Clear Glass Bottles and Jars WRAP Recycling Signs identify collection points intended specifically for clear container glass. Use them at bins or recycling stations to help people choose the correct stream before disposing of bottles and jars.
Clear Glass Bottles and Jars WRAP Recycling Signs identify collection points for clear container glass. They help staff, visitors and customers recognise where clear bottles and jars should go, using a green Recycle Now symbol, clear wording and a simple bottle-and-jar pictogram.
Where to Install
Position the sign directly on, immediately above or beside the container used for clear glass bottles and jars, facing the direction people normally approach from. Where several recycling containers stand together, keep the sign closely aligned with the correct opening so users can identify the clear-glass stream before they dispose of an item.
Viewing Distance
Choose the size according to how far away people are likely to be when they first need to identify the correct container. These are practical positioning ranges rather than certified viewing-distance specifications; lighting, sightlines and the amount of competing information around the recycling point will also affect readability.
| Sign size | Practical approach distance | Useful positioning |
|---|---|---|
| H 210 x W 148 mm | Around 1–2 metres (3–7 feet) | On or immediately above individual containers |
| H 297 x W 210 mm | Around 2–4 metres (7–13 feet) | General recycling points and short approaches |
| H 420 x W 297 mm | Around 4–6 metres (13–20 feet) | Larger recycling stations or wider approach areas |
Expected Safety Outcomes After Installation
Correctly positioned signage gives people a clearer decision at the recycling point, particularly where several waste streams are collected side by side.
✅ Clearer recognition of the container intended for clear glass bottles and jars
✅ Less uncertainty when choosing between neighbouring recycling streams
✅ More consistent disposal behaviour from staff, visitors and other users

Installation Guidance
Avoid confusing the glass stream
❌ Do not position the sign where it could appear to refer to a neighbouring mixed, coloured or general-waste container.
❌ Do not mount it behind an open lid, door or other object that hides the message during normal use.
❌ Avoid placing several recycling signs together without a clear visual connection to their individual containers.

Know what the sign cannot decide
❌ Do not use this sign where your collection arrangement does not actually separate clear glass bottles and jars.
❌ Do not assume the wording makes every clear glass item acceptable for that recycling stream.
❌ Do not rely on signage alone to correct an unclear recycling station where container openings or waste streams remain difficult to distinguish.

Make the correct container obvious
✅ Position the sign directly on or close to the corresponding container and face it towards the main approach.
✅ Place it where users can read the message before reaching the disposal opening rather than after they have already chosen a bin.
✅ Keep the sign unobstructed and review its position if containers are moved or the recycling area is rearranged.

Frequently asked questions
What are Clear Glass Bottles and Jars WRAP Recycling Signs used for? They identify the collection point intended for clear glass bottles and jars, helping people select the correct recycling container before disposal.Should I choose Vinyl or Rigid Plastic? Choose Vinyl where you want the supplied self-adhesive backing and have a suitable application surface. Choose Rigid Plastic where you require a separate rigid sign; fixing materials for this option are sold separately.
Which size should I choose? The H 210 x W 148 mm option suits close-range identification, H 297 x W 210 mm provides a larger everyday format, and H 420 x W 297 mm is the better choice where the recycling point needs to be recognised earlier on the approach.
Does this sign mean every type of glass belongs in the container? No. The message specifically identifies clear glass bottles and jars. Check your waste collection arrangements before placing other types of glass in the same stream.
Can these recycling signs be displayed outdoors? Yes, outdoor display is a confirmed option. Select the material and fixing arrangement appropriate to the intended mounting position and keep the sign clearly visible.

Related signs for colour-specific glass recycling
If different glass colours are accepted together, use mixed bottle and jar recycling signs at the mixed collection container. This gives users the correct alternative when clear glass is not the only material accepted.
For a wider glass stream, add general glass recycling waste signs where the collection is not limited to bottles and jars. The broader wording suits sites that need a less specific glass message.
Where general waste is positioned nearby, add household refuse collection signs so non-glass items have an obvious destination. This helps keep the clear-glass collection focused on the intended material.
To compare further glass and household waste messages, explore household recycling signs for glass collection points before completing the area. This makes it easier to select the most accurate sign for each container.
