13 Recycled Glass I n 1999 a Wausau Tile product development team met with scientists at Columbia University. It was the first step in what has become a major breakthrough in our industry; the ability to combine concrete with recycled glass. Until that time, mixing the two was as difficult as blending oil and water. After the research, came the discovery that all of Wausau Tile s concrete-based products could indeed contain recycled glass. Today, Wausau Tile is the leading manufacturer of dependable concretebased products containing recycled glass. The colors afforded by this unique process, combined with recycling tons of glass, make these products special.
