Join us for a tour of Ripple Glass in Kansas City, Missouri followed by Happy Hour at Boulevard!
Ripple Glass was born in 2009 out of a Kansas City brewery's passion to run a zero-landfill business. Keeping beer bottles out of landfills was just the beginning, as Ripple helps more and more glass achieve a second life. Over 1 billion glass bottles have been saved from landfill since 2009, and over 800 tons of glass is collected every week.
PPE Requirement
PPE is required. Please bring a hardhat, safety glasses, high-visibility vest, and steel toe shoes. Limited quantities of hardhats, safety glasses, and vests will be available on-site.
Happy Hour
