![<p><strong>Recycled</strong></p>
<p>Materials, fabrics, fibers, and yarns that are recycled. The raw materials, natural materials, and synthetic materials come from either post-consumer-waste like PET bottles, or from post-industrial-waste such as paper manufacturing, and are then reworked either chemically or mechanically.</p> Recycled](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_RECYCLED.png)

![<p><strong>Circular product</strong></p>
<p>The life-cycle of a product starts with its concept or design, and is followed by production, sales, use (with or without maintenance to make it more durable / longer in use)... Somewhere along the life cycle of the products, it loses its value for the user and ends up as waste (on an official disposal site or in nature). If the product remains unused, it is called a ‘lose end’ whereas the end can also be a new beginning if the loop is closed. To compost, biodegrade and recycle a material, there are different ways to keep it in use and thereby extend the life-cycle/loop. </p>
<p>In addition to the close loop principle, "Cradle-to-Cradle" is a specific term used to describe clothing in a cycle. Instead of afterwards considering the options of how the material can be recycled at the end of its use, the best composition of the material is considered in advance in order to return it to the closed loop. The materials are thus spared of any unnecessary recycling processes.</p> Circular product](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Circular_product.png)
