Klaas kan alles TV show - Episode "Glas Tester" (Season 11)

Description

For one day, Klaas is going to be a glass tester. Yes, that really exists! And it is not an easy job. A glass tester’s research is on glass that does not get recycled and could possibly be recycled. Today only glass packaging gets recycled, and that is a shame. So, a glass tester tests if glass from, for instance, windows, oven doors, and television screens could also be recycled.

For this special profession we will visit the Technical University of Delft. Here they have a glass lab in which research is being done into how glass can be a useful material in construction. They have developed glass bricks and pillars with a special kind of glue. With this they already made different building structures. You could even have seen them already! For example, the Crystal Houses in Amsterdam. We will visit the researchers behind the realization of this building! They work in the lab.

Telesilla and Faidra will introduce Klaas to the wonderful profession of glass tester. They will guide him in the lab through all the steps that belong to the profession. These professors know everything about glass and the recycling of it. Does Klaas have this same talent? Let’s find out.
