In a [[Circular Economy]], the value of products and materials is maintained for as long as possible. Within the circularity discussions both 'Closed' and 'Open' loops are referred to:
* '''Closed Loop Recycling''' (where the recycled material is used to make another product in the same category i.e. plastic water bottles being used to make new plastic bottles)
* '''[[Closed Loop Recycling]]''' (where the recycled material is used to make another product in the same category i.e. plastic water bottles being used to make new plastic bottles)
* '''Open Loop Recycling''' (where recycled material is used in a different application in a different product i.e. plastic water bottles being used to make fleeces and sleeping bags)
* '''[[Open Loop Recycling]]''' (where recycled material is used in a different application in a different product i.e. plastic water bottles being used to make fleeces and sleeping bags)
