Clearly identify containers intended for mixed glass bottles and jars with a green WRAP RecycleNow recycling sign. Choose from three portrait sizes in rigid plastic or self-adhesive vinyl to suit the display point.
Mixed Glass Bottles and Jars WRAP Recycling Signs identify recycling points intended for glass bottles and jars. Position one on or beside the correct container so staff, visitors or customers can recognise the intended waste stream before they dispose of an item.
Where to Install
Install the sign directly on the mixed-glass container where the selected material and fixing method are suitable, or immediately beside or above it. The message should be visible before someone reaches the bin rather than being hidden by lids, bags or adjacent containers. Where several recycling streams are grouped together, align each sign clearly with its corresponding container.
Viewing Distance
Choose the size according to how far away people are likely to be when they need to identify the correct container. The ranges below are practical positioning guidance rather than certified visibility specifications; lighting, mounting angle, surrounding clutter and sightlines will also affect readability.
| Sign size | Best suited to | Practical viewing range |
|---|---|---|
| H 210 x W 148 mm | Individual bins and close-use recycling points | Approx. 2–4 metres / 6–13 feet |
| H 297 x W 210 mm | Shared recycling stations and normal approach routes | Approx. 3–6 metres / 10–20 feet |
| H 420 x W 297 mm | Larger recycling areas where identification is needed earlier | Approx. 5–8 metres / 16–26 feet |
Expected Safety Outcomes After Installation

✅ Users can identify the mixed-glass disposal point before reaching the container.

Installation Guidance
Avoid confusing the waste stream
❌ Do not position the sign between several containers where it is unclear which one it identifies.
❌ Do not place it behind a raised lid, stacked waste or other objects that regularly obstruct the message.
❌ Do not choose a small format for a location where people need to identify the container from substantially farther away.
Do not rely on the sign for everything
❌ Do not assume the sign means every form of glass is suitable for the recycling stream.
❌ Do not use the sign as a substitute for your waste contractor's accepted-material instructions.
❌ Do not leave the sign pointing towards the wrong container if bins or recycling stations are rearranged.
Make the disposal choice obvious
✅ Align the sign directly with the mixed-glass container it identifies.
✅ Position it within the normal approach sightline so the message can be understood before an item is deposited.
✅ Keep the face visible and unobstructed, and check its position whenever the recycling area layout changes.
Frequently asked questions
What are Mixed Glass Bottles And Jars WRAP Recycling Signs used for? They identify containers or recycling points intended for mixed glass bottles and jars, helping people recognise the correct waste stream before disposal.
Does mixed glass mean every type of glass can go into the container? No. The sign identifies a bottle-and-jar recycling stream; it should not be taken to mean that every type of glass is accepted. Follow the collection rules provided by your council, site or waste contractor.
Which size should I choose? Choose H 210 x W 148 mm for close-use locations, H 297 x W 210 mm where the sign needs to be recognised from farther along the approach, and H 420 x W 297 mm where earlier identification is useful in a larger recycling area.
Should I choose Rigid Plastic or Vinyl? Choose according to the mounting surface and installation arrangement. Vinyl has a self-adhesive backing, while fixing materials for the Rigid Plastic option are supplied separately.
Can the sign be displayed directly on a recycling container? Yes, container mounting is a confirmed fitting option. Position it where the message remains visible during normal use and is not obscured when lids, doors or surrounding containers move.

Companion signs for glass bottle and jar collections
If clear glass is separated from mixed glass, add clear glass bottle and jar recycling signs at the dedicated collection point. This makes the colour-specific option easier to recognise before disposal.
For a broader glass collection, consider glass waste recycling signs where the stream is not limited to bottles and jars. They provide a more general message for sites handling varied glass waste.
Where non-recyclable household waste is nearby, use household waste sorting signs to show users the alternative route. A clear contrast can help keep mixed glass collections cleaner.
To compare additional household streams, browse recycling signs for household glass and waste and select only the messages that match your actual containers. This keeps the recycling area useful without adding unnecessary signage.
