Recycled Glass Countertops

It's amazing what the industry has developed over the years as a means to reuse products in everyday life.  For something to turn out as amazing as recycled glass counter tops, it simply shocks me.  On top of the looks, the reuse factor is great--83% of the counter top content is the actual recycled glass and the remaining 17% is cement.   Do your research and find local producers to further limit the effects of pollution and cost by avoiding transportation.

Comparing to granite slab, the cost of the recycled glass countertop is $25-50 per square foot and granite is about $60.
