melted down and made into new glass products, and paper is made into recycled paper for toilet roll and notebooks etc etc hmmm not sure about plastic and cans...

Glass-can be recycled and resold to commercial companies for reuse as water bulbs, picture glass, most anything that does not require great strengthor safety because of the chemical breakdown. Colored glass is aften resold for landscaping after tumbling, counter tops, and tile.
Paper-(not shiny paper insert types) is recycled as toilet paper, stationary, cardboard box's, house construction (insulation, counters, wall board), packing material.
Plastic-Some limited use, because of chemical breakdown.Package covering, package filler, drink bottles, household marerials.
Metal-Iron, Aluminun, Steel can all be recyled as future metal products but at a less dense product.
Yard Waste-Recycled as mulch, potting soil, land fill.
Rubber-Shredded and clean for playgrounds, some toys. Building material, roads

I think they use them again
