Glass is made from silicon, or sand. However, sand is not renewable in the way we understand the term. It will not come back after it has been used. But there are very large supplies of sand.

Is glass renewable or non renewable resource?

Yes, technically speaking it is. A range of glasses are found in—and formed by—nature. Through volcanoes, the act of time, micro-organisms, and lightning. So technically speaking it is a natural resource, in the eyes of most scientists. So even though, I am a trilingual speaking kid, I got a more researched answer, than these washed-out old boomers, that don't understand modern science.

Is glass sand a renewable resource?

Glass can be considered to be a renewable resource as it can be recycled into new glass products. It is beneficial for glass producers to recycle glass because it takes considerably less energy to recycle than to make new glass.As a bottle, it is re-usable. It is only two decades or so since milk and soda were sold in glass bottles that were returned and re-used many times over. In this case, even the cost of melting and reforming the glass is saved and the bottle could be used hundreds of times.
