Trinity Glass Products - www.trinityglassproducts.com/
Trinity Glass produces tabletops and countertops along with wall and floor tiles out of a Terrazo-like material made from recycled glass and low-carbon cement. Trinity uses 75% pre- and/or post-consumer recycled glass mixed with a calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement. According to the company, CSA cement production creates less carbon dioxide than traditional portland cements and has a lower pH, which should help control the alkali-silica reaction (ASR) that can be a problem with traditional concrete and glass aggregate mixes. Trinity Glass products are available in ten colors in 1-1/2" thick slabs and 1/2" thick tiles of various dimensions. These products can be worked using traditional diamond stone fabrication tools and, like other stone or cement-based materials, must be sealed occasionally to resist staining.
