Transportation Safety and Engineered Glass Materials

Potters® recycles over one billion pounds of glass per year into glass microspheres. Our extended family of highway glass beads are used throughout the world in the delineation of roadways, guardrails and airport runways and taxiways. Metal finishing glass microspheres are used to clean, surface treat and strengthen a variety of metals. Solid and hollow glass microspheres serve as functional additives in industrial applications. Metal-coated particles provide electromagnetic interference shielding in electronic parts.
