Recycle Reminders

Press Release Summary:
Throughout the years, the recycling industry has invented variants of the symbol to
distinguish each category of recycling (paper, plastic, glass, metal, etc).
Attempting to prevent confusion between the various types of recycling, they have
tried to standardize each kind. However, there are still many deviations of the
recycling symbol, both regulated and not, which can make it even more complicated.

The American Paper Institute (API) promoted four different variations of the same
mobius loop to distinguish different recycling purposes. The solid black mobius loop
or one with simply a white outline was used to identify material that was
recyclable. The other two kinds, either black on white or white on black, had the
mobius loop surrounded by a circle. They were used for material that was made of
recycled paper, with the white-on-black version to be used for 100% recycled paper
and the black-on-white for a mixture of recycled and non-recycled paper. The
percentage of recycled paper that is used in the material is often written in the
center. Recycled paper, as well as containing recycled paper, can be recycled as
well, often reused in another product whose material requirements are less rigid.


Although there are many variations of the mobius loop recycling symbol, it is
extremely important that each kind can be distinguished and recognized. And, while
it is the recycling industry's responsibility to remind consumers, it still is your
duty to take action and recycle.
