"UpCycling" is a term far greener than recycling. UpCycling expressly requires an endless reuse of the item. ECOsmarte's Glass Pack clearly fits the bill. On top of using mixed colored glass-- glue, bacteria and plastic combined-- the glass media now has the NSF 61 Drinking Water and Chemical standard. No other media is sold with the certification for swimming pools, spa, or ponds.
I estimate we have now saved approximately 30 Million gallons of freshwater on the 5000 swimming pools that have used this product since 2005 in lieu of environmentally unfriendly silica sand or diatomaceous earth. We now have one public pool in NY that saved 100,000 gallons in their first 90 day season. This water will be saved THIS year and EVERY year to come.
