The Mobius loop—the “recycling symbol”—is three chasing arrows. Each arrow represents one part of the recycling “loop”.

Recycling is the process by which materials are collected and used as “raw” materials for new products.

There are three steps in recycling:

• Materials are source-separated and collected.
  
• Materials are processed and manufactured into new products.
  
• Consumers purchase the goods made with reprocessed materials.
